    Thanks Pigpen. I'm going to try to be in this week.

    LW - I had the same email last week. I use that account for work so need to get it set up sooner rather than later!

    CY - Hope there's an alternative available for you xx

    Today I aim to reclaim downstairs from dirty dishes, laundry and the chaos caused over the last week or two. I also desperately need to update my budget for the month. Handing out money left right and centre the past week means I have no idea where I am. :o The ironing will take a lot longer than half an hour. Probably a few hours looking at the pile and I need to grab a shower before I go out to work tonight...

    Personal
    Set up new email account
    Do surveys
    Finances
    Clear ironing pile.

    Magnificent Monday - Living room, hall, stairs and porch!
    Level Two
    Vacuum the floors.. stairs too!
    Vacuum under furniture you can safely move!
    Vacuum sofas
    Level Three
    Wash the windows
    Wash any soft furnishings that need it
    Wipe down ALL the paintwork!
    Extras
    1. Dust all the electricals.. carefully.. don't want any frazzled flybodies
    2. Binbag dance
    3. HHI
    I best get on with the accounts. I have a drawer full of receipts I need to sort through and cash scattered as well. :o Washing is on, and some bits that were still damp are already back out on the washing line along with the rug which stinks. :wave:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Mrs MP - mines o2 so I assume LW is as well ;)

    I've opened all the windows upstairs (remembered to switch the heating off before hand), tided up the bathroom, tided DD's room, put the quilt cover on her quilt :mad:, tided up my bedroom including chucking some bits and brought my make-up brushes down for DD to wash tonight. They were used last week for her cosplay makeup so she can wash them! WM is on its second load and I've hung the first out, cleared my personal email account, and I'm going to get my accounts done now while I have my 3rd coffee of the day and some dishes soak :wave:

    Alternative chemo vibes for cy

    Been to the gym and bought Quark to make frosting for tonights carrot cake. Now feel the need for a nap. There are plants to go in, and the weather is gorgeous. Hmmm. Decisions, decisions.
