rumbly x0 -
Done the tasks allotted by Pig Pen (up to level 3) [polishes fingernails on jumper with a smug look on her face]
Also done:-
folded yesterdays washing and put away
ironed the very little which built up - half a dozen hankies and a pair of jeans!
WM x 3
Hung out two lots of washing - surprisingly it's actually drying in this freezing cold!
TD towels
Pizza dough rising
Apple braid dough rising (I've not made this before)
Need to:-
pick up DH's prescription (it was ready last week and I keep forgetting!)
get dinner sorted - DH wants a curry, and I might make a bakewell tart or chocolate fudge pudding
Think that's about it. Now I'm off to make yet more coffee and maybe have a couple of rice cakes for lunch - then it's Doctors (my one little indulgence)0 -

Afternoon - lol
Living room, hall, stairs and landing all tidy and just a few bits to finish in the kitchen
Need to do baking and cooking later.
Hope everyone is ok and cuddles to those who need them.
Back later.
