Good afternoon 😁
Wishing Round a very happy birthday 🎂
GWS wishes to MrIona
I am still lacking motivation, and running out of holiday 😭 I have WULTD the dishes, put on the DW, wiped the kitchen surfaces & hob, WM x1 drying on the line. I have done a few bits of admin (1st of the month money juggle, etc) & backed up my registers (work thing).
I have also cleaned up 2 poops from behind the cat tree, stopped another before it happened & cleared some out of the littler tray. How can such a small kitty contain so much poop!! Oh, and I have unblocked the upstairs lav & cleaned it.
But I still have table full of gibble 😭
Try to focus....try to focus.....try to focus.....
Next move:
Wash the contents of the treasure basket (natural wooden/metal items) as they smell musty. I have washed the basket liner & cloths of various textures already
Clear the rest of the DR table
Maybe tackle the UR? I think I will take a before & after photo to motivate me on that one!
Lunch - I have a juicy corn on the cob with my name on it 😋
Have a good day everyone!9 -

Good mor... afternoon xx
Thank you for the birthday wishes. 😊 I do indeed have cake. And chocolates. And cider. And wine. Work colleagues have just tried to video call me. Not happening sorry. I rang them back. It wasn't that I didn't want to speak to them, I'm just not comfortable with cameras. And it's my birthday so I can do as I like today 😇
I'm up. No lie in here - woke up at 6. I'm up, dressed, made my bed, sloshed bleach down the loo, brought in the emptied bin, fed the birds, put out the recycling. Had cake with my 11 o'clock coffee. Now having cake with my lunch. Lemon drizzle anyone? Or a chocolate?
DS has invited me out for a meal at the weekend. I've said that I'd like to have pizza at their house. And onion rings. In fact I may just ask for double onion rings. 😋 I'll be taking his suit and jackets over plus other bits and bobs that are his. Fer-ling.
Hope everyone is having a good day.
Hugs

Afternoon all. Hope all are well. The baby is now home from hospital. One and two year olds will be going home on Saturday. I can put away the duplo, I do believe there is a floor somewhere beneath it. It will be good to be able to sleep in till after six, to not have so much food thrown around and have fewer sticky finger marks. But we're going to miss them being here.
Spent most of the morning outside with all five children. Bikes, scooters and sit and ride toys out. Also collected a ton of blackberries, around half of which were hand feed to the chickens! DW done twice, will need to sort all the little ones clothes later.
Hugs to all, mumtoomany.xxxFrugal Living Challenge 2025.10 -
MTM .. excellent news that baby is home
Round.. Many happies!
Chemist emptied into my bag..
I was brave and rang drs.. they are substituting the pain meds .. and!!! ringing me tomorrow to talk about upgrading all of them.. I don't think masking the pain is a very good idea.. I will either be off my noddle and incapable of anything or do loads and do further damage. Both are likely depending on the day.
Sticky sucker arrived.. still in the box and I am incapable of using it right now after a pootle to shop so in the box it can stay.
