I was crossing my fingers for the master bedroom today as I reorganised the wardrobes and drawers last night and have been left with piles of stuff everywhere.
Waiting for the bin and the recycling box to be emptied today so that I can fill them again and after taking a load of stuff up the attic now have a pile more to go up, grr! Will really, really, really have to get on sorting out up there as well as beginning to have visions of the ceiling falling in with the weight of all the stuff up there!

Wednesday - Master Bedrooms and Landings
Level One
[strike]Strip bed linen and wash, replace with clean linen[/strike]
Level Two
[strike]Remove floordrobe from the floor! [/strike]
[strike]Vacuum floors in these areas [/strike]
Level Three
[strike]Vacuum mattress[/strike]
[strike]Clean tops of drawers and wardrobes [/strike]
Extra mission tasks, as always if you fancy an extra challenge try one or more of these

• [strike]Clean windows in the bedroom, make sure you wipe the sill too [/strike]
• [strike]Check through a drawer, throw out what should have gone ages ago and organise that drawer [/strike]
• [strike]Sort through anything that is 'stashed' under the bed, might aswell give it a vacuum under there while it's empty [/strike]
• Clean a set of curtains, blinds or nets (clean the window before you put them back up!)
• [strike]
  
• Clean doors including handles downstairs
• [/strike]

• [strike]Pay cheque into bank[/strike]

[strike]Post ebay parcel - was waiting for others to finish but it's not until 9 tonight! Slightly worried as I have a book selling at £20.47 - I only paid £12.99 for it brand new - the price is even clearly stated on the cover in the photo - don't want the buyer coming back and saying it was too much![/strike]
Ironing
[strike]Take OH's junk, I mean treasured possessions up the attic[/strike]
Attic, attic, attic!

Doing quite well really, only have to go up the attic (will do while DD at youth club) and do the little bit of ironing that is in the basket.

Got into a tricky situation - climbed into bedroom window to clean it, managed fine but REALLY struggled to get back down - hope no-one was watching from outside!

Posted ebay parcel, got home to find out the other one finally been paid for - taough, whill have to go tomorrow now as not going back out with it!

Great news on the job, Rach!

thanks for all the good wishes I am just over the moon as they have really bent over backwards for me: i have to work 12 days between 4th jan (when the funding starts) and 1st march when i start full time, but some of that will be able to be from home etc. just so good to know that we will be fine for money and can hopefully rent the nice little house OH is seeing tomorrow (fingers crossed!). it looks lovely from the pics and like a proper little home for us, and away from the main road which i am fed up of living by!!

i have a long meeting tonight but i bet i will contnue to smile all the way through it!

water is dripping through my study ceiling onto my desk which is not good but have phoned landlord....

Congratulations Rach on your new job!

Hi everyone!

I am absolutely shattered! That'll teach me to stay up late on a school night! I went to a makeup party upstairs, and we all got talking, and I didn't go to bed til gone midnight and I had to be up at 7am!

In answer to your question about the supply teaching Jill, it is going quite well although it seems like I've been doing it a lot longer than 3 weeks now. I was in one of the schools I liked today all day, with year 1s, but the schools I'm in tomorrow and Friday are tough schools, so I'm not looking forward to the end of my week. I'm hoping that I'll start to be given some easier schools soon, as I seem to be given tough ones most of the time, cos they think that I can handle the children well, which is nice to know, but it is a lot more stressful for me, and my voice is really feeling the strain.
That breakfast with santa sounds really nice - shame about the idiot in the cafe though - I can understand him being a bit stressed if he was on his own, but that wasn't your fault, and he should have realised that you had a lot to cope with with the little ones.

Congratulations to tia and mumofjusttwo on your anniversaries. Hope you have a nice romantic evening.

lil_me I hope that your face is feeling a little better.

LJD1 I'm glad you've managed to block those numbers.

embb I forgot to say the other day, that your hamper looked really nice - where did you get the box for the contents from, cos I've got some Lush bath stuff that was given to me last year, and I need to re-wrap it so that I can give it to somebody who will appreciate it?

Well jacket potatoes are in the oven and have 15 minutes left to go, so I'm looking forward to having cheesy beans jackets with yellow stickered caesar salad from Sainsburys (75p) for dinner. Think it'll be an early night tonight for me.

Feel shattered now. Have only just got the kitchen straight. Still have swish and swipe to do and have made no progress on today or yesterdays' list. Got to do the football run in a minute and then get DS3 ready for bed. Oh well tomorrow is another day.

Really missing DS2 on his school trip now.
