    Morning :hello:

    That was a long week for a short week! Done now :D

    WM has finished swishing, so I need to reload and get second load swishing. Not going to rain til later so I need to get some clothes on and start pegging out. Trying to motivate myself here - can you tell ;)

    Picking up DS and GF from the airport tonight - I have written directions, maps and have gone over the route in my head so many times it should be fine....

    Right - crack on....

    Hugs to all

    Me again :D

    Washed and dressed, made the bed, sloshed bleach in the loo, fed the birds. put out the rubbish and recycling, hung out first load of washing - second load swishing. I'm having a second cuppa with some toast. Only one bowl of pots to WUDUPA :T and I'm going to order a Mr T delivery online to take advantage of the £12 off voucher they kindly sent me ;)

    I like pegging out washing :D I have starlings feeding their young in the outhouse roof, pigeons nesting in the conifer, NN has put up a fence which makes my garden private - thank you very much :D There are bluebells and cornflowers to replace the daffodils - and a lawn full of daisies....which the fairies have been and painted pink at the edges. The honeysuckle is out. And the parachute plane is climbing high in the sky - and I'm not in it waiting to jump out :eek: - all is well with my world. Shhhhush don't tell ;)

    Rxx

    ETA - I need to peg out washing more often - it obviously promotes mindfulness!

    Washing on line.
    DW emptied
    Kitchen tidied; pots washed after I cleaned drainer of yesterdays. Recycling tub emptied. Slow cooker pot binned (cracked) - replacement found online but currently OOS - as long as P&P isn't too hideous I'll order.
    Rabbit running round garden.

    Valli's Very Grand And Ambitious Plan To Restore Some Order

    1 - clean kitchen
    2 - clean bathroom (thus using steam mop efficiently)
    3 - clean dining room
    4 - clean hall and stairs
    5 - clean LR
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    Second load pegged out - more fresh air savoured
    Third load swishing - I went up and changed my trousers so I could put the pair I was wearing in the wash :D

    Dogs have been collected, I have had more sleep, am washed and in clean pyjamas. Annoyed that today is a write off as the weather is lovely.

    You're all achieving so much. More sleep now required here!
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Serendipity - I fetched in the washing as the temperature had dropped and I didn't think it would dry any further - and ten minutes later it chucked it down!!! Washing is safely ensconced on airer and radiators and I'm :D

    With a heavy heart I have news. Dancepops died yesterday evening after a massive bleed on his brain on Thursday morning (day he was supposed to go home).

    Some stuff sorted out and shopping done for dancegran x
  • Dancemum I am so so sorry to read this, my thoughts are with you xxx
