Update to List

So, the main reason for doing this blog is for me to complete my 'To Do List' I have been working on it and here's the next successful items. The only problem is now that I'm currently creating a new 'To Do List' for the things I'm coming across whilst doing this one. But, for now, here's another 37 items all completed with comments in some cases;_

3)Sort alphabets - peel off ones
4)Make Special Xmas Cards
5)Craft - do something once per week
6)Update blog regular
7)Spare duvet set for childs bed - this was one of the Xmas gifts that luckily arrived on time..phew
8)Help out more at school when asked - well, I helped set up with the Harvest Festval Dance..pressure!

10)More stuff to get done - see!!
11)Junior Movies - been a couple of times, 'The Tooth Fairy' & 'G-Force' -both very suitable Saturday morning entertainment
12)Check gap in cereal cupboard - this is cos this is where the 'rat' entered and munched it's way through ALL the cereal boxes that were in there - all exterior holes all blocked up now, so this shouldn't happen again (all crossed at this point)
13)Repair dining room chairs
14)Repaint radiator as I'd used the wrong paint and when the rad got hot it STANK!!! Have used radiator paint this time - success!!

22)List monies outstanding - shocking!
23)Overhaul accounts - even more shocking... is 4pm to early for Vodka?
24)What food for Christmas - didn't really matter cos ate at Brothers Xmas Day lunch. Left OH a lovely piece of steak, he had a cheese butty. Nose. Face. Come to mind here!! He could have come with us.
25)Melting Pot - Xmas gift - just need stuff to use in it now

33)Tighten fridge door - unfortunatley had to dismantle the cupboard first and pull it out. Took best part of 4hours..
34)Empty understairs - ready to decorate
35)Understairs - strip wall paper - oh gosh, now I need about a tonne of plaster to repair
36)Repair Dog Kennel - did this yesterday, managed to break the blade of the jigsaw (sorry Dad) and hit my thumb 3 times, thought I'd hit it twice more than once cos I liked it so much. Owwww!
37)Work bench - was going to use this to cut my wood for the kennel, but when I came to use it it not only was still in the box but it also need to be built....so I stuffed it back in the box and wedged the wood over the hose pipe container and the stepper machine. No wonder I broke the blade. Dad asked me if I'd swapped it over to a new one, but I said now it would have taken too much time so I used my hacksaw instead. Much more satisfying

Wow - that's a total of 122 completed. 157 to do - -almost half way through.

Long post and if you lasted to the end I salute you

  1. err think you may need to pack your bag for tomorrow and then you can read a book or watch a film. I wish I had tasks to complete. (DH just said I have I just don't complete them-need to make a list.MMM if I did that I'd see that I'm not completing them instead of not having them to complete-if you see what I mean).
