Good afternoon, hope everyone is doing well.
My work plans for today have changed however I've had a busy start to the day and seem to have lost half a day but got some big issues sorted out, now know that I will be moving house in a few weeks and I have started making phone calls to sort stuff out (sky phoned and managed to make a small saving).
My list for the rest of today
Spend 3 hours on uni work
Spend an hour on assessment (aim to add another 500 words, it's now half written)
HHIWash up dishes, dry and put away
Catch up with emails and answer important ones
S&S bathroom
Make a list of companies/places to contact regarding house move.
I think that is everything that I need to get ticked off my list today. Hope everyone has a lovely Wednesday.5 -

Slept like a top, hardly surprising given i did 3 hours walking yesterday. Hoping to catch up with some jobs today, I have washing to peg out, too.
And i need to do a binbag dance before the bin is emptied.
Wordle done and 1 line in connections and I’m stuck.

Morning all
Wow! I have to say it again - I'm so glad I found you guys after such a long time away. I've been back in the fold for 3 weeks and the house is looking happy again.
Not only that, the menfolk in House of Eltee must have noticed and are doing little tasks without me having to hint/ask/moan.
Yesterday, I had left the hoover upstairs after finishing spare room and taking bits of old gibble downstairs to the bin. I heard hoover being switched on and OH did rest of upstairs, stairs, landing & all of downstairs!!!
It might be because BIL is going to be staying for a few days - I'll make sure he visits more often👍🏻
So today all I need to do is ...
Clean oven
S&S bathroom
S&S kitchen
d/w
Happy Days🙂"I started out with nothing
And still got most of it left"

I'm up, made my bed, taken my meds, turned over the calendars, eaten breakfast, supped two brews, completed Wordle in three, completed Connections with one life lost, and completed Strands without a hint needed.
Round 1
Get dressed
Feed the birds
Bring in the emptied bins
Put out the recycling

Go to PO
That's my starter for 10. I wish I could find those dratted kitchen curtains. Humph.
