Well today's task is to do a MASSIVE tidy of my house. Living in a cottage for a week where it was tidy and you could find stuff was a reminder to me that that's how I want to live.
It's going to involve a HUGE chucking out session and many a trip to the chazzer shops but it'll make me feel better. An organised house is an organised mind is an organised life.
Bring it on!!

Morning
I'm cross :mad:
I didn't get nearly enough tidying done yesterday (I think I was still very tired after my 12 hour drive on Friday!) so the house is still in a state that I'm not happy with!
Can't do much about it today though - I've a 6 hour meeting which starts at 10am and I'm an hour away from the venue, so I'd better get my sorry bottom out of bed and get myself moving!! There's a packed lunch to make as I refuse to pay for a less than value for money hotel lunch!!
Financial news:
Received my statement from Mr T and they're asking for £42 minimum payment by 2nd October - already got that saved and more so I'm a happy bunny. For now anyway!!!
Have a great Sunday everyone! Pax vobiscum!

I really really need to remember this - I'm currently sat with the view of a thousand toys out on my living room floor. Looks like Toy'r'us threw up in here :eek:Thistlewhistle wrote: »Well today's task is to do a MASSIVE tidy of my house.

Becoming very sick and tired of InboxPounds survey site. It keeps kicking me out very close to the end after I've given my responses and then claims I wasn't eligible or the surveys closed.
So basically they get my responses without having to pay me for my time.
Shocking way to do business
