    Well, tonight has been spent ironing! 2 hours later and there are just shirts left in the basket. I always leave them until last!!
    I have made a dent in the housework but still more to do tomorrow!

    List update...

    Meal plan - we're going to try a new veg each week for variety.
    Catch up on any paperwork- shredding!

    Organise a drawer or shelf.

    Write or update your toots list - anything you need to do before winter?
    Garden - have a wander and make a note of any gaps you'd like to fill, or changes to make

    Just the above to do and then I will look at the Thursday and Friday lists. Bathrooms definately need doing!:eek:

    Evening everyone :hello:

    Pigpen - the wool reminds me of when we all tie-dyed our t-shirts and thought we looked wonderful :laugh:

    CY - gosh, that sounds a bit scary. Glad to hear they let you out and you're back to your sofa safely. Now try to stay there :D

    I made a new-to-me recipe, Hairy Bikers special fish pie. Well, it came out rather well and even DH said it was good. It is rather rich and you don't need a huge portion. Definitely one to add to the list, though it did take a bit of time and the washing up afterwards was a horrendous :eek:


    Thumpin' Thursday - Bathroom / Study Area
    Wipe over the screen and antibac wipe the keyboard - when switched off!



    TFI Friday: Living Room
    Clear a hot spot.
    Wipe any grubby finger marks.
    Vac / wipe the sofas and chairs.
    Extras:
    Tell someone you love them!


    ((hugs)), sticks and spoons for anyone needing some


    Hope you all have a fabulous Friday

    Morning all.

    Glad you're back home CY, and glad the bus pass is too Nicki.

    I'm feeling a lot better today so plan to do some ironing before freshening up and facing two days worth of paid stuff to do.

    Have a great day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Morning all

    Packed day today so only minimal flying on the cards, starting with the shower room and some wasing.

    CY how scarey, wondered where you was. Hoping things go smoothly now.

  • Morning everyone

    Hope you are now enjoying the comfort of your own bed and are feeling a lot better CY.

    Nicki my son once "lost" his wallet. I cancelled his card and found that it was in the bag where it was supposed to be. Grrr.

    And Pigpen I see some sort of career in this. Is there such a thing as a professional wool dyer?

    Tired this morning. Flying has gone out of the window for the last couple of days as I have had voluntary work, meetings for DS etc. However I have kept on top of the basics. Will catch up a bit this afternoon.

    Right, better get ready for the paid stuff.
