Welcome matody, I think I was in the attic when you arrived.
I'm kondoing as well, technically I'm still on paper but some things have been pulled in as I've come across them. Paper seems to keep calling me back so it's not finished with me yet.SPC~12 ot 124

We did some garden flying. Grass cut and re-seeded on bare patches. Tomatoes and beans fed and watered, and grass seed watered in. Weeds spritzed with eau-de-resolva and everything else locked away for the night.
Planning an afternoon out tomorrow - local council runs activity days in parks around the city and its coming to ours tomorrow. I believe it's free too :T
It's also the first day this week we don't have to wait in for anyone, lol.
I'm going to chase DD to bed I thinkBossymoo

Another bitsa day.
Vacuumed bathroom ready for fitter to put new flooring down. He made a good job - it was flooring left over from when we had the conservatory done, and needed just 1 join which you can't see at all.
Went to optician, ordered new specs.
Went to Mr S.
Vacuumed rest of upstairs.

More general emails/business/tax stuff.

Been to the Dockyard with Dad today which was lovely but does mean I haven't flown (again)
Still, I have nothing on at all tomorrow so will be able to achieve something off of the lists .........."There's only one way of life and that's your own" - Levellers

Well the plan went out the window! DD had a massive clear up in her room putting all her new school stuff away etc, I did 2 loads of laundry and we've tackled the understairs cupboard :eek: 3 full binbags of junk gone (including something saying use by Aug 2012
:eek::o), a couple of bits in the charity pile and about 6 empty boxes (if not more) ripped up and thrown in the recycling.
DD also bleached all the walls where it was growing mould.
Then inspired with the amount of flinging, I've books BHF to come and collect everything we have that needs to leave next Wed/ThursThats been on my list since January so it's something else done, and then I should have enough room to move stuff around while we decorate rooms.
So its a very late tea and then up early tomorrow as DD needs to be ready to leave at 4.30 and there's still loads of cleaning the needs doing.
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 -
Really productive day today. Downstairs has never looked so lovely (family room, dining room and kitchen) and living room and stairs look great too!
I managed to get all three kids in bed by 7.30. I swapped it around tonight and let ds1 and 2 stay up while I got little miss sorted. It could have been a fluke but will try to do the same tomorrow as it meant I had an hour before OH was home from his run. So living room has been cleaned and moved around a bit.
List for tomorrow...
