    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Hi guys,

    I have just sat down with a cold beer after an exhausing day. If I haven't lost half a stone I want to know why!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    All three bedrooms are now devoid of furniture and carpets, not a mean feat as I have been humping about a third of it down stairs as the bathroom floor will collapse if I try to squeeze anything else in there.

    The three of them are sleep on my mattress next door and my utility is choca with the three carpets and my bed, my lovely Sis will help me take it down to the local council tip tomorrow. She popped in at 7.30 after work and helped me upend DD's bed and remove the carpet from her room.

    What areas of the house I can reach have had a quick swish and hoover but I am stuck till tomorrow. The local recycyle place are also coming tomorrow to take away half a dozen bits of furniture that we no longer have room for. If there was ever a time that I wished our house was minamalist it's been today. :rolleyes:

    Cooking has been a non issue today allthough I did pull out some chicken to defrost this morning - I wil have to bung it in the SC tomorrow with something or other as it is going to be another busy day.

    Anyway still got to lay out their uniforms and do the lunchbags, better eat something too.!!!

    Mean marie - Hugs to you both, good to hear that they have got to the bottom of it and that Ulick will be home soon.

    Beth - Glad your consultant is pleased with DH, Gentle hugs to you both.

    Pen-pin - Hope you've had a good day today. Hugs to you.

    Whatawit - Hope your FIL is Ok hugs to you and yours.

    Well best get off or the kids will go hungry tomorrow :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Hugs to all else in need, have a good night.

    Smoky. xxxx
