WM and DW on will put robot vacuum cleaner on before I leave in a minute. DD2 room passes level 1 already apart from a dust of the skirting boards. Her window sill on the other-hand has "displays" of toys which she hasn't played with for ages. I may need to have a chat before removal as I think removal means charity shop. Off for a busy but fun day.

Just the 7 here - and they are great little-hot-water-bottles!!
Flying (in an aeroplane) this time next week so plenty of sorting and packing to be done. I have lots of lists!!!
I'm all for pet rodents, but as yet our 'tenants' haven't offered cuddles; just the potential for chewing through the solar panel and other cables in the loft!!
Have a great trip.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0 -

Morning,
I have a couple of hours before I have to take DD to her hospital appointment in the Big City. Spare posivibes always welcome.
So theoretically that is a couple of hours to fly. I have succeeded in emptying the dw, switching on the wm, and will now tackle the (thankfully small) ironing pile. Downstairs loo and ensuite are also on the list, so I'll see how I go.
Traces of the large variety of furry things found at work yesterday. Now I'm getting paranoid about where they might be hiding in the house!
I hope you're not all getting blown away - the wind is howling around here atm.0 -
There is a stong wind here as well, bringing down the last of the leaves.
Last day at work, finding everything I need to hand back in!
DW unpacked here as well

It was a good job I prepped my lunch and breakfast last night, as I overslept only 15minutes but too much to lose out of a befor ework morning

Morning all. Not a lot of flying going on here but the basics are done. About to start work so will see what I can fit in between shifts.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.0
