Morning all,

Gosh that sounds stressful Princess - what a shame the broker didn't listen in the first place. You should be able to edit your post. I think if you go back to your post, there's an edit bit at the top (it's under the 3 dots in the circle if you click on that).

Decided to strip the children's beds today as I always seem to miss the day for this due to working, so both of their sheets etc are now in the washing machine along with some bits that I've stain removed in the napisan soaking bucket. Will have a quick dust and hoover in master bedroom this morning too, and have a couple of loads of clean washing to put away as well.

An impressive (for me) wordle in 3 today, and completed connections with one life lost.

Happy flying to you all. x

Valli

took me all 6 to get wordle….despite having the first 4 letters for rounds 4 and 5!  Connections in 4, no lives lost and in double quick time, too.

Just doing my vertical half hour…I can feel myself cooling down…I’m going to have to pop a dressing gown on one of these mornings.  We had the ‘we are gritting’ facebook post yesterday, brrrr.
WM x 1.  Didn’t run DW as it wasn’t full.

Work today.  Hoping to clean cafe floor and windows, possibly.

Hope everyone has a good day.

.......drumroll please........DH and I have been out and completed our Christmas present shopping.

Seriously impressed by that.  I've been buying and wrapping things as I see them and now have no idea what I've bought for Belovéd so him opening the small things will be a surprise to us both on the day.  I've also taken to hiding things that I haven't got round to wrapping which, in my case, is a dangerous thing to do.  Still haven't found the wedding day card ....

Valli filing is definitely Flying.  I have a bulging bottom tray which needs to be tackled.  The top one isn't looking much better but that's the kind of stuff that brings 'I must do that' to mind so I avoid it as long as possible.  I suspect if I chucked it all I wouldn't notice and it wouldn't make any difference but I can't bring myself to do that.

Ionafan, that's all Flying.  Anything that would linger on a To Do list and nip at your heels counts as Flying in my book.  Dusting isn't the half of it.

Connections, Strands and Wordle all completed in quicktime this mor;;ning, which has never happened before.

Today I will:

- wash the middle of the sitting room carpet where Higgs spilt a whole glass of my evening drink.  Fortunately fruit juice mixed with electrolytes, but a full half pint so it'll be sticky if I don't wash it out today.  I had hoped I'd seen the last of the carpet washer for the year but apparently not.

- put pot feet under all the pots, a job we've been putting off and putting off for weeks

- J3y3s fluid the bottom half of the back alley

- WM x 2 and dangle.  It's taking a full 48 hours to dry which is annoying but better than using electricity and I want to make the most of the dry weather. 

- fold and put away the previous two loads.

Was Marina in Stingray?  I liked Marina but the rest were all too blokey for me.

Morning All

Done main boudoir & guest penthouse suite 🤭 at the weekend.  DS still in process of moving out, so can't get in there at the moment.  Plan for today is to do general tidying and bits & pieces upstairs (does this count as dot-to-dotting to join up with yesterday's flying?)
 
eltee's extras
d/w, w/m, t/d if needed
put laundry/ironing away
sort out more clothes to recycle/donate

At least 3 things off MAD project (dragging my heels on this, reckon it'll turn into a whole bunch of frogs!)

S&S kitchen & bathroom

Dry washing away and 90 minute walk with Poppet.

Afternoon all. 

Welcome Princess. I don't use the list as it would be a nil return for me for most of the things on it.

This morning I went down three flgihts of stairs with A as part of his exercise. He longer feels safe doing it on his own so I go with him. Whilst he was walking up and down the hallway I nipped out and bought the paper. I came back and accompanied him back up the stairs again. I then went out again as I needed to accompany a friend to a shop to help choose a jacket. I came back and prepared our lunch and am now contemplarting washing up.
