Morning
Thank you for al lthe lsits.
Been cracking on this morning, as I was expecting workmen at 9am
Get a text at 8.50am to say 'been held up with weather over weekend will be with you tomorrow' and yes the weather was very bad this weekend here
My green house door blew off, so I've picked up the smashed glass, so the cat doesn't cut his paws, he came to see what I was up to, and cut his nose instead, !!
Wm x loads is on and a great heap sat in front of it for washing.
Whole house is hoovered, bagless thingy cleaned
Bins all done rubbish out
Food shopping done and away
Car taken for service, walked back from town.

Morning all

Welcome madamoiselle xx
Thanks for the lists, ladies, I'm here but following my own. Just sat with a coffee after chopping all manner of things for slow cooker Christmas chutney.
My plan today is to clean up after my mess, get the leftover bits in the compost bin, put green stuff on the lawn then dot to dot my way around the house.
If I have time I might shut my eyes later

1 lot of washing in.. 2 lots out.. it keeps raining a little so it can stay out.. it is mainly jeans and I am not putting those in the dryer! Next 2 loads in.. not quite full yet though.
Twinkle napping.. in her cot!!! Everyone out apart from DS2 who is due out shortly so it is just me, in peace.. it is BLISS!!! I should be doing to very many things and i am doing nothing.. nothing at all!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
I'm off-liste again this week, as much time/energy is being taken up looking after the delectable Bluebell.

However, pizza dough has been made, bread will be shortly, and Mr LW has been harangued into emptying the compost caddy on the drainer into the compost bin in the garden, and washing it out.
I'd hoped one of us would be able to cut the front lawn today (back has already been done) but it's raining again, so I guess the grass and the hawkweed will just have to grow a little taller.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
MOre sorting done, a draw that would hardly close, now closes with ease.
Piggers, you enjoy your time, if everyone is out or sleeping, you don't get that every often.......
Sort of sunny here, I am also haveing a test run of the central heating to check it works, all so far seems ok, cross fingers!Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100/100miles

Downstairs not looking too shabby
also greened the lawn, chopped at some shrubs and sorted the gone-over lilies.
Kids collected , missing lunch box retrieved, DD strop narrowly averted and she has been snacked and watered :eek: methinks she needs an early night
Can't seem to find all my kilner jars - oops - can you freeze chutney? I may have to...
No more jobs tonight other than food and its related mess. Crispy chicken pasta for us. Well, for them. I might have something different... Involving mushy peas - since I checked my store cupboard and I have seven tins lol
Whole house smells like vinegar...Bossymoo
