Mission

tortoise thread worms and no w/m sounds like a nightmare combination. I hope you get that door hinge quickly.

bewilderbeast - h/v here today, too. I'm more worried that she will be concerned about me than the condition of the house tbh I've known her for a long time and she is nice, so hopefully things will be good. Not sure why I said she could come though. Don't really think there is anything she can do for me...

Flame Keep up the good work

Kelly has sorted her days out at last,
My fridge is small and almost empty. It is not a big job to empty it and clean properly, so I my do that later. The freezer urgently needs doing (door isn't shutting properly) but will have to wait a bit longer.

Good morning Jelley, am absolutely shattered this morning, really do need to get on with my ironing today, nothing else really to do within the house.

glitterfairy · 09/05/2007 07:45

Morning jelley and aufish.

I will get on with my list from yesterday today and hope that today is more productive. At least the boiler will be sorted today as we have had no hot water to speak of for more than a week now and I am sick of boiling kettles and camping here!

Flamesparrow · 09/05/2007 07:55

Shopping order came last night... fridge is full!!!

Not about much today so dunno how much will get done.

EHM · 09/05/2007 07:56

Thanks jelly much needed !

Dh has an ulcer, and a big scowl as he can't drink alcohol or eat spicy food !

Sainsbos has arrived so better see if theres any nice bland food for him

Aufish · 09/05/2007 11:43

Hurray! Ironing is done, am dribbling at the moment in a Homer Simpson kind of way, there are Cornish pasties on this morning and now am feeling very homesick and hungry!

That's enough for now, have to collect ds soon. Hope to get the wm on before I go out and could do with tidying upstairs but not sure I'll have time today now.

ludaloo · 09/05/2007 12:33

thank you jelley

I've done the basics. Need to hoover but ds has a huge train track sprawled all over the floor. I will leave it there for a bit.

Right, I'm going to get some lunch, then have a tidy round
