Morning all. Hugs to FFP and for HB and Devilcat.
I should have listened to my body yesterday and rested. As it was, I didn't want to waste a day off, so carried on, and then spent all night awake in agony, and then passed out in the bathroom this morning with the pain. I'm such a wuss. Painkillers now kicking in.
So no flying here today. I am doing my treasurer accounts, sorting an online shop and just dropping the dogs off at the groomer shortly.
Hope everyone is having a great day.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all,
Where have I been again? Who knows, but certainly not flying. I resolve to be here more, the house is suffering for it.
Lynne goodness me, that must have been really scary, you are ordered to rest! I hope you are feeling better. Likewise Jazee, do nothing!
I'm going to do what I can from the lists, starting now. DD1 has her friend here until tomorrow (yikes, how did I agree to this, I am not good with overnight guests, especially children. It makes me very anxious and I don't sleep), but I'm just going to let them entertain themselves today while I clean.
Onwards!
PS Piggers good to see you back.0 -
Hugs to everybody having a hard time.:grouphug:
Thanks for the lists -All looking ok here at the moment. I did have window open but it's closed again now as it's quite chilly again today.
Started sorting through some summer clothes and have put some for charity bag.
Cuppa time and then out with dog.
Hugs

Where did the morning go??
Jazee -squeeze onto the flylady sofa and stay there until you feel rested. And yes I am nagging!
Not a lot ticked off from the list today so far, apart from HHI and dewebbing the lounge. I broke my feather duster so had to screw it back together - and there's a sentence I never thought I'd hear myself say!
Kitchen and dining room finally vacuumed. Likewise the inside of my car, hopefully ready to sell it
DD vacated her bed so I quickly stripped it while her back was turned and the WM is just finishing now, ready to go out on the line. The bedding on the line, not the WM..
Quick lunch, then I'm off to meet DH to go look for a car.
Oohh - WM done. Off I go... Catch you later.0 -

Thanks Jazee. You're not a wuss, you're trying to do too much, so, rest please along with Lynne on the Flylady Sofa. I'll send a Chippendale round later to bring a G&T with a large slice of lime and lots of ice for each of you.
Hi Greent! :wave: Welcome back.
Devil cat was very much more like his old self this morning and is now curled up on the sofa next to me while I deal with paperwork and so on, having been on my lap for an hour which slowed me down a bit. I need to pot up about a dozen plants and zip the vacuum cleaner around.Better is good enough.0 -
Thanks HB, very refreshing! Glad Devilcat is more normal self.
I have done the treasurer's stuff and the doglets are looking and smelling posh. Won't last long.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Shower rescrubbed, there were still some mouldy bits.. freezer partially rejiggled.. I am so going through that more thoroughly next time we come.. There is stuff in there I have seen in time after time.. clearly it doesn't get used because it is still there!! Did I mention I unblocked the vacuum cleaner which had slurped up a hair clip at some point and then wet floor grot so it was utterly useless.. it now clears the floor, I did express a bit of concern to OH that his mum might not be able to use it now it has suction..
Anyway.. I'm going home so can disappear for another couple of months.
