Hello
I'm here. I'm on a trip tomorrow though so I suppose I'll be on catch up later in the week.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
Thank you Honey Bear0 -
Morning all, I'm going to try again this week.
WM is on and I'm off to work.
Definitely not flying but trying to flap.0 -
Morning
Second attempt at getting back on the wagon. Trying last month just before I had work done in the living room which meant its contents were scattered through the rest of the house was never going to work.0 -
Hi everyone:wave: I've not been flying for a long time, but have come back in the hope of getting a bit more organised in the house. Will post again later. Hope everyone has a good day!0

Morning all :wave:
A quick update of what I've achieved so far:
- hung out WMx2 (rain expected this afternoon, but at the moment it's bright and almost sunny, with a bit of a breeze); Wmx3 is twirling, Wmx4 and 5 still to be done. This includes both lots of bedding, so getting ahead of myself for the week
- put away decorating tools that were cluttering up the utility
- started half-price gammon joint in the SC
- sorted fridge shelves
- made what DH's mum used to call "pot-pourri soup" for lunch out of the oddments from the fridge
- washed up
- wiped sides
- sorted pile of magazines etc on the kitchen table
- showered and dressed
- checked whether amaryllis bulbs are still alive from last year - yes to all 4 of them, but they have shrunk, so I doubt that they'll bloom this winter - however, they're worth re-potting
- played with Rosie up and down the stairs
- checked finances
- found a journal with plain pages in my stash
Next: do some more paperwork and at the same time tidy the study
Hopefully DH will make more :coffee: soon ...0 -
