Oh dizzy poor you, I hope it misses you.

Well my house doesn't seem to look any better, despite barely sitting down all day. This morning was spent taking things back, finishing the Littlies Xmas shopping and popping to morrison$, to be served by the absolute slowest checkout person ever!!!! Since home I have, done the washing up, hung up the washing, changed May's bed, put all the vast amounts of washing away, clean the bathroom and floor and bath and feed the Stinkies, but that's about it. Will hVe to tidy up tomorrow, have crawled into bed now, have got the littlies cold so feel rather yuk and have stinky work tomorrow 'sigh'

Monday Mayhem - Living Room, Hall and Stairs

pigpen

Avon books sorted for DIL
kitchen cleared a bit more.
Added another page to my facebook.. for those on there.. apologies for spammage but I am trying to pay for Christmas and a solicitor and my house repairs.. I still have a wide open fireplace letting rain in.. I need about £5000 to sort it out but I am trying!
My kitchen is looking so much nicer.. I have the old fridge freezer leaving at the weekend.. and if I need another I will get one that is a lot prettier! that one is rather gross but going to reside in a shed so I doubt they'll mind too much.

My poorly tum is still crampy but I just appear to have more wind than hurricane Henry!!! lol

bossymoo

Oh piggers it's yuck, that's how I've been, horrible cramps but not the *ahem* obvious d&v symptoms. I found it better not to eat for a few days and I've been able to get back to normal food today. It's truly horrible- esp when you need to sleep xxx

I've done sweet fa, late out of work so didn't get any shopping, we have no bread and I've resorted to my UHT milk supply

DD sent to school on Calpol today (bad mother) she's been ok but temp of 39.1 tonight. Dosed her up for bedtime so she's fast asleep but very sweaty - hair all wet. Thankfully not her tum I hope she's escaped that. But a cough and fever for her. MIL is here and will decide in morning if school is happening or not. Gah.

Happy new furries-day froddington

I suspect flying might be off until Wednesday here...

Evening all :hello:


Sorry I'm soo late but I am here now Thanks Natty for this week's thread and Bossy for last week.


Sending gws vibes for all the poorlies and hope you stayed dry Dizzy. Well done with the Christmas cake CY - I love it but will not be making one as I've given up sugar and no-one else eats it


I stayed in all day waiting for my new freezer, which never arrived so a bit peed off :mad: I phoned them, they apologised but don't seem to know what's happening and sent me £8 as compensation - hardly think that covers a whole day and no promise of when !!!


I couldn't do the LR today as half the spare room is in there so the chaps could get the freezer in more easily haha, and didn't do the hall either as I'm sure they won't wipe their feet on the way through. So I did the kitchen and bathroom instead.


Monday Mayhem - Living Room and Hall
Vacuum floors and sofas
Dusting, even if around everything
Remove clutter
Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets
Water any thirsty plants, wipe their poor neglected leaves!!
Wipe light switches, sockets (make sure they are not switched on!!)
Clean any other glass like mirrors, pictures etc
Extra Mission:
Pick one or more of the following tasks –
Paperwork clearance.. spend 15 minutes minimum sorting through those piles of paper.
Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself
Ring someone you love, just to tell them you love them!!
Clear as may hotspots as you can.. see if you can get it all into one pile instead of 15!!!

Tantalising Tuesday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Wipe dining table..
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Extra Mission
Clean oven if you didn't do it last week
Get in a manky cupboard. Give it all GOOD scrub out before placing the things you need to use soon at the front, throw out everything you don’t want/need. If no messy cupboard do a food inventory!! Feel free to get carried away and do more cupboards!!!


Hugs, sticks and spoons all round
Hope you all have a super Tuesday

... I've got a juicer, so I think I will make some of that although it is very messy with lots of skin and stuff left over - one of those kitchen devices that seems a good idea but takes longer to wash up than to use!!

That's why we got rid of our juicer. I love the idea of drinking juice a lot, but not the cleaning of the machine! :rotfl:

Dizzy - Hope you stay safe!

Today was lost to cuddling the dog who wanted lots of attention including sleeping across my lap or work. I've got my orders sorted out, but thats basically it. DD helped me go to Mr A as bulky stuff was needed. I just seem to have wasted an entire day that I could have done without wasting.

Tomorrow I have to run errands. I have to pay money into the bank and return stuff then a load of other errands as well as make sure my paid work is done by 9.30pm (deadline is 10pm but I like to play it safe!).

My quiet week is filling up as my landlady knocked to check on whether the gas company had been in touch about replacing our boiler Apparently she's got us a really good one as I'm such a good tenant She also wanted her husband to pop in and fit a carbon monoxide alarm that would only take 5 minutes as it's just 2 screws. I said if it was that simple I could do it, which would save the dog and her husband getting stressed out with him being here. The smoke alarms currently up I've refitted as well as the thermostat for the heating so its not like I've not done it before :rotfl: Thats on the 'urgent' list for Wednesday night when DD gets in and I've had a chance to read the instructions so I position it correctly.

Oh well, I'm going to potter around my desk area clearing hot spots while I wait for my phone to finish charging. :wave:

Morning all. I'm up really early as OldDog started howling when DH left for the paid stuff.

Finances already sorted which look as bad as Piggers bank account but like LW I've also just booked next year's holiday.

CY - well done on the Xmas cake - mine is already BOUGHT, bad me.
Hope all the poorlies are feeling a bit better and that Dizzy didn't get flooded.

Plan for this morning is to do the dailies (I got nothing done before the paid stuff yesterday), tidy and clean in the gym and then take a look at the list (thanks Natty for that).

Have a great day everyone.
