    I've done my ironing and half the mending - it was pleasant to be in the living room for a change now it is clean and tidy.

    Just going to put the washing machine on again and head up to bed as went too late last night so am tired now.

    See you all in the morning

    oops, posted a bit soon! just caught up with the thread after busy day with mum. we got pretty much everything done. i am so glad i have a flexible job. feeling stuffed and tired now as we got a chinese and had a bottle of wine tonight. flat is a mess as it's not big enough for two! oh well, it's worth it to have my mum here :) i will have to do some tidying tomorrow when she's gone. I am sure i have a meeting tomorrow night but it's not in my diary and i have no idea what/where, the date just rings a bell...oh well!

  • Dusty Kitten, sorry have only just caught up on the posts. I searched all over for a Tesco Direct code and couldnt find one in date or that worked, so had to settle for just the free delivery that they were offering at the time. Hope this helps.

    Clean floors in these rooms (even if it is around the clutter)
    Level Two
    Clean baths, toilets and sinks
    Clear any clutter from desk

    Good Morning everyone,

    Didn't manage to get on here yesterday and didn't get many (well, any!) of the lists done! I spent most of the day with a friend in the hospital so at least I was being helpful to her.
    However, my desk is in a real state so I am looking forward to getting cracking on that when the baby is asleep. Also have to:

    go to post ebay stuff
    buy pattern for a dressing up costume
    do the PTA banking.

    See you later,
