I am paranoid that they will smell cat pee!! The small cat has been a lot better since buying a new litter tray & different cat litter. She goes out now as well. 2 of the ladies are allergic so hopefully she will keep out of our way 🙏
Hugs, sticks & spoons to those that need them.

Good morning 😊
DH WULTD and put on WM & TD before he left for work. I have FU the dry washing & wiped down the kitchen surfaces.
I have had breakfast & a cuppa, and now waiting for 2 children to arrive.
Have a good day everyone11 -
Well I am very much paying for the lifting and shifting and especially the mopping yesterday .. my hips and elbows are absolutely killing me. Going to make a cuppa and drug the body parts and crack on with the flinging.. I am aiming for at least 1 binbag of rubbish.. It is binday and the bins are not full.. that seems a waste.
Cuppa and flinging.. Anyone up for some dashing about in a binbag dance?LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)8 -
Medication snaffled.. waiting for it to work!
Polystyrene from the DW is now filling 1 bin, binbag filled from the middle room and the bathroom cat tray filling the second.. *FLING* .. See we only need 3 bins on special weeks, not every time!
DW loaded
Sides wiped
recycling bin filled and maggot bin filled
4 parcels out *FLING* and one parcel, for Moomin, In.. I am expecting a parcel.. it is a shirt for DS1's birthday.. in September!
I need ideas for a 19 y/o birthday next week.. the pg one.. I rather want to get her something a bit special.
Having a cuppa and exploring toilets. I very nearly tried getting a GP appointment this morning but it would just be a waste of time.. they are STILL not working at our surgery.. still!!! It is a disgrace.
It took about 15 minutes to S&S the kitchen.. I think I may be on top of it now so can maintain.. it is 15 years since I was last there and it is cluttered but cleaner and easier to clean. Next room I need to tackle into submission is the back room. I want to whizz through the front room and then the back room is this weeks project.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)11 -

2x WM
tea break had..
Now to shuffle laundry and empty DW and make a move on rearranging the middle room which is a fright..
I would love to tidy the front room but alas my brain says no.. I am taking things out of it every time I leave the room so it is indirectly becoming less full.. it is a start!
I have eyed up the front bay to paint.. it is looking at me.. I have paint.. and a roller.. a mini one which is very cute.. and sunshine to blind me.. what I lack is the enjoyment of being outside where it is peopley and the divvies waking past who think it is ok to 'chat' ... big wireless headphones are a necessity and I only have in ear ones.. *heads to Amaz0n*
Drugs are working lol.. I speak muppet.. I shall have more in a bit before school run.
I had a horrible thought.. I can't get a lift to nail shop.. *cry*LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)9 -
Seems everyone is busy.
I have changed bedding and sofa covers so wm is whirring. Also walked Poppet, done admin, dusted bedroom and living room, s&sd bathrooms , put out rubbish and recycling and hoovered through.Spend less now, work less later.10 -
I was up at work time on my day off, so no excuses - yesterday’s level 1, 2 and even one from level 3 ticked off….polishes halo gently, as it is rather tarnished…
Just back from various errands in small town and the next town along. That gave DD’s car a good run although I forgot to turn the lights off when I nipped into the wool shop.. whoops. Did I say wool shop 😳. It seems wool that I didn't intend buying has slipped into my bag. In my defence, I have earmarked it for presents for DD. Maybe.
Still on my list are s&s bathroom and mop the kitchen floor. Enthusiasm is waning.
Right. Coffee, then bathroom.10 -
2 loads brought in and folded, 1 load gone out, 1 more load gone in... and one still draining.. the 9 minutes has lasted about an hour.. I may need to get in there.
Folded stuff is slowly being put away
Secondary school uniform delivered for Dot.. I need to order a few more bits before the 1st March when places are announced but we are getting sorted.
I got a huge splinter in my hand from the back door which I've dealt with
DW emptied and the few bits put in.
Mogs filled..
Laundry collected from the girls room.
Feargal unblocked and twice emptied.
hallway and front room given a cursory whizz over.
3 pairs of shoes lobbed in my room.
I need to pair up many pairs of shoes for donation.. I may need a pushchair trip to get it all donated though there is a lot! That can be done as I work my way through the hovel though I think.. I might get a roll of maggot bin bags to pair them up..
I will have another 15 minute burst and the next run of medication so I am capable of doing the school run.
StepFIL is in hospital dehydrated and on a vitamin drip after falling and injuring his arm and head last night.. Looks like we got SS involved just in time. He is not going to be allowed home without a care package in place.. obviously if this is the condition of him, MIL will not be faring any better and shows clearly the nutrition is severely lacking.
Anyhoo.. 15/20 minutes.. GO!
