Extra tasks list, as usual choose one or more

• 27 fling boogie time, time for that midweek fling, go on grab a bag and clear that clutter

Good morning :wave:

I am a happy bunny, I am a happy bunny, I am a happy bunny:j :j

My new dishwasher is working!!! Gave it one last try at 4pm to phone a plumber and he said: be right over.. done the job right, even re-sealed my sink, checked everything, agreed with me that the Currys "installers" were not really installers, just putting downers, see you later, kind of people. Only charged me what Curry's charged me (which I got refunded) so better off all around :j Needless to say, kitchen worktops were nice and clean last night!! It is just doing its first wash just now....:D

It has cheered me up no end, I can get so down when things go wrong, but I already have tidied my bedroom, just need to still:

dust and hoover (changed bedding a few days ago)
[strike]
Asda online shopping (free voucher)[/strike]
[strike]cleaned out big kitchen cupboard[/strike]
look out forms
post letters
hoover all the upstairs
washing/drying
ironing done 30 minutes last night, but there is more!
pick DD up from sleepover

I am so glad I cut the grass yesterday, I wasn't in the mood at all, but having it down on my list on here yesterday, I'd thought I better do it, and the weather has changed today, it's miserable so I am glad I did it.
THANKS PIGPEN FOR KEEPING ME MOTIVATED... :kisses3:

SPROGGI: Hope Dd gets better soon, kids with earache are so miserable, I hurts so bad, poor thing
embb: have fun "playing with OH" After doing the list ofcourse

Hi thanks so much for this my house is looking better already, try to do Kelly's mission etc but for some reason this seems easier. Think it is because I have a list to work through first thing in the morning rather than waiting until an email arrived. Is is the exactly the same every week?-if so hop I don't get too bored and one more question what is floordrobe clearance ? Does it mean clear out the bottom of your warbrobe?


Well Done VANILLA

lil_me

Well done vanilla, the trying has finally paid off really happy for all of you

embb- Yes, I know it's some list, hence the collapse in heap once it's done :rotfl: just managed to fill 2 huge boxes of kitchen stuff, dragged my old pans out so will pack my new ones up see hording can be good sometimes, new knives going over too as I kept my old ones.

mumoftwo great news on the dishwasher, my fave part of our new house too

nicki ((hugs)) hope you feel better soon

embb

I collapsed in a heap just reading it lil_me

:T :T Fab news vanilla :T :T

mumofjusttwo floordrobe means the clothes that are strewn about the floor.

Just cleared out my porch and stuffed everything that was in it back in the shed where it belongs, I can get to the TD properly now without breaking my neck so I'm pleased with that, just needs a good clean now, the windows are :eek:

embb

This is a bit out there but does anyone know of any good work at home jobs, computer? Think I need to be looking into it and this would be my first choice, I just don't know what they are etc etc.

Gonna hoover now and not sit at the pc....honest!

Morning All,
Have DD3 off with sickness and the 'runnys' as she calls them.
Going to probably do quiet stuff today cause she's just had a shower and been put back to bed.
So, will give our room a tidy, strip bed, go through drawers, list stuff on ebay turbo lister for tomorrow.
I've also got to strip the chicken that I had in the slow cooker yesterday and make a pie and will have to pick my car up from the garage at lunch time.
Here's hoping for a good, productive day...
(might have a quick coffee first, though....)
