    Morning all

    DH now has the cold and has sniffled and coughed through the night leaving me short on sleep and short on temper!! He’s just gone off to work in a huff cos I snapped at him. Feel a bit guilty now but I don’t do well on too little sleep!

    Anyway... flying...

    WM is swishing
    Aired and made bed
    Other dailies done

    Just making a cuppa then will start paid stuff. It’s slightly milder here today so am going to get out for a walk later on.

    Back later with progress report x

    First of two wash loads just finishing in machine. I've had my hair cut - dry cut as I couldn't face lying back to have it washed. Very MSE too.

    Have taken more painkillers and emptied the kitchen bin. Dishes are also washed but don't think I'll get any other jobs done today.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Wood order arrived today and decorator is due to start tomorrow. These two things are not really compatible. So, post bedtime tonight I need to:

    Tidy the cellar a bit
    Take all log bags down to the cellar
    Take all toys up to Pickle's room
    Prep living room & dining room for decorator.

    Hopefully back later with a positive update.

    Keep flying everyone.

    Made the work deadline by staying just over the hour.
    Dashed down to big town and bagged a few Xmas bargains that were not only on my list but also 25% off. Including some cards at half price. :money:
    Did a huge food shop to make up for the fact that DH’s shopping skills for the past couple of weeks has left us running on empty. Left all my bags helpfully in the car.

    Dashed back. Put another wash on while I put away all the shopping. Back out again to offload 2 bags to the cs and also pick up 3 good as new Christmas jigsaws in same cs. Also on my list.

    I’ve done HH paperwork while reheating some leftovers and now it is off out to taxi DD to college. Back to work tomorrow for a rest. And the bathrooms still not cleaned.

    Full day of paid stuff, I did not feel at all productive today so the day dragged by!
    Wash put on airer with another load in the machine ready for tomorrow
    Bins emptied and washed out
    Top up shop done of some items that were missed
    All Xmas cards written and ready to post out tomorrow
    DH just home, he’s doing his supper, I had such a late lunch I don’t feel like eating again this evening.

    Have a good evening all, see you tomorrow

    Hello. Popping in. x

    Ground floor dysoned,birdies fed, laundry done. Found a pair of shoes in my wardrobe that I had forgotten about this morning so I wore them. They were very comfortable but during the day the leather upper started disintegrating sadly.

    Christmas cards mostly written (both mine and my mother’s)

    Listed a few things for sale on my local Fb group

    Got my 10% badge at fat club

    Well done on the 10% Dancemum.

    Morning all. Another sleepless night with my bad back. I'm at the doctors today about something else so I'll mention it.

    Paid stuff today and whatever else I can manage.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Morning all

    Paid stuff all day today. DH is out this evening so I’m planning to tackle the paperwork mountain then.

    But the ironing pile is demolished. Until the next load of washing today of course.

    Well done, dancemum.
    Have a lovely day everyone.
