Morning all

Didn't get that much done yesterday as I was out for hours. Walked another 10 miles and ended up helping DD out with some stuff on the computer when I got in. This means today we have a house to clean and an hour before DD needs to think about getting sorted to go out with her dad :eek: Starting the lists from scratch as so little has been done this week. Going to edit out the stuff that doesn't need doing, and I'm determined that if we're having a day out tomorrow, this house will be clean and the shopping will be done before bed tonight!

Any flinging has been scrapped as I can't clear anything else to the charity shop as there's no room to store it and rubbish gets binned as we go along. Bed changing has also gone as that happens every Sunday (or maybe Saturday for mine). Time to get moving! See you in half an hour :wave:

DD has just left so I'm going to have a drink, and a small break until 11 then I'll take the stuff upstairs and clean up there. Shouldn't take much as upstairs doesn't get as dirty. I wonder if I can manage to have a shower as well before she gets back? :think: :wave:

Up at 6.30, not bad at all. Poppet is sleeping over 8 hours a night with not a squeak from her. No accidents this morning either. She is now asleep on my lap again, having shredded a newspaper.

Well done Poppet. :T Have a puppy-hug from Auntie Wolfy.

*Sigh* Mr LW is reading out loud from the newspaper he's just been out to buy. Trouble is, he's facing away from me (sitting on the floor with the broadsheet paper spread out in front of him) so I can barely understand one word in three that he's saying.

Bedlinen changed and the dirty stuff washed and out on the line.

I realise with some shame that I still haven't removed the Ronnie nose-art from the back and patio doors. :whistle:

I decided to clean out the fridge, write a shopping list and have some lunch instead of working upstairs. :rotfl: Just put a new ironing board cover on...that'll be the 4th one this year as DD keeps damaging them (although the last 2 were due to them being cheap ones which melted!).

We have flown in the garden!

Old raggedy stuff removed, clematis cut right back and kids detached them from the obelisks, plus the crispy bean plant. They worked hard today! We've topped up pots and planters from the bottom of the compost bin, given it a good "stir" and topped it up with freshly mown grass cuttings
Swept everything up and tidied away all tools and bit of vegetation lol

Kids have played out but they are annoying each other- first full week back tiredness I think.

Won't be around much tomorrow - football and swimming to work around!

Uniforms are washed. Tomorrows washing will be the towels. I haven't mopped the floor as DD went to do her homework instead.

Right now I'm off to bed. I have a list of "they take a while" jobs to do tomorrow so I want to get up early and get them done as we have plans from about 11am. Of course those plans depend on when I manage to turf DD out of bed and into the shower.

Night all :wave:
