Me again. Just having an early lunch. The crumblies are delicious.

I have walked the dogs, done most of the dailies, second wash load about to go in and prepped final bits for today's two meetings.

Fayolle

I’ve stopped for lunch - fridge use ups.

Level one kitchen done plus the hob and mopping the floor. While I was waiting for the floor to dry, I sorted out DD’s flingage and now have a bag to take to the cs this afternoon, some recycling, a present to be put away and a small amount of rubbish.

I’m going to reward myself with 1/2 hour in the greenhouse before I have to set off to town. I figure the greenhouse is probably the warmest place to be - that’s my excuse anyway

Jazee

Physio done and a quick hoover through.

Cuppa and second crumblie now.

So far, and at least its something.

Fridge cleaned out completely, all trays scrubbed, door shelves cleaned and everything put back in.

Started on the kitchen after having made a mess as I filled a fridge tray with water without realising it was going to pour out of the bottom!

Water mopped up.

Casserole dish that DH left out for me to put away has been the issue. I took everything out of the cupboard, as it had become a bung it all in there place, have sorted through and have stuff to chuck and other stuff that belongs in the other cupboards.

Other cupboards started but have had to photograph to check with DD what I can fling, waiting for a response.

Ironed bed linen from our bed that DH had stripped and washed so that's ready for him to put back on. He's gone out!

Its beautiful outside so will walk the doogie next as the kitchen which I have to finish is at the back of the house and I prefer to be in the sunshine (cue why I moved my office to the front)

Need to know if DD wants me to go to Lincoln tomorrow, if not I will need to package up her glasses, which she left behind, for the post.

Have also rung for a Doctors appointment having tried the automated service which said there are no appointments - err what ever! Apparently, they are released 2 weeks in advance and those released this morning have gone but they dont tell you that on the phone. Managed to speak to someone on the phone and am in for next Tuesday for my knee injury. I fell before Christmas and badly bruised it but I now have a fluid build-up and it hurts going up/down the stairs.

Ok DD replied, am going to hand deliver to her tomorrow so its a day out for me so better crack on today

Phone call first re parcel that was delivered this morning, my order but someone elses name?

It is really cold and grey here. I did my physio, ate some frogs, checked monthly outgoings, now my 'get up and go has got up and gone'.

Valli

All laundry waiting to be put away from maiden has been, all laundry waiting to be ironed has been and is now on the maiden.
DW emptied. Washing put out this morning in 0 degrees is now wafting gently in the sun - bedding inc a duvet cover so pleased not to have used TD.

Not done any of the list though :rotfl: but have munched a massive frog. *licks lips*

kazwookie

Been and sorted a toad out
Mini shop done, and still forgot the milk
Batched made cottage pie, just waiting for it to cool down to freeze.
