Morning all.
Not at work until this evening so am hoping to fly, fly, fly.
Up & dressed
WM on
HHI (the backlog basket now only has a few odd skiing socks in it and 1 shirt as I have been doing a couple of backlog bits with each load).
Still have a mountain of washing and DD1 has just announced she's coming home at the weekend so that will no doubt be more.
Bedroom and bathroom aired
1 admin item done (admin is a big frog here so trying to not when I do some to encourage myself to get through it)
Off to get some wood pellets then clean the stoves and reload, all whilst kettle boils.0 -
Morning all
Feeling better today, I managed a little fluttering after work yesterday... dusted and quick vac of bedroom and cleaned bathroom, also did quick vac of top flight of stairs, then the power went on the handheld vac so I had an excuse to put it away LOL.
Anyway, starting paid stuff v shortly, will do dailies when I take my lunch break and will see what else I can do when work done. Washing is mounting up, new machine being delivered tomorrow so looks like Saturday will be catch up on laundry day.
Have a great day all x0 -
Morning all
Morning dailies have been done. DD bedding changed. Downstairs loo cleaned while I was waiting for the wm to finish.
Washing hung up, now dashing to work.
Have a good day all. Hugs, sticks and spoons - help yourselves.0 -
Back again, it's coffee time, no doubt the first of many
Stoves cleaned and reloaded, not on yet as it's mild but won't be long as it's pouring with rain
Dining room, living room and kitchen hoovered
Hoovered emptied also changed filter and washed pot as it was horrid (not done it for ......)
Dining room dusted
Another admin item done and 3 bits filed away properly.
Next load of washing sorted but WM not done yet (very very slow)
Spending since start of year noted on pad as must track spending this year,spreadsheets set up ready just need to keep them up to date
Coffee then the kitchen0 -
WM into TD and back on again
DW on
WU done left to dry
Bank statements received yesterday and still on kitchen table filed away. Going to try the same process as with ironing backlog, keep new admin up to date and slowly chip away at the backlog.
Lunch cooked for tomorrow
Some of OHs shredding done whilst cooking
Dotting around now in kitchen0 -
Urgh...flood alert...again. Waste drainage is slow, so looks like the septic tank can't empty due to high water table. Great. Just great.
Consequently, I'm in a huff and sat on the sofa with a cuppa trying to shake out of it. Very tired after being woken up by the warning in the night. Our defences are still in place, so no urgent action needed, but I am totally knackered for some reason. A short snooze is on the cards.
Took Christmas decorations (and the tree) down yesterday, dusted and cleaned everything as it was packed away and have flung some old decorations that I've never really liked into a CS bag and I avoid using. Hopefully someone else will like them.0 -
Dizzy hope nothing comes of your flood warnings
Just stopped for lunch. Quite pleased with my progress today.
TD emptied & HHI done, ironing backlog is now gone!
Next load sorted for WM, still plenty to go but progressing
OH shredding finished
One side cleared and cleaned in kitchen, 3 more to go plus island and table. But it shouldn't be too bad once I get going.
I am starting to imagine that downstairs might be presentable on day soon. Let's not talk about upstairs, I prefer the idea of concentrating on one room/area at a time and then keeping on top of that whilst I work on the next bit.
Right soup is finished, off to look for something to have with a coffee0 -
Stay safe Dizzy Imp we live in Cumbria and get our fair share of rain but thankfully I've never flooded, the garden is a mud bath though.
