Billy No Mates again lol.
In my HHC I:
rinsed & recycled a beer bottle
rinsed & recycled 20 cans
decanted coffee in to the caddy and put away the jar
pegged out jeans
set a random load of 'lights' culled from the top of the laundry hamper swishing
sorted contents of laundry hamper in to loads
WULTD a bowl of pots
Timer beeped and I finished washing the bowl of pots. Since then I have phoned a friend and had a chat, made a coffee, pegged out the random load and set WM swishing DS's work polo shirts.

Round I was with you hun, I just havent been on the laptop or phone this morning because I was in a little cleaning frenzy and didnt want to break the spell. Good news about the office move, can you refuse to move again? Fingers crossed x
So, dusted hoovered, scrubbed and polished everywhere except utility room and office, they are last on the list. The fog was supposed to lift and I was going out on my bike but if anything it is getting worse. Waiting for DS to get home, DH is at work and its just me and the dog.
Feeling really good today, have been making a real effort to be kind to myself, it seems to be helping.7 -
I was also with you round as the sun was shining we changed the plan again and whizzed out to the gc, bought a few winter pansies, planted them, raked leaves, swept the patio and pathways and did some cutting back and weed clearance, house still needs doing but I feel a little better after an hours fresh air.
load of smalls just washed and on airer, washing on line is drying a bit although it’s quite still out there. Lunch for me next and then see what I feel like doing this afternoon. X

wow
mum in hospital having tests as she's had some kind of turn but I haven't a clue what exactly happened as dad has a version, she has a version, she told me her version, the version the paramedics got from her was completely different to the one I got and was actually the most concerning which leads me to think that my sister and I aren't getting the whole truth...
House is an absolute disgrace...my to do list is far too long

Thank you Honey Bear6 -
Round I am here honey, just busy listing on eBay and not allowing myself on here as I'll get distracted! 7 items listed, aiming for ten today.Some bits pegged out but, as YL says, instead of lifting its getting foggier. We've also had a big muddy walk so more washing beckons, it'll have to wait until tomorrow. Lunch now, I've relented and put the heating on for an hour as I haven't had time to sort the woodburner yet and I'm freezing. The kids on the other hand are not and don't seem to feel it!7

Hope your mum is ok Valli.
Weather still horrid here so I have spent three hours sewing together some knitted diamond shapes into some kind of top. Nearly finished but just having a cuppa.Spend less now, work less later.6 -
I hope your mum is ok, Valli x
Round, I was also with you, honey. I went to the allotment in my pristine new wellies, spent a couple of hours in the mud, squelching out some weeds, and now have decidedly mucky boots. Came home with some leeks, a red cabbage, a few carrots, a celeriac and the last few beetroots. I just need to make sure that they all get eaten. Oh and also some wallflowers that I now need to plant in the back garden somewhere.
The fog has lifted and it is finally beautiful blue sky and sunshine.6 -
I have just received such a lovely random act of kindness through the post from a lovely Flylady ❤️. Feeling the Flylady love and support here. You are all a wonderful group of people x

Not lonely any more - happy now
Hope you mum is ok Valli xx
YL - I won't refuse to move again; but I will refuse to move back into that room.
All cans rinsed and recycled = visible kitchen work tops (and a very full recycling box). Woot woot.
I don't think the washing pegged outside will be drying much but I've nowhere to put it indoors so it will have to linger out there a while longer.
I'm going to read my book for an hour.
