Hello busy lot, welcome to the gazillion new people and returners! Hope everyone is enjoying their sparkly kitchens. Lots of posts to read this evening so I'll just send random :grouphug: and :T.

As I'm still redecorating in the kitchen and a lot of the list got done when I cleared up the paint mess I'm just going to do microwave, the junk drawer and the oven this evening. I've no ironing if anyone wants a virtual half hour doing of their pile while I watch some TV later.

Well done becca, I need to know the secret of your success, I have the fear of stopping - which is madness..

TTFN

Yes we do Pollybear and it's not our cat's, it's the cat from across the road. He just loves sitting on our window sill. :rotfl:

Evening All!
Just finished the feeding of the Ginger posse together with the gentle cajoling (or some would say nagging) for DD1 and DS to do homework. Work pretty pants today - still only 5 weeks till our 2 week half term (hooray!!!!)
Right - time to fly! Scaled the ironing pile yesterday - must have been telepathic! Can't wash out washer drawer as is broken - so guess it's window sill cleaning!
Aiming for level 2 - with half an hour to do it all!
Tomorrow - off to see Vagina Monologues with Mummys from school - so will try to get level 1 done tonight and a hotspot session.
If I succeed the reward is a sit down in front of telly with DH - if not will sit down in front of telly in despair with DH!!
OK - best get started ....I'm scared of Pigpen!!!:rotfl:

Hugs to those who need!

Why thank you pigpen for my Tuesday's Tasks.

Tuesday Living Room and Stairs
Level 1
Vacuum floors and sofas
Level 2
Dusting, even if around everything
Wipe stairs
Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets
Level 3
Wipe light switches and banister
Clean any other glass like mirrors, pictures etc
Wash my coats and fleeces on the coat rack
Extra Mission
Pick one or more of the following tasks

• Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself
• Will phone up for my chimney to be swept - that was one of my weeks tasks, Pigpen you are defiantly a mind or rather house reader
  
• Wash throw from sofa (spilt tea on it about 3 weeks ago....:o)
  
• Clean oven if you didn’t do it last week

Weeks Tasks

• Split some logs and get them stacked ready for winter
• Go through the house (as each room comes up) finding things to go to car boot or ebay - i will reduce the amount i have in the house there isnt much at the moment but i just want the bare minimum!! Done the kitchen and removed 3 carrier bags of stuff :rolleyes: where does it all come from???
  
• Sort my wardrobe out. I put all my summer clothes away on Sunday and fished the winter ones out now to have a sort and see what i think i will actually use!! - i have far too many clothes and they are slobby ones from when i was a student now i have to buck my ideas up!

Im creating some space in my freezer for soups im making. Im just having to finish the tub of ice-cream that was sort of nearly (well ok 3/4) empty. Then i can fill my freezer tomorrow! mmmmm raspberry pannecotta ice creamy goodness.
