    Bit late here but I'm in - not at the yard today and done all my paid stuff so going to see what I can do from the list. As much as I'd love to do the deep clean I have to be sensible; not even been doing Level 1s for weeks so need to just give myself a chance here!

    I haven't read all the posts but hope all OK - hugs, sticks, spoons to all x

    Piggers I wish, it seems the seal on the double glazing has gone, there is a 'cloud' and condensation on the inside of the double glazing, it seems it is quite common in older glazing, which means the rest will go, another 8 are showing signs as I asked him to go round and check before leaving, my guess is the whole house will need re doing in the next 3 ot 8 years or so........best get saving some how, either that or move!

    Sleep decluttered
    Chicken cooking in oven
    Warm weather required please!

    Unsure how much counts as Flying, but here's today's stuff:
    • Dead inkjet cartridges posted off to Dogs Trust (they can recycle them and get the benefit of the payment).
    • Mobility scooter service done; Mr LW dealt with the engineer for me. :A £75 decluttered.
    • "Hot wash" done in the WM: a gazillion hankies, half a gazillion tea cloths including the one I use just for doggy bowls, bath towels and flannels; can't dry outside today, so the bungalow now resembles a Chinese laundry as I'm avoiding using the TD function unless I have to.
    • Dys0n filters washed.
    • Shepherd Spy made - this will do tonight's tea and tomorrows as a "ding dinner" as Mr LW is seeing the consultant tomorrow afternoon and we probably won't get home til gone 17:00 (he's asked me to go with him. :( )
    • Cherry crumble made.
    • Nut loaf made for the freezer - might as well have the oven full.
    • Mr LW has washed up for England. :A

    LameWolf I'd say that all counts as Flying! Been a busy day for you.

    Kazwookie yep, it's quite common for windows to go like that I'm afraid. Our living room window was an aluminium framed double glazed unit and the seal went in that so I know just what you mean about it being wonderful to be able to look out of the windows!

    Gathered together all the recycling and helped J peel veg for roast chicken we're having tonight. Z is at her BFs this evening so we won't need to worry about feeding her - his Mum is a good cook, unlike me!! I didn't get to finish the rest of the flying as I'm afraid I fell asleep but never mind, done a lot today. Just about to go out and trim the hedge to make sure our green bin is full up ready for collection tomorrow; we have a corner plot and the hedge grows like mad this time of year.

    I forgot to mention, I defrosted the freezer after the boys left yesterday; it was all iced up.

    I have them coming again for 17 nights in July, so I shall need to find space for nearly 14kg of their frozen BARF food!! :eek:

    If you're replacing a defunct bed, it probably comes under Decluttering. :D *Thinks for a moment....* The cost of a new bed also probably counts as decluttering, too.... Decluttering lots of £££. :eek:
