Thanks Natty for the thread.
I'll be doing dailies and anything else will be a bonus as its my busy work week. DD is possibly going away on Friday this week. Ex has said its okay, but we'll wait until Thursday to make plans as something might come up. I don't think there'll be any dog walking tomorrow. Its set to be 20c by 11am, a high of 24c, and won't cool down until after 8pm according to my apps :eek: I think the windows need to be opened and I may have to dig the fan out....
Monday:
Dailies: Beds, dishes, laundry load?, S&S kitchen, S&S bathroom,
Work: Sort orders, cards, cards out to customers, newsletters
Book Mr A delivery for Tuesday
Make pasta salad for tea.
Right, I'm going to get this job done for work and then head to bed, after I've made it. :doh: :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -

Lynne, spag bol, curry, shepherds pie, crumbles etc can all be reheated in micro. when you cook just make extra, portion it up, freeze when cool, and let him take it to work. Well that is what I do for OH when he is on the late shift, at lunch times he take rolls / sandwiches.
Not a lot done so far this morning, but a loooooooooong list is made
Back to dentist as her cleaning machine thingy is working.

Morning, rushing in. Thanks for the list Natty, hope you are feeling a bit better. Hugs to Katiekat.
DS1 is at work again today. He is doing too much and not eating but I am trying not to worry. I just wish he would look after himself better.
So paid stuff x 2 but work no. 2 at home today. DS2 to pick up from school at 3.40, bring home, feed and take to work for 4.30. DS1 needs collecting from work anywhere between 4.30 and 5.30. I am back in town at 7pm for my gym class then DS2 needs collecting from work at 8pm.
Stew in slow cooker - I know its not really stew weather but at least there will be food for anyone who wants it! Kitchen and bathroom swished and swiped - I took cleaning stuff in the shower with me.
Right, got to run, DS1 and 2 to deliver on my way to work.0 -
Morning all. Hugs to KatieCat and thanks for the list Natty. Hope everyone else is ok.
I've been up since 5am as OldDog couldn't get her footing on the laminate floor when she woke up and got very distressed and wet herself. I've now put a rug down in 'her' room so hopefully it will help.
I've taken LittleyDog for a walk. OldDog will be able to join us again at the end of the week when her doggy stroller arrives. It's just too hot and she gets too tired now to walk very far.
Some advice for you all based on personal experience - do NOT fall asleep in the sun with a straw hat covering your face. The next day (today for me) you will look like a colander. Amazing what concealer and foundation can do though.
So having put my face on and booked today off the paid stuff, I am going out with DH.
I'll kind of be flying this week, but it's a bit of an odd one out of routine, so maybe just the dailies and essentials will get done.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all,
Hugs to Katie and natty.
Rushing in to say hi and will post list later. Manic weekend so nothing had been done and house looks like a bomb site!! Went to London yesterday with the kids.had a lovely day visiting the cutty sark and then mooching around London. Little miss went in the carrier towards the end and ds2 hopped in the pushchair. He's 4 so hasn't had a pushchair for a long time but we walked over 6 miles and it was very hot! He ended up nodding off and having a little sleep. Bless him!!!
Anyways will post list later.....Grocery challenge- feb 2015- £133.07/£2500 -

Quick Q ...
Has anyone changed GP recently?? I've really had enough of mine and need to change I think.. they are sloppy about getting DS3's meds out and I can't even get an appointment for anyone unless I know I'm going to be ill next week..
How long does it take usually?? How much faff?
DD1 is at a different surgery to me.. we both rang on Wednesday for appointments.. she had 3 the same day I was told to ring back the next day or I could have one for a week later even though I had a letter asking me to make an appointment! .. Needless to say that didnt happen.. I've still not managed to sort appointments for Pixies hernia, Squeaks ears or DS3's crazy meds (his description not mine.. but it has stuck)LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Good Morning ladies

Need a cuppa now before walking DS up to nursery and nipping into village on errands with DD.
