Its cold outside

Its quite cold and windy today so not much done in the garden, juice is on the agenda again to try and keep the colds and flu away.

Its school holidays and I have a child who likes to purchase things and I refuse to buy, I dont give allowances unless jobs are done and I pay by the job, we have a list what each job is worth.  For example
clean car $5.00
Bath dogs $5.00
wash dishes $1.00
vacuum # 2.00
clean cages $5.00
take bins out $1.00
I have a lot more but that is just an example.

My decluttering and spring cleaning is still going I try to do one thing at least a day and today was my ensuite.
The whole cupboard was cleaned including make up and brushes, this shelf was covered in all sorts of things before I tidied and decluttered it. I got rid of 3 bags of bits and pieces just out of this small area.
I think tommorow I will do the upstairs bathroom. Its a bit hard in school holidays hopefully when school goes back  I can get stuck into it, Im really wanting to get my reiki room happening.

From the time this child got out of bed he wanted to make scones, we finally managed it for afternoon tea
