    Morning all :hello:

    Hugs all round methinks :grouphug:

    Maybe I should change my flylady name to Weekend Willi :o The weekdays just get swallowed up somehow: sleep, eat, work, slump in front of tv, eat. sleep, repeat. I am definitely in hibernation mode. Tired this morning thanks to the wind hoolieing all night, but I am up :D and dressed :T I've supped my brew and put DS's old work shoes in the bin - I must have been operating on sixth sense when I bought him a new pair for Christmas :cool:.

    Is anyone in touch with Lamewolf? If you are reading this LW I'm thinking about you matey xx

    Anyone want to join me in a HHC starting at 9.15?

    Having a cuppa so I'll pass on this HHC but I have taken the dogs for a long walk which blew the cobwebs away, washed up and put all the rubbish and recycling out.

    The roof felt is not ours so will be returned to its owner later.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    How did you get on, Round?

    In my HHC, I:
    Swept the kitchen floor, decrumbed the toaster and the work surfaces;
    Cleared the ironing pile;
    Sorted the clean washing including the sock mountain;
    Tried to work out how to best replace the broken zip in DD’s school skirt. Work in progress;
    Packed bag for my wait at the stables while DD rides;
    Hung up newly washed washing indoors.

    Better than doing nothing, so thank you for the challenge :D

    Morning. I've been up since 4.30 when I gave up trying to sleep, so windy. I've stripped a bed and remade it and dusted and vacuumed all through upstairs and down the stairs. Washing is just spinning and I'm going to chance putting it out - I hope it doesn't blow away. I've got a sore throat and cotton wool for brains so it's all a bit uphill. Dog sitting a bit later but only for an hour.

    Three lots of washing on the line. I rather suspect they will be dry soon :rotfl:

    Yesterday was intense - no support in the morning and PE in the afternoon, with equipment that I had to move out of a shipping container (storage) at lunchtime and back again sharpish at 3:30. This involved much walking up and down.
    Had beams out (at just above floor height) and children were much amused when I modelled the activity on a flexible beam - and it sagged. I moved onto a more rigid beam. :rotfl:
    Only a week until half term.

    Still sitting down, have read the paper and done some puzzles but forgot to mention before that muddy dog towels are in the machine so that's something. Have just given DH a job to do and he's also done the menu plan for the week.
