Hi Everyone
Sorry no pretty pic to start off the thread but my keyboard isn't working on my computer. I've tried changing the batteries but that made no difference and that's as far as my skills can do.
I'm feeling a bit torn today. My DGF has bought a rental place that needs a lot of work. She's taken a month off work to do it and 2 weeks are nearly gone. She did help us with our rental place but not as often as she said she would, and that was fair enough to as she works full time too. But we went away last weeknd. DH has been cooking up chilli jam ( ie messing up the kitchen a lot- jars and lids all over the place for days- saucepans with different things in them as well as jam splatters from here to Timbuktu!)
i worked 3 days and helped out DD31 on one of my days off and last week my days off were spent going to an interview and getting hair and nails done for that ( STILL haven't heard back either
? )
Anyway, my house is a mess. I don't think I will cope very well if I help out DF all day and nothing gets done here so I will have to live with my guilt and maybe help her on Tuesday.
Im going thru my house room by room and doing what's needed in each one.
I've started in my bedroom, made my bed and thrown out 7 booklets DH was going to give back to our church weeks ago but I'm sure they won't reuse them- they've even got the year 2011 on the front. I've hung the first load of washing and got the 2 nd on. I've made a note of the 2 pairs of DHs pants that need a button sewn on and I'll do that tonight.
Now I'm in the study I've ordered something on line I wanted so I can throw the catalogue out. Next I'll file papers away ( I've paid the bills) and tidy up DGDs drawings and sticker books and colouring pencils that are all over the floor.
ill make a list of all I do instead of a to do list. That should keep me motivated
Have a Great Day Everyone! X x
