Home from work, just flicking the duster around the LR before I have to go out again.
This morning was manic. I won’t bore you, suffice to say that I was less than amused by the time that the coffee machine had spat out coffee over the side for the 3rd time. Because one of the coffee drinkers hadn’t bothered to clean the filter. Bonus job was that I ran the dw on a clean, because DH took DD to school, rather than me.
Bed changed, and bedding has been washed and has dried on the line.
I have a hankering for apple crumble now. Just discovered that DH has eaten the apples that I cooked yesterday, which I thought I would use for a crumble tonight *sigh*
My large toad also looks like a tax return, and is croaking loudly in the corner.8 -
I finished the mitred corners of the curtains and sewed the pads into the cushion covers before breakfast.
I've been to have my eyes tested (very crowded in the opticians) and am £££ lighter.
I've done a bit of necessary shopping: my one impulse buy was an enormous head of Romanesco broccoli, as big as a dinner plate - I love it!
We've had lunch, and I'm now going to try to hang the curtains. I may be gone some little time...
ETA: Three quarters of an hour later the curtains are up, they look great, and the blackout lining is already keeping the room nice and cool. They bring me joy!8 -
Back home from work, so lovely to come into a tidy and clean house (although a lot more progress to be made before it's properly clean). I must keep this up.
I've put the bins out and wiped the patio table as hoping to eat outside again this evening.
Dinner sorted, ready to go on.
2 weeks work now done, 5 to go!9 -
Good evening
Paid stuff today. Before work I walked the dog, poo picked in the garden & vac'd the LR. After work I pottered in the garden & sowed some seeds for some winter veg before it gets too late. I also WULTD, put on DW, S&S kitchen & cooked dinner.
I must now do some admin, as long as the internet holds up! It is being a pain at the mo - which reminds me of a frog that needs munching! I need to put in a complaint to my ISP!!
I was a member of the WAC last night - but it manifests as not getting to sleep rather than waking too early, and then struggling to get up!
Ok - admin time!
Well done on the tax return Kaz8 -

Morning all. Hope you're all ok today.
Piggers, is that a typo? Did you really only entertain six?
Paid stuff today. I don't like full time. Flying is taking a back seat and the house is filthy.

Morning all,
Friday! Very tired. Looking forward to dinner and bed already! Washing on line, house tidy, off we go xx9 -
Busy day ahead of me work-wise, so minimum flying will be done. Would aim to have a quick tidy of my desk, put away some washing and get the recycling in the bin. If I manage that it'll be a bumper day.
First, coffee!7 -

Vacuumed upstairs, stairs and living room then ran out of power but will do the rest of downstairs (kitchen and dining room after lunch)
