 Hi everyone
Hope you have all had a goodnight.
This is working well for me -posting the night before. Im out of bed and straight into it! Yesterday was great, I got so much done. DH whippersnipped and mowed the lawns as well. I even swept the back porch which was something i was going to do today  I also attempted to do my own gel nails-lets hope I get better with practice!
Tonight we are having 2 couples come for a bbq tea so I have to get some stuff easy for that too
SATURDAY
To Do
Shower, wash, dry & straighten my hair, dress, load dark washing on, empty both drawers of dw, wash a few dishes from last night  . Make jelly for trifle, boil some eggs, make a beetroot and philly dip, feed chooks and collect eggs,
Wash some outside windows -at least the kitchen, lounge and familyrooms, Wash inside of sliding door- any other windows will be a bonus, hang out washing, pay those bills and paper filing, ironing

Hi Judy and those to come, Happy New Year!!! I'm wondering if I need to introduce myself again as I've been MIA for so long!? Last year, the overwhelm just crept up on me and it's only this week of work shut down that I'm sleeping again and getting things in better perspective. So, lots of resolutions for me about doing what I'm paid to do at work and not taking on other people's problems and trying to fix them. Had a wake up call at the drs - blood pressure a bit high for the first time in my life. So that's a real priority too. Today is another relaxed day. DD is having some friends over for a surprise party for twins whose birthdays were on Christmas Eve, so I want to give the living areas a once over so it's clean and tidy for visitors. DD is doing the rest of the preparations. I think DH will probably take the boys to the movies, which will just make things easier. I have work I want to do to get a clean start on next week. I also need to email one of my bosses to check her plan for next week. I usually work for her Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and need to get back to doing that. I was more than 30 hours ahead on her work last year - a buffer for some flexibility is good, but that was getting ridiculous! So, morning routine now - dress to shoes, make bed, S&S. I plan to go to the gym this morning before DDs party as well as sweep and neaten the living areas. Wishing you all a great day and a very happy new year. Attachments:

Good Morning! We have a am staff staying she just arrived and is loving being the only girl amongst all the boy dogs haha

Ash is still asleep I think yesterday's adventure to the hospital wore him out.

I'm going to put a load of laundry on and put away a few baskets of clean laundry this morning
Clean upstairs hotspots
Scoop kitty litters and feed cats and rabbits

Hi Everyone
Jac I wasn’t dressed until after 11am either today. Late night for me = sleep in! Nice to meet you Elizabeth!  -just joking -we did miss you and totally get how busy you are!
I forgot to put “talk to my DSis on phone for 1.5 hours”!! on my todo list Obviously that will put me behind a lot!
Oh well it was nice. Im just about to wash my windows. But I first have to find a hose ‘end thingy’- I always tell my DH I just want my own hose with attachments that nobody touches! I dont get it- why does anybody take them off??!! I probably won’t have time to do everything on my list so the ironing probably won’t get done. My theory is... (and feel free to use it  ) -its much easier to hide a basket of ironing when visitors come! 
Ok Im off to do some more
Have a Great day!! x x
