Hi wasting - I dunno how much I'll get done. I'm currently doing 10 minutues work and 10 relaxing otherwise I can't see me getting much done at all. I've got nil motivation at present! I should have loads because we have a viewing on monday. Housework gets me down maybe even depressed. Moan over....

Hi plum Yes we are trying to sell ours, not seen anyway puuuurfect but I am reluctantly selling anyway, love my house but we don't have a garden.

Hello ladies, no list today!! Just dropping in to say hi.

Am a bit sad that I can't go to my neighbour's funeral. The only day this week I have an absolutely unmovable commitment is Friday pm. Guess when the funeral is? Friday pm. Any other day I could have moved things around to be there. .

Anyway, I will simply have to "send" my respects and a donation to the collection (they do have collections at funeral don't they?) via my friend who is going.

Hope JKS is ok, gorgeous day today (though depends where you are I suppose!) and stropi am loving your lists, uber organised lists and plum what a bummer on the dress. That is absolutely typical! Grrrrr. How long til the wedding??

Blimey, just noticed, we are 990 messages.... do we get killed at 1000???????

Hello! Any titles yet? Or am i going to have to make up something? You have been warned!

Morning all! 995!!!!! Gulp. Alice over to you.. I'm new at this!

Ugh, tired today. DH has taken DS out to rugby, the PIL's (staying last night and tonight) have gone off to run some errands and check on their new house so it's just me and DD for a couple of hours....

When the PIL's stay, we ALWAYS stay up far too late. Last night, it was nearly 1am and me, MIL and DH were mucking around on ITunes (just figured out how to buy tunes!!!) for hours. It's as addictive as MN!! Ah well. Can't happen tonight, as it is a school night .

So today's list is a bit thin on the ground but here's a few things:

• Washing out and up to dry
• Unload DW
• Finish digging up the spuds with DH
• Ironing
• Sort out playroom
• Walk dog
• Clear crap off the kitchen table so we can actually eat a family meal on it
• Roast Dinner at 6pm (yey!)

i need to:

• help dh make lunch/tidy up afters,
• hoover downstairs,
• clean toilets and bathroom,
• pay some bills on the internet,
• help dh make tea/tidy up afters,
• bath dd.

I will be back later.

How about Blessed are the ListMakers (with apologies to Life of Brian!)

If it is crap, and you have no idea what I am on about, just say so and PLEASE think of something better
