I can't even update the first page... I'm giving it another go before I throw the lappy out the window..lol

edited to add - it worked.

I'll be adding the rest of the week to the first thread due to the site not playing ball at the moment - can't update using my phone and don't fancy going through verification everytime.  So an executive decision has been made - the rest of the week will be put up for you all to play about with if you want.

Thanks Natty, morning all.

Wordle in six, two lines on connections, strands with no hints.

I have no excuse not to fly this morning but do have a busy afternoon and evening planned.  Right, best get dressed and moving.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning, it's a lovely sunny day here, so I'm sitting outside with my morning cuppa and making my to do list

My list for today
Go and feed the horse, he's staying in this morning as the farrier is going to check his hooves. 
Do paid stuff
Take DS to his summer club
Delete 50 emails from personal inbox
Dust the living room, hall and stairs
Go to the stables and deal with the farrier
Find the mot paperwork from last year, as it's due this month
Add receipts from yesterday to the account so I get loyalty points
HH sorting out coursework as I have small piles in various locations which need to be sorted out, filed and stored away
Wipe down the kitchen surfaces
Make packing lists for next week, as we go on a holiday next Monday for a week
Sweep the kitchen floor
Cobweb dust downstairs
Take DD to the stables to ride and deal with the horse

I think that is everything that I need to tackle today. I hope everyone has a lovely Tuesday

I'm dressed. Bedding and sofa throws have been changed and previous stuff now out on line. Gardens watered with watering can.  We have a hosepipe ban from Friday.  I don't know why they don't bring the bans in sooner in the season to preserve water rather than waiting till the reservoirs are almost empty.  Numpties.

A photo for you to brighten things up

it's taken multiple attempts to get on...

anyhoo I have ironed.  Collected mums ashes from undertaker.  Collected donations from undertaker. Made two of the donations we agreed on from the funds collected at the funeral - we are donating to local groups which supported mum (and us) through her illness because they knew her and we appreciated their work.  Took cheque for funeral and have paid online for wake.

2 bags for CS taken downstairs.

Have also put some of my Grandma's crocheted mats in the CS bag.  I've a couple I use but the rest are sitting in a drawer, unused and taking up space.  (There's a lot of personal flinging going on, no doubt inspired by the amount of mum's stuff that's going.)  Drawer now repurposed to hold bedding for back bedroom (currently occupied by DD) which means she has a bit more space in her drawers for her clothes.  

Have heard from RCN; they will take mum's archive.

Done an hour or so weeding this morning - still looks like the same amount left 😱 will have to do a few more sessions.

Also managed an hour's ironing, FUPA aforementioned ironing & the clean it-irons-itself-if-you-leave-it-there-long-enough pile.

Have run out of fly-energy, dusting & vacuuming can wait.
