Thank you Honey Bear7 -
Mmm cheesecake indeed. No slinky going on here. I was baking a cake at 9pm last night as we'd run out of treats.
Morning everyone. Tuesday is my day and for the first time this year I have no appointments on the calendar, just my exercise class later. So flying will commence today as well as some me time.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.8 -
I loved the cheesecake at 3am with my Phillipa Gregory book!
This wind is finally due to go later this morning, cold will follow thankfully. At least the mud will freeze for a while! So much to do, so little time yadayada....
@Fayolle please let me know how you find the book!
@Valli thanks for the advice chick, I have emailed them this morning xx
DD about to get on the bus, catch you all later xx
PS Paid DD £1 to clean the bathroom last night, best £1 I have spent in years9 -
Morning xx
Woken up by my alarm at 7am. Up, made my bed, packed my lunch, eaten breakfast, supped a brew, completed Wordle, failed at Connections (2/4). About to put on my identity badges - in case I forget who I am 😉 and tootle off to the paid stuff. I'll feed the birds and put out the recycling before I leave.
On my way home I'll pay the rent and drop off the wedding invitations at DB's.
Hope you all have a good day.

Morning all,
So windy, atop this hill. Not actually raining atm, so grateful for small mercies.
Usual Tuesday here - unlike Jazee, I seem to have an appointment on every Tuesday. Planned as it’s the only weekday that I can make without using annual leave, but just sometimes…
So far - DD’s car into the garage for MOT and service, bed stripped and remade, wm running, pile of clean clothes sorted from the airing cupboard, and airing cupboard refilled with yesterday’s clean washing, hair washed, gibble rehoused, as DH is incapable of following Valli’s mantra. DH has…hmmm….read some apparently really interesting Stuff on his tablet.
On my list - I really must do some paperwork, finalise the Mr M delivery, vacuum upstairs, maybe even dust up there, clean some grubby marks off the kitchen cupboards. That’s for starters.
ASB - I am desperately trying to rush through the current book (will see if it’s worth recommending to you when I finish) to get to the one that you recommended. I might have to rewrite today's list to include “finish book”😉.8 -
morning all. Vertical half hour ongoing. ASB what a bargain… £1! (minimum wage doesn’t apply in house!)
Today I shall be sanding door frames and, I hope, priming. Though I need to fill the SC first and freeze yesterday’s spare cottage pie. I will also be in work on Friday if the scheduled booking goes ahead so I need to plan my daysDon'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, from a sunny but cold Fife.
My list for today
Get dressed
Feed the animals
Do paid stuff
Attend classes at uni
Do planning prep for uni assignment Work in Progress
Remove the clutter from the dining table and change the tablecloth
Tidy the kitchen, wash up dishes, dry and put away
Speak to DS regarding his audition script
Check and update banking
Continue decorating the master bedroom
Sort lunches/bags/clothes for tomorrow.
Think that is everything that I need to tackle today, Hope everyone has a good Tuesday

I’m about to update the Mr M order, then that will be all the jobs off the earlier list, plus a few late additions (exciting stuff, like wiping the bannister). Apart from the paperwork of course, about which I am procrastinating. It’s too much like being at the paid stuff for my liking. I have dug out a new cleaning cloth, which I knew I had bought aaaaages ago, but had buried in the utility room-of-nearly-doom (overtaken by the dining room-of-absolute-doom). Only a flylady could find that a task worth smiling about.
ASB, an absolute bargain for £1. Send DS down southwards whenever you want to.
