  • Evening,

    Morning all

    Didn't get much done last night but the monopy game is over (kids are not happy I won).

    Up early as DH has jetlag, i'm not impressed.

    Mogs fed. Another cuppa needed.

  • Morning everyone

    Pigpen you seem to have got rid of sooo much stuff over the last six months or so, it must be making a big difference. I am a bit addicted to this whole decluttering thing. I love throwing things out!

    Going out this afternoon. I have decided that DS and I will do something together one afternoon a week. It has to be virtually cost free so we need to be creative but it will do us both good.

    Will get OH to stick the sheets in the WM when he gets out of bed. Its pouring down and some of the washing is still out from yesterday but it can stay out now.

    Have a good Tuesday everyone x

    Morning lovelies :hello:

    Hope your backs feeling a bit better today poohbear

    Fingers crossed for your Mum today dusty

    Well done on the office clearing kazw

    Did not a lot after I got in from work yesterday, was exhausted, so took delivery of my food order and ferried dd2 about but thats pretty much it lol. Went to bed at 10 and had the most restless night ever, so not really on the ball today either but determined to at least sort my kitchen out and a few extras. Need to pull myself together :cool:

    DW on which i loaded yesterday :o will be sticking the WM on in a bit, and tidying up downstairs areas.

    Morning all. Hope all those with sore throats etc are feeling better this morning.

    I didn't do too badly yesterday, got the dailies done, cleaned the inside of all the windows and S&S'd each room, but didn't have time to look at the list.

    So far this morning, I have made chilli in the slow cooker for tonights tea and washed the dishes. About to get dressed to walk the dogs, will change our bedding while I'm upstairs.

    And then maybe look at the list.

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