Afternoon. Two washloads done, both beds stripped and remade and one load of bedding done and nearly dry and clothes washed first thing and all dry. Indoors because it's cold, wet and windy again instead of lovely and sunny like yesterday. Otherwise just normal dailies done. Hope everyone's OK x

Afternoon all,
I spent the morning in the big town, taking DD’s car for a service and MOT. That’s a good job ticked off. I might have wasted some time by walking to the fabric shop, but I promise that I was very restrained.
The kitchen and utility have had a cursory clean and sweep, sinks shined. Admin tadpole has been munched, the frog is nearly sorted as well. Wm x 1, all hanging indoors due to incessant cold rain.
Last night I crocheted my first ever granny square using some of my stashed wool - it actually might have been my mum’s, so it’s been hanging around for a while. I am inordinately proud of my achievement!

hoovered throughout this morning and cleaned and tidied the landing window sill as well as the hall stand.
S&S the bathroom and shredded another notebook.
Dropped off a return at the PO for my dad and posted a little gift to a grandson. The postage cost more than the gift!

Hi Natty68
I would like to. join this community. I have ill health and find housework overwhelming. This method seems more sustainable for me.
Today’s Flying is that:- I’ve cleared sink of dishes and put dishwasher on, put away pots from dishwasher and taken rubbish out of my home to the bin.

a quick Friday flick around to put things in their correct places (how do they wander off and settle themselves into the wrong place?)
Washing folded and put away
DW unloaded. Swimming stuff washed and now on the airer.
Skirtings in the lounge and HQ cleaned. I also cleaned the metal carpet strips in the doorways - they look nice and shiny now. Sometimes it's the little things that make me smile.

Afternoon all. Two washloads done and mostly dry. Indoors obviously because it's going to rain every day for ever….
Dusted and vacuumed right through the house. Went to local small town and had a walk by the river which is much bigger and faster than usual but not overflowing luckily, then had coffee and bought a few bits and pieces.
Welcome Money Choices 2.
Hope everyone's OK x
