It’s tipping it down here, Round. Just saying....😉
Super busy day at work, dailies done plus HHI. Actually that used to be a daily, so I seem to have managed to reduce even the few jobs that I do manage to get done each day. DH managed to get a slot to empty the car boot at the tip AND a cs booking - and yes, GI, I did have to virtually kick him into the loft to get the stuff down that obviously needed to leave the house. Good luck!
I’m going to be at work, rather than wfh, for November. It is at best difficult to wfh, and somebody has to be in the office to be at your beck and call. As we are so SD (very few people, very big space, everyone takes all the sensible precautions), we figure that it is not an irresponsible decision. DH on the other hand has been told to expect to wfh until at least February.8 -
Round, it was okay lovely, thank you for asking. Exhausting but okay xx
Just wanted to say hi to you all. My eyes are drooping as I type this so I'm shuffling off to bed with a warm drink. Sleep well all xx10 -
Morning all. The jobs outstanding yesterday afternoon are still outstanding plus I've got paid stuff and council stuff today.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.10 -
Good morning!
Paid stuff today - the boys are just eating their snack and I am having a cuppa.
I walked the dog before work, and got wet! The LR has been vac'd and sprayed with carpet freshener because all I could smell was wet dog! DW stacked and ready to go after lunch, WM x2, 1 load in the TD.
We are going to do some painting soon, and then I will need to clear up after that.
I hope everyone has a good day, and that any bullies are quiet & behaving as they should!9 -
Paid stuff and council stuff out of the way for today. Two calls got cancelled. All Christmas presents are wrapped.Spend less now, work less later.9

One frog crossed off my list this morning - I have ordered the photobook that has taken me 3 days to design, after an initial delay of 3 weeks.
Now off out into the garden to celebrate by planting bulbs (which are also well overdue!)
Catch up later...7 -
Paid stuff all morning but a few things done before I went out
Bed made, clothes picked up
DW unloaded, kitchen tidied
Living room tidied (ok only 1 pair of slippers to move but want to get into the habit of keeping it tidy each day)
Just finished lunch and still trying to warm up, it was freezing at work today.
This afternoon would like to clean pellet stoves out, dust and vacuum dining room, vacuum kitchen. Then maybe a bit of admin and sew the button on my 2nd crochet poppy, would also like to make a couple more this week.
Coffee and a biscuit next sitting in the sunny spot in the dining room.7 -

OH is doing that shortly.
Pink christmas tree delivered
Washing on the line
WM on with black stuff
OH going to PO and food shopping while I have my eyebrows yoinked off.. I look like a woolly mammoth.. my mono will be a duo very soon and my nails are very very short but rather festive looking. Next appointment booked for the 4th December but I reckon they will be closed still.
I am FREEZING..
OH is going to the gym after dinner tonight and possibly in the morning too.. Once eyebrows are done we will bring shopping home and put it away then collect children, drop DD1's 2 at home (it is an hours walk for her so if we can save her that time we will) .. then I will do dinner and OH is moving toys upstairs so we can sort them next week. I am quite determined to be rid of some before the fat red clad dude turns up.
