At home today!!

Oh has been outside cutting a down a very sad apple tree, whilst I have been in the kitchen doing my favourite chore "Ironing".

Why oh why does the pile never get any smaller......

The boys have been playing in the garden and now both are asleep at my feet whilst I am ironing.

It has turned out to be a fairly nice day too, weather wise.

Off out with in-laws this evening to Brighton Marina for a meal.

Have finally cleared the filing cabinet of very old letters and stuff that are no longer needed - wow what a lot! The plan was to get the shredder out and shred it all, but realised we would be there forever doing it, so we burnt it! A good job finally done!

Kev is out tinkering in the garage, the boys are drawing, cutting and sticking, Hollie fast asleep and I have that can't be bothered feeling - so am on here!!

I hadn't done any filing for two yeaers so finally bit the bullet and bought a shredder (£9.99, Staples, bargain) and got down to it. Two hours later I had a huge black sack and a half full of shredded paper, and the pile of filing had gone from being three feet high to 4 inches...... good job jobbed


PS: Shredders in Tesco are only £8.97 !

We did the same job!!!

Soooo glad it's done, it's too easy to put things in the filing cabinet 'just in case'!
