Will this be the usual sort of 'something' where, once he gives up and comes down, he finally says what he was looking for and you reply 'Oh, the flibbertygibbetspanglestoatwhistlingbodgerpolisher? It's in the cupboard under the stairs'?

Well.. my house is STILL a bear pit..
7 hours of non-stop (well.. a brief stop!) tidying and flinging.. I have found a box of clothes to sort into Twinkles cupboard but I first have to sort A LOT out of there.. I fear she will have no PJs left lol.
Knickers all put away.. There must be thousands of pairs of pants.. are schools still allowed to take a few pairs as 'spares'? Most are like new because they simply don't get worn as there are so many. Twinkles have 2 large carriers of pants.. WHY????? The smaller ones (2-3 and 3-4) are going to nursery.. she simply does not need them all!
I have a box of new knickers and bras going to Smalls for All .. better than them languishing in a drawer!
Clean washing all folded and away
I empied 2 wash baskets and then dug out some more to wash.. and OH changing our bed sheets before bed because I sorted 3 boxes from under Boogs bed which were all full of dust.. I condensed the 3 boxes into one tiny one and threw the rest in the bin and put the one tiny box in the cupboard under the stairs.. the cupboard is full of DD2's things still. I'm very much hoping she finds a permanent residence soon, I can squish so much in that cupboard though.. it may be getting a tiny toilet in there if I ever get anything back regarding the insulation grant and manage to get through to the mortgage company.
OH can brush small girls which he has just bathedd while I vacuum the landing.. I had to come down until the dust settled.

Hi all

Wow Pigpen you have been on a mission today!!  I want to reorganise DS2s bedroom but it has to stay as his bedroom while he is at uni.  One day I want a nice dressing table in there and will use it as my dressing room!

Washing almost dried outside between showers, LR dusted and hoovered (I discovered how bad the floor was when I did my exercise class this morning), leftover odds and ends made into pasta sauce for tea, and now I have an apple tart baking in the oven with some free apples we were given.

I have finally booked the chimney sweep to come out and sweep the LR fire, he is also going to look at the woodburning stove that we have in the kitchen/diner and see what needs doing to make it useable again.  We think that the chimney needs lining and want to get it sorted as we had loads of free wood given, but at the moment when we light it the bathroom above smells of smoke so we think the chimney is leaking.  Would be good to get an idea of cost at least.

YL.. I want to just organise my house.. I'm not sure it was ever organised in the first place to be able to REorganise it!

Garbage printed off to change my surname on several credit cards.. and the mortgage.. Yeah so we've been married 2.5 years.

Not quite as productive as this morning, but:
- peeled, chopped and froze 4 bags of apples. Washed the 2nd carrier bag full. Mr N tells me the freezer is full - er but I have about another 30 large apples to freeze......we'll have to eat something big from the freezer tomorrow. I remember my Grandpa used to carefully wrap apples in newspaper and they would keep in the garage for ages, must have been a different variety. These are delicious but fairly soft for cookers, so any bruising and they rot quickly. 
- Almost finished my report.
 - Did a bit of online course.
- Remembered to my horror that my Data Protection registration fee is overdue by 4 days; paid it now.
- Had drum lesson on Zoom. Interesting.
- sorted out  a load of post that needed.....sorting.

I shouldn't really be surprised, but I didn't get much else done off my list!  I rang a friend, chatted to her for nearly half an hour, then she said "A [a mutual friend] and I are going out for tea and cake at the GC this afternoon.  Why not come with us?" So I did, and we all had a great time - and some delicious cake    I got home just in time to take Rosie out for an hour before it went dark.  

Forgot to post this before I went  downstairs to watch UC and WDYTYA - my memory is getting worse.
But I have hung up the still damp washing to dry on the airers stood around the bathroom radiator.
And I have added several more things to tomorrow's list   Never mind, what really matters will get done somehow.
