Hoping to do a game night with the kids shortly and then some hoovering so we are ready for the week ahead. I also need to do some ironing, but that can always wait until tomorrow - I'm not desperate to get that done today.Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25

Hello all. Good new about Pops.
Dailies, dog walk, hoovering and prep for DGD2 arriving later done. Also finished editing for DH and watched the football. Got a bit of a twinge in my back today so that's my excuse for not doing anything else.
Spend less now, work less later.7 -
Marmalade made last night didn't set so I reboiled it this morning. I'm not convinced it's going to set this time either. Bu**er.Evening meal veggies prepped, chocolate pots made and that's about it for me today. Decluttering restarts tomorrow. There are days when it's best to throw in the towel and have a rest.See you on the other side.Better is good enough.7

Fingers crossed Round, sounds much more positive.
I ended up pretty much pulling everything out of the cupboard and filling two bin bags and a bag for the charity shop. I am not entirely happy with how everything has gone back in so there is a bit more to do.
I have a bag of scarves (floaty not woolly) that I am not sure what to do with. I never wear such things nowadays but some are nice. Likewise I have a small box of random gibble that still needs sorting. Oh and the top shelf still needs doing, not even sure what's in the boxes up there!
I have also hoovered around downstairs, put some washing over the airer, emptied the DW and tidied the kitchen.7 -
