The Best Is Yet To Come

Never got to the shops for food - maybe this evening? - managed to find enough odds and ends to keep us fed.  Got some sausages out of the freezer for tonights dinner and will probably just have those with chips and beans for a quick and easy meal.

The house looks worse at the moment than it did this morning, but things are either making their way out of the house or to the correct room.  Other than a trip to the dr tomorrow with DD2 for yearly check-up and prescription the day will again be spent sorting areas out and cleaning. Think so far only my room is ready.  Booked another trip to the tip on Friday to get rid of things collected between now and then.  That way we wont fill the bin in the first few days after it had been emptied today.

Finding it very hard to get into cleaning mode today as I know no one has booked in for Saturday and I am tired.   Asked DD1 to clean her corner of the living rooms so I could get that room sorted and finished but she has decided that her bedroom needs sorting first.  Kitchen could be done I guess and out of the way (dont like cleaning kitchen as it never lasts), but I feel that it will only end up in a mess and I would need to try again tomorrow.  Need to plan a non smelly meal with little mess for tomorrow, so that house will be ready to show for Sat am.  I am thinking salad, potatoes and chicken.  Not sure about today.  

I did manage to do a full shop today and so we have a full fruit bowl, bread drawer and fridge.  Actual real food.  I used my voucher from school so only needed to top it up by £12 ish.  The trolly was full.  Realised when I got home that I had bought boned chicken drumsticks rather than thighs.  Not great but hoping in the curry it will still be ok - we normally buy breast but in an attempt to be a bit better with food budget I was going to do thighs instead.

Window cleaner turned up at the right time too so that worked well.  Sold mirror on FB and it will be collected tonight hopefully - another few pounds to add to the pot.  Got another agent coming out on Tuesday to talk to us, so will need to keep the house reasonably tidy until then.  By this point we will be off the books of current agent.

OK need to carry on as time is running away.
