    Well I managed to do a few bits in the bathroom on Monday, some bits in the lounge yesterday and I am doing more in the lounge today (why does our sofa turn into one HUGE hotspot all the time!!!)

    Cannot really do anything in the bedroom until we get the chest of drawers as we have boxes of clothes all over the show!:rotfl:

    Back to my cupboard then.. I've just shredded my own body weight in catalogue statements and bank statements and junk letters.. Ooh.. just remembered where there is another heap.

    My bed sheets are in the wash.. it is sunny today and it might rain on bedroom day (that's if I included it this week!!)

    I'm on one today.. I love sunny days!

    Awww! You guys missed me? :rotfl:sweet!

    It was hubby's long weekend so I did as little as possible! Actually he helped out a fair bit, well yesterday anyway.

    Just to drop the tone a bit, I just squeezed a spot, one of those ones where its a tiny white spot but there is a huge sore lump under it, and spent the past 15mins getting pus out of it! :( eurgh, is this normal? My chin was like, infected! gross!

    I am back, and flying! Hubby put the xmas decs up the loft so I have my hall back! And it's needs hoovering and cleaning like wow, so I am off with a black bag and the hoover to make a start. I have done loads though, honest, filter :coffee: is like rocket fuel, seriously wow.

    Tell you how hard I have been working? I found my all time favourite necklace! yipee! Wearing it now, quartz and amethyst, gives me an energy and concentration boost.

  • saversarn - I think the 27 fling boogie is originally from the American FlyLady site - Marla on there is obsessed with the number 11 and 27.......

    well I did all the ironing - it took me a bit longer than 30 mins but wanted to get it finished - just need to go and put it away now

    back in a bit
    I'd rather be watching CSI!
