    Hi everyone,

    I have a rare day off work today so my list for today is:

    * Washing, 2 lots done as yet
    * Tidy/dust and polish living room and dining room
    * Vacuum the entire house!!
    * Tidy and deep clean kitchen
    * Clean bathroom
    * Steam floors
    * Put clean washing away

    Hope everyone as a lovely day :j.
  • Bossy I am with you, I am so tired this afternoon, feel like I have run a marathon.

    I am trying to get through as much washing as possible while the sun is shining. DS does voluntary work which is outdoors and sometimes dirty and smelly. I know its not good washing his waterproofs too much but they are disgusting! Have got some of that reproofing spray so will give them a good spray when they are dry.

    I am going to make turkey burgers for tea with oven chips and salad. Then thats it for me today, what hasnt got done can wait until tomorrow. I am curling up with my book and stuff the housework.

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

    Oh yes.. and believe me I have spent a small fortune!

    CY massive amounts of recuperation vibes for you. x

    We're all packed, bar the last minute bits (such as my eye drops, which I have to use in the morning) and ready for a 09:00 start tomorrow.:o

    Back online Wednesday.;)

    Btw the only time I ever saw a clean sheep was when I went to a sheep-racing event at Masham, many years ago.:D

    no I didn't.. my radio wont get smoothchristmas and maybe just selling hand dyed yarns.. I love it! but I need to see if it is worth the bother and if there are any helping hands I can get and reasonable sources.. todays pretties just gave me the bug!
