 Good Morning Girls, I hope we have all slept well my home is almost done apart from the bottom half of the kitchen - laundry and second loo. We need to save for those. It is so nice to be just doing normal house work. I still need to do the floors in the lounge-room, dining-room and kitchen but in all honesty that is like mopping the floors so I don't count it! Having wooden and slate floors they will always need up keep!
At the end of this week I will get the chance to throw all the paint tins, paint rollers and brushes out and then I am going to also throw out all my daggy work clothes; so it's time to celebrate. I must say I am so excited I am going to restart the baby-steps and build my C/J. I am so EXCITED!!!
I am going to be able to go back to sewing, knitting, quilting, embroidering, baking, cooking from scratch ...................and the list can go on and on and on....................
My next thing to do is the garden. I want lots of veggies, fruit trees, raspberries. Our home has been a long slog but worth it all the way! I have a few pretty things to put up on my walls. I will post photos later.
You precious Girls have kept me sane the whole time through this and I can't thank you enough for all your love, support and encouragement. It has been hard doing it all the while dealing with my precious Antony's depression but you dear friends have kept me going so thank you all. Did I mention I am excited!!
I hope we all have a wonderful day sharing our day as we serve of families with love!
Love you all so dearly.
My To Do list will follow

Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Nice to have you back Jilly. Well Done on deciding to restart the BabySteps and your CJ. I think it's good to refresh sometimes and take a new look at things. And it sounds like your home is all refreshed too, good for you.
Yesterday was a pretty good FLYing day for me. 2 'Loads a Day' FROM START TO FINISH. Daily Routines and Shiny Sink at bed time. I got ALL the hand sewing done (that gives me back 7 bras in my rotation, I hope they hold out now another 5-10kgs, then I can buy new). DD16 had 3hrs at school yesterday and handled it quite well.
Today DD16 is striving for 5hrs at school, I am trying to balance between encouraging her to try and being thoughtful of her fatigue, we will see how it goes. So that will leave me with 5hrs here at home ALONE!!!! Bit excited about that too be honest, it's been over 4 weeks with DD16 being sick and DD20 on Uni break. WooHoo, 5hours of doing and it staying done. I have 1/2 the house to vac through, my exercise, Load a Day, What's for Dinner? And my Anti-Procrastination task is clean out not 1, not 2 but 3 handbags (and repair 1 with a stitch or 2 in the handle).
I was just thinking, I might try to do some 'Zone Cleaning' on Speed this week, as I think next week I might be returning to work. I do keep up my Daily Routines pretty well, but there are just some areas that are not getting that deep Zone Cleaning. Not loving the idea, but think it really needs doing. I will put my thinking cap on today and plan that out.
Anyway, time to get moving (and get DD16 moving). Wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday. I hope your feeling a bit better Medusa, Elasti I hope your 'holiday' with DH has been productive, Elizabeth I am sure you are finding your balance in all things work and play. SYS, I hope to see you back here soon and all settled in your home and routines. Judy, I am sure you are having fun, you always do.
xoxo
