  • Hello all,

    I'm back from a long weekend in the caravan. Weather lovely, everything else lovely and relaxing except for fighting children (I feel your pain last week Dizzy). So hope you are all OK and having a nice day. As for me, I'm unpacking and washing, and dabbling in a bit of the list as I go. Sounds like kids and OH are watching a film though, which seems a little unfair.

    Ps thanks for list Piggers x

    Evening all. Just back from a lovely day out with DH and I now have a supply of fudge to eat. Tomorrow, he will not go into work at all and we are planning a bike ride.

    Hope everyone is enjoying themselves.

    See you all tomorrow.

    Hello, I am a newbie that would like to jump in. It might take me. few days to get to grips with it though ����

    Today I have hoovered and washed/steamed the downstairs floors. Washed up several times. (no one else in the house seems to know what this is or how to do it) .i took rubbish from the kitchen out to the bin. Sides have been wiped several times too. Cooker hob wiped . have also de cluttered my dresser cupboard. I have decided to concentrate on one area each day, when I can, as the whole house overwhelms me. I have one black sack of that clutter currently in my car boot . I have cleaned the bathroom and toilet.
    The rest of the day has consisted of going to the woods and joining in with a forest school. ( mental health stress relief) and after I went shopping. I aim to wash up yet again and shine my sink before bedtime.
    In the meantime, I will have some me time and watch the soaps. I hope this post makes sense. I look forward to getting to know you all.xx

    Welcome Elaine. If it only takes you a few days to get sorted, you're doing better than many of us!

    All I've done since my last posting is pick a ton of rhubarb and made a pudding, done a heap of washing up then more gardening and report writing.
