    hello all

    was on the verge of posting earlier then Mum and Dad came. My wall lights and radiator are now off the wall in the LR so I can get the last bits of paper off the wall. We are decorating three walls (up to the window) as the window may be replaced soon; but the last bit will be easily finished if that happens.

    No kids here; DD working and DS - who knows?

    Bossy - glad the bike is back; I keep my side gate (garden/back access) locked even when I am in. I had a handbag snatched a while back.

    Hi all

    Nice to hear from you CY and glad to hear you sounding so positive.

    Lovely pic Bossy, your kids are as gorgeous as ever. Glad you got the bike back.

    Well its been a strange weekend. Drama here yesterday as my poorly NDN wasnt answering the phone to anyone. After hubby and another neighbour used ladders to look in all the windows I was all for calling the police and getting them to break the door down. Eventually we found out that he has been taken into hospital.

    De-cluttering continues. I have spent over 3 hours in DSs bedroom with his "help". I have been trying to ignore the mess hoping he would be shamed into sorting it out but it wasnt going to happen. Its not perfect, but it looks loads better, although I wish he cared a bit more about how it looked!!

    2 loads of washing out (quite a bit off DSs floor). 1 more in. Some clutter to go through and some bits and pieces to put away. I am flagging now though.
  • Hi all,

    Just popping in to post my progress hoping it will urge me on to get a bit more done. Not done too badly with the weekend list, and I have also been helping OH on and off with a treehouse. We thought we had better do it before the children are too old to enjoy it. Frame up, half the floor and a window. Going to be amazing!
    Anyway, glad everyone ok, lovely pic bossy.

  • Hi everyone - mia as the laptop had a stupid something that wouldn't go away - all sorted now. Thanks DH.


    CY - good news that you're doing OK. Glad the bike's back Bossy.
    Just about to do banking balances then need to get on even though it's Sunday.


    You're right Dusty - everything should stop for cricket - you'll miss it when there is no reason to go and watch/help out - we do.


    Take care everyone x

    Evening all :)

    Garden done
    4xwm done and dried outside

    I took a trip alone today to mat-lan ( not sure who posted they had gone to the sale) bought pjs for ds2, pants for ds1, socks for DH, and I got leggings. Also got a travel bag ready for holiday as all our bags have gone mouldy again. I think I will just buy some zip up laundry bags if I can find any as it is getting expensive replacing 4 bags each year.

    Then popped for frozen dinners and bread for my parents and delivered those.

    DH started stomping around when I came back.

    Hope you enjoy your day with your DH CY x

    Lovely photo Bossy x

    4 sleeps to exam results. It fever pitch here.

  • Evening,
    Nothing else done todayfrom my list apart from walking the dog, cooking and then eating a roast dinner, and two extra loads of washing because dd2 found fleas on the dog (argh!) so I've been busy washing all things she lies on. Will now spend night thinking about the blooming things and itching.
