    Evening all x

    Ironing done

    Took ds2 to the cinema and to mr S to buy some long sleeved tops. He has grown overnight.

    Part of our conservatory trim has blown off so I will have to investigate a repair.

    Went to get our tree with DS1 and GF, they have put theirs up and decorated, mine is in the garden in a trug of water.

    DS3's team lost their cup final, he was really upset.

    Going to do a couple of bits on here and usher DS3 to the shower, can't believe that is another weekend done.

    Paid stuff tomorrow and I know from a colleague that woman I work with/for has a cob on with me, will be fun with just us two in the office.

    oooh.. exciting.. I forgot to share... I had my very first Etsy sale last night!! Please let it be the first of many!!

    Kitchen almost cleaned.. I've done the units and half the worksurface and put the shed stuff away and made it neater.. there is still simply too much stuff in there.. I will deal with that next.. but it is much improved. The light in the fish tank suddenly started working again too.. bizarre!


    cuppa and a sweetie hunt I think..

  • Hi,

    Hope everyone's ok and is safe?

    Haven't done this for ages but could I please join this week?? I will probably only be doing Level 1 but will add a bit of level 2 if I can.

    Thanks,

    Tea

    ugh

    Not a well Valli - who'd be a laydee?

    I have, however, cleaned the kitchen and made a start of the DR

    the 'dust' is so THICK that I have resorted to washing the stuff off my glass ornaments - which is good as it makes them super-sparkly

    I have also been taken to a flat to help the occupant sort his address labels out for his Christmas Cards and, in the process, saved him from being murdered by his wife, who's had enough or my Mum who was originally drafted in as IT expert but he lost all the files...so I retyped all addresses into Excel (he'd used access :eek: then lost them anyway :eek::eek:) and done the mailmerge and printed them off. Plus I have now been inside the former workhouse so chuffed about that as I have previously stood outside, and gazed, on school trips to look at Victorian Spiretown!

    I have promised to write an idiot guide for mailmerge for both the bloke and my Mum :rotfl:

    And I have thought about Christmas.:rotfl:
