  • Morning all :)

    I'm on it today! Have to be, got a huge list. Slightly tired this morning but that will solve with a coffee. Me and OH stayed up late watching a film. Bossy I despair with the amount of homework my children get. They are five and seven and I have had to do a homework planner with them to make sure they get it all done. Reassuringly though I complained about the younger ones workload and the teacher basically said it is ridiculous and silly and don't make her do it if she doesn't want to.
    Dusty I read "Ring fence man " as 'ring-fence man' and it made me chortle :rotfl:

    Here is my massive listy

    - Dw
    - Worktops
    - Make beds
    - Hhi
    - Kitchen floor
    - Walk dog
    - Swish and swipe
    - Vacuum living room and stairs and mop
    - Get birthday presents for molly and ciara
    - Clean bathroom radiators and woodwork
    - Empty and clean out a kitchen cupboard
    - Tidy up patio and path
    - Declutter bathroom floor and hoover and mop it
    - Clean bath shower sink bog
    - 15 mins clearing bottom our wardrobe
    - wm
    - Empty a bin
    - Plant those new plants
    - mow lawn
    - Change children bedding
    - Clean the worst windows
    Drop off bags at charity shop

    * Tidy living room/dining room/kitchen
    * Dust/Polish
    * Vacuum the entire house
    * Clean bathroom
    * Steam floors
    * Declutter third bedroom
    * Sort out wardrobes
    * Change bedding
    * Do an online shop
    * Sort through any admin

    Feeling and returning the love on the thread x

    Not done much flying today. The ground floor has been hovered, DH has s/s the kitchen and I found my car tax form and did it online.

    I have a haystack of ironing to do. Radiator chap has not been yet, it's DD1's friend's BF so I don't feel I can hassle him.

    Ginge went back to fracture clinic. They are going to take the scaffolding out of his leg as it is rubbing on his tendon. He had the pre-op checks and the op could be as early as tomorrow.

    Went out without DH last night he has cold (manflu). It was a barn dance which was great fun but it hadn't been advertised. We were the youngest in the room and we have all celebrated our 40th birthdays in years past! I danced with the vicar who baptised DD2 which was a bit weird!


    CY I hope you have a good day. It's lovely and sunny here in Essex. Is the sunshine countrywide?

    Afternoon all. Hope you're all ok. I've been lurking only the last few days and only really keeping on top of the dailies with DHs help as the paid stuff has been so busy.

    Today, I thought I was going to a crafting day, turned out to be a craft fair, so after spending £10 I hadn't intended to, I came home and made Christmas cards and tags as I was in that frame of mind.

    And I've read the paper. Will have a think about flying tomorrow.

    Off to walk the dogs now and a night out with DH.

    Must remember to always only have a rant at someone if it is really justified. We don't always know what is going on with them and usually the issue isn't the fault of the person at the end of the rant.

    Ok lecture to self over.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Afternoon all. Feeling and returning the friendship and support found in this thread. This is one of my all time favourite places on the internet. So much support for everyone.

    The sun finally emerged here early this afternoon. It is genuinely lovely here now. Today would have been my parents 56th wedding anniversary. Sadly my mum has been widowed for 27 of them. Some years she odes notice, but this year she has. My sister is seeing her today. I will ring her tonight.

    Have done some ironing and now having a rest whilst watching the rugby.

    DH has stewed some apples with blackberries from the garden, so crumble for tea it is. I love autumn...

    Hope everyone is having a good day..

    kerching!!!!!!!!!
    I have a claw hammer you can borrow if you want to sell the stuff that is currently nailed to the floor.:rotfl:

    Towel wash finally done, as Mr LW was here to peg it out. He has also mowed the [STRIKE]jungle[/STRIKE] back lawn - with the best will in the world, I think I'd have knocked myself into the middle of next month if I'd tried to do it.

    Dogs have so far had three walks out of today's four, and have just had their dins, so they have nice full tums.:o

    Battle with finance spreadsheets has been won.;)
