I hope everyone is well, it's very quiet on here.
DD's bed remade with clean bedding, laundry put away, dinner cooked and eaten, DW on. Cuppa, cake and a bit of TV for me now before an early night.
Sleep well all, hope the WAC is quiet xx9 -
Hi all
Full on day at the paid stuff, came home and made myself go for a little run. HM pasta sauce for tea with tomatoes and courgettes out of the garden, beds made and laundry sorted. Will fly a little tomorrow because I have an early finish before my day off on Friday.
I have just discovered that I have £32 worth of Tesco clubcard vouchers, some of which need to be used before the end of the month, no idea what to spend them on!9 -
Hello,
A busy couple of days, although achieving very little, apart from keeping the WAC spick and span in case anyone felt the need to join me.
DD did really well in her exams. She has her uni place confirmed - eek! Please don’t let “anything” bu**£r this hard fought for opportunity up for her. Well done to your DS, dancemum.
Am nursing a headache now after another full on day at work, plus dashing out mid morning to meet DD for her physio appointment. Mr M delivered this evening, freezer tetris played. It really is too full now, so it’s freezer dinners plus any veg that I manage to salvage from the allotment for the foreseeable future. Tomorrow I will sort out the fridge, as I have just thrown tonight’s shopping in. Oh, and dw emptied before I went to work.
YL - I have just “found” some Nectar points. Like you, I also need to see what I can usefully do with them.10 -
After visiting my friend I have cleaned the bathroom. Towels and cloths in WM ready to go. This is also money saving as the bathroom floor gets mopped with the kitchen water. Have attached ring to tiny hole in mop so it can hang to dry. Have dead mouse to move from kitchen drain when I CBA. This one must have been injured by cat...

Morning all
Lovely bright day here. So far I have emptied the DW, made the beds, made the packed lunches for sports club today and got dressed. I have some time to myself today which I intend to spend reading and drinking cuppas. AF is here with avengance so going to be kind to self.
Have lovely days all xx10 -
Morning all,
It was a promising bright start but now clouded over. Bed stripped, bedding just finished in wm and will hang outside. I’m slowly making my way round downstairs with the duster, rehoming a few bits along the way and watering the houseplants. The poor things either get neglected or smothered with love.Puncture on DH’s car, so waiting for tyre man to come and sort it out.
Plenty of flying to get on with while I listen out for the doorbell.
Have a lovely day all xx9 -
Morning all. Still working on garden and decorating projects here. New floor going down in office later today. I am leaving normal flying until tomorrow as dust from sanding is still settling everywhere and it will be cleaner for guests we have staying next week. Can't do it at the weekend as we're away again, revisiting our honeymoon location.Spend less now, work less later.10

Good morning everyone, hope you are all fit and well or looking after yourself if you're under the weather.
Towels on line. Bed stripped, windows open so room (and bed) can air. When I finish my cuppa I'm going in...Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Morning all.
Well done to dancemum's DS2 and Fayolle's DD on your excellent results xx
Good luck to anyone collecting GCSE results today!
Well done pigpen on the holiday underspend x
I am still around but doing my own thing, as usual. In the gap between grandchildren's visits, yesterday and today I have
- moved my PC and printer back into the study bedroom so that I could work comfortably
- sorted lots of church admin
- decluttered most of the contents of 2 lever arch binders and half a filing cabinet drawer [fer-ling!]
- put loose papers in one of the now empty binders
- cleaned the study bedroom more thoroughly than usual
- persuaded DH to phone the horse piddle to ask why he didn't get a phonecall from the dietician's team last week; he also rang another department to check on whether they had still got him on the waiting list for a veins procedure (they have, but all such procedures are delayed)
- done WMx3 (yesterday) and DWx1 (today)
- emptied bins
- mown the lawn
- tidied my bedroom and all other rooms in the house
- growled at a migraine which is threatening to disrupt my plans.
Still to do today:
- shower and dress
- clean kitchen and bathroom/ensuite/WC surfaces
- dust and hoover all through
- steam mop the kitchen floor
- declutter my horse piddle appointment this afternoon
- visit an old lady
- do QHI
- FUPA clean dry washing
- try to get to bed early this evening.
Tomorrow I will have to
- move the PC and printer into my bedroom again, to keep it safe from DGS4's meddling fingers
- make up the beds for DGS3+4
- get out the zoo play board, which is their favourite toy.
Honey Bear, I will join your challenge when DGD2's birthday is over (party on Sunday evening) x
Love, (((hugs))) and strength to all xx

I've put up tomorrows list today as I am off out to Costco later and not sure what time we'll be back, plus I may be tired that I want to go to bed. Like I have done for the past week - I'm actually in bed by 10pm (very unusual for me..lol) and I've been popping the list up via my phone. So thought I would do it now while I have the lappy openMortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️
