    Back from work, had a quick catch up here, good luck to those currently on their HHC, I will start one once I have worked out what needs doing and post it.
    LJD glad birthday is going well and your hubby made it home to see ds face.
    All others with aches and pains hope the meds are working.

    Hubby has just phoned to say that the forth bridge has been closed with some minor structure damage which they cant fix until the winds have died down to 30mph (from the current 80-90!!), so he's not sure when he will get home, he can go the long (land) way round but last heard there were 6 miles of tail backs that way:eek:

    Anyway my catch up list for today (sorry lil_me I need to swap days and do the bathroom today and master bedroom tomorrow my room needs the more time)

    [STRIKE]
    WM
    DW
    Beds
    evening meal

    dust living room
    hoover living room
    [/STRIKE]

    wash down tiles around sink
    clean ensuire shower, sink & toilet
    hoover ensuite & bedroom floor if I can clear
    ironing - 60 mins minimum
    clean out fish tanks

    Right I have until 2.40 to tackle as much on here as possible, see you all later.

    • Dishes done
    • DW emptied and reloaded
    • WM emptied and reloaded
    • Mirrors in bedroom cleaned(took about 10 minutes, they were covered in hairspray:eek: )
    • Master bedroom tidied and hoovered

    Well I found the floor in here which is a huge start! Sorted paper and plastic for recycling and started putting the filing pile into some sort of order ready to file in their homes now that I can reach them! Makes sense to me :p Shredded some papers and started to shift stuff off this desk. Found a pile of cardi's that may be too small for W but were too big last time I looked.

    Off to sort the rest of the filing pile while watching neighbours with a :coffee:

    Happy birthday to LJD's DS!!

    Today I have:
    done the weekly shopping
    painted two walls
    taken assorted offspring to school
    bought a very nice curtain pole with cut glass finials for the bedroom

    Washing up not done...however, I bet my bedroom is better than anyone else's:rolleyes:

    It contains, a bed, dustsheet, large amount of newspaper, brushes, roller. paint - and nothing else at all!

    Off to do the remaining two walls before collecting children again.

    Hugs all round, whether needed or not! See you later....
