Evening all,
Honu I haven't read that thread, but I sorted my paperwork by buying one of those metal mesh upright folder things (I think they are meant for keeping magazines in). Anything that isn't being dealt with that day goes in it. When I either need to find something that is in there or it gets full, I empty it out, pick out all the filing stuff, find whatever it was I was looking for and put the rest back. It works really well, I have been doing it since about Christmas and it really works, never lose anything and it keeps it all in one tidy place.
Blue - glad the photos went better this time
Swan - I know exactly what you mean about spring, we've got out winter coats, boots, shoes, sandals, sunhats , lightweight jackets, umbrellas, waterproofs and we've used all of it except the sunhats in the last week. I even had to get some gloves out again, having put them all away last month.
PA thank you.
Bitchy glad DS is OK now
Trying - I nearly finished the crochet, it's a cushion cover, the last few rows round the edge take ages. Onemore row to do then join the two halves tomorrow.
SC - hope you and DH have made up
MoreCats - muffins, yum, thank you.
DH arrived home from record buying at 9.30, just in time to help get the DCs ready for swimming. I took them, poor DS was the only person to turn up for his class so he ended up doing a lot of swimming! He took it in his stride, which was a relief. We then got in the car and they had their lunch while I drove them to the nearest city for shoe shopping, we went on the park and ride bus which we all like and had a nice time going round the shops.
Got back at about 2.30, half an hour later DH and his BF decided to go out for the rest of the afternoon. Great. Anyway, the weather was nice, DS was occupied with the football on TV and DD was happy to play in the garden, so I managed a couple of hours light gardening (still minding my back at the moment). A bit sad late on in the afternoon though, with the football, my beloved team have been relegated. Which is actually more than a bit sad, I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes thinking about it. I know, it's only a game, but it is important to me
.
DH came home and cooked tea, after which I retired upstairs to watch telly for a couple of hours which was nice. I then had to endure watching the National Lottery Show in my bed with the DCs, which is becoming a Saturday ritual, what a load of pants that programme is, but they love it.
DH and friend have gone to the pub again now. In mitigation he did manage 3 loads of washing this morning while I was out and has hoovered the lounge tonight. So I'm going to watch a bit more telly and have an early night.
