    Ok, so Juliejim and Valli, what did you get done in your HH?

    I've been puzzling and no JJ, I'm not even thinking of training, just frustrated that I can't do what I'd planned.

    Just having a cuppa and fudge.

    Have emptied baking cupboard, topped up dark brown sugar jar, wiped cupboard inside and out, decanted cocoa into a jar, discovered jam funnel excellent when decanting dry goods, labelled cornflour and cocoa jars. Checked use by dates. Thrown ood suet. Emptied bin. Emptied recycling bin. Washed out dishwasher filter.

    Kitchen now looks worse than when I started :rotfl:

    I am, therefore, carrying on. With the help of Craig Charles' funk and soul classics. Land of 1000 dances to start! Woot!

    I've gutted the fridge, had everything out, cleaned all the shelves and put everything back. I've just had some HM mushroom soup for dinner and might think about doing the tip run shortly.

    I was with you too - just didn't realise! Sorted kitchen grot, just need to wipe cupboards down and mop floor, oh and empty DW.

    Cleaned piggies out.

    Made a spot of lunch, took DD to party, collected a friend for DS on way home and here I am, with coffee in the other room. They are wittering about supercars so I've left them too it, lol.

    Need to wash piggy beds, empty dehumidifier, sort pe bags and book bags. Oh. I'll set my alarms again :( not sure if I'm relieved they're going back to school or not :rotfl:

    My Windows have been open too - wearing a scarf and a fleece gilet, lol

    I joined in with you but to be honest felt an intruder. I always always lurk and follow you. I love the thread but will continue to sit in the corner and listen to you all. I do appreciate the daily kicks up the backside thank you all ��
