Good morning ladies, hope we slept well.
I have woken up to an ant infestation in my kitchen!!! 
Yesterday was my first day off after 11 shifts straight!  I swapped a shift (so I could go to DFriend's 50th this Saturday coming) and also accepted an extra shift not realising this made 11 shifts in a row!! I'm off again today then back to work tomorrow.
Yesterday was day of 'REST'!! Yeah right, after working 11 days straight?? I managed bit of WHB, 3 x loads, sorted thru 2 boxes of DS18's stuff that he said he didn't want (I tried very hard to be ruthless BUT still having difficulties letting go  ) but I did throw out a few things, continued on Moving Tasks. Dinner was curried sausages and I can't remember what else I did, oh that's right chatted with DS18, he's going well we actually interrupted him, he was studying 
Today's another busy day: M/R, call r/e re: ants, take car for RWC, Yoga, ironing, Moving Task, prep. for work (Tues), letter to DON re: roster changes, advertise car sale online, dinner - beef & mushroom pie, well that's what's on top of my head.
Sorry not replying to posts, need to keep moving, continue cleaning up this ant infestation!!!
Hope everyone and theirs are healthy, happy and safe. Have a great Tuesday!!!

Good Morning Sys and all the Lovely Ladies to come
Hi Sys, long time no 'see'. WOW you have been so busy. I know it's been alot, 11 shifts in a row, but think about the pay check, well worth it. When you are going through the boys things, remember you can always go through things again later on. As long as it's packed up and easy to transport. DS18 has only just moved to Uni, I can understand you not wanting to let his things go too.
Today is DH day off. So far today his TADA list is small. He's still in bed, lol. I however have been up dressed, had coffee, 30mins treadmill, ironed 5 things, taken DD16 to school, consulted on DD19's outfit for Uni, quick chat to DMum, ran a sink of fresh wash up water, emptied 2 vases of dead flowers and flaffed about a bit.
TODO's for today. Finish ironing. Begin WHB. Put Pillow Protectors on new pillows. Put folding away (did 3 baskets of folding yesterday). Decide What's for Lunch?, What's for Dinner?, pull the kitchen back into order. Quick grocery shop (they were out of our yoghurt yesterday) and trial a few Dukan recipes I've been copying (there is a meringue recipe I'm extra keen on)
Ok, time to get a wriggle on. Wishing you all a Marvelous Monday and a Wonderful Week ahead.

 Hi Everyone
Sys- what a pain with all the ants! Just what you dont need after working 11 days straight as Im sure you have a lot to do. Why are you keeping DSs stuff that even HE doesn’t want?-hhmm- thats not very FLY. Are there many homes available to rent where you are. I know people around here find it difficult to find something
We had a lovely day yesterday. We dropped in unexpectedly at DFs who were i the car backing out their driveway and asked us to go with them to a lovely pub for lunch where we met up with more DFs. Didn’t need and dinner last night as lunch was pretty late (we had to wait an hour after we ordered)
I have today off work as things are a bit quiet but tomorrow another colleague is going on holidays so I will probably have to work full-time for the next 3 weeks. Not really sure what to do today. We have 2 english backpackers coming tomorrow and they are supposed to do 4 hours work each, each day, for food and board so DH says i have to leave stuff for the girl to do. I would normally do the ironing today but DH says she can do it. He has 6 shirts in the ironing so I will do 2 just in case she doesn’t do it for a day or 2 or he will have nothing to wear lol. I will go to the bigger shopping centre as i need a new pair of work pants and even some work shoes if i can find some. I want to mow the lawn but I can’t start the jolly mower. DH might drop in if he is able otherwise ill wait til he gets home
~MONDAY~
wash, get dressed, make bed, dark load washing on, make my breakfast smoothie, put away clean, dry dishes on sink, wash a few more, feed chooks and collect eggs, put out recycling, pay bills and paper filing, iron 2 shirts, clean out fridge a bit, hang out washing, another load on, water all pot and hanging plants before they die!
Go to shops, bring in mail and deal with it, hang out 2nd load washing, folding and put away,
mow lawns
dinner, dishes, feed dog,
clothes and lunch for tomorrow, take out meat for tomorrow
Watch Love Child!
Early night for Judy!
Whats for Dinner? L/O cannelloni from sat night- it was yum!
Have a Great Day Everyone!! x x |

Hi Sys, hope the ants are dealt with easily.
Good Morning Shellie and Judy
Today DD is back at preschool, she is well again.
I have a list that is VERY long
DMum and Nana are in New Zealand, I have work to do for both of them while they are away (the joys of having an only child is that people ask you to do things for them :/
Have a great day

Hi Everyone
Lots of appointments today Elizabeth! Glad to hear DD is settling in nicely Medusa!
Well I had a very successful shop and I’m very pleased! Got the pants i wanted, found some shoes, remembered to get hooks and a couple of hand towels for guest ensuite and laundry and i bought a light weight windcheater and trakky daks which will be good for relaxing in after work or when we go camping.
Im going to sit and have a coffee before watering all my plants- the poor things really need a water 
Hopefully DH will be home soon to start my mower and i can sweet talk him into doing the front if i do the back 
Catchya x
