    Off to find another hotspot....the steps into the 'library' I think. Please don't get the wrong impression - the 'library' is the little corridor into the extension. We put shelves all down one side and gave it its name xx

    Had a mad hour trying to clear as much as possible, this is what i have left to do, going to do an hours study now.

    TAG - very impressive list, like how you have your night time bits listed as well might have to copy you on that one.
    Dusty - I have only been able to use one code at a time, but have ordered two shoppings to take advantage of two codes (deliveries came on different day but still worked out cheaper than just having one big delivery)
    Dusty & Mudbath - where did you get your shoes from? I fancy getting a pair during the oct holidays.

    Study books here i come, will be back later

    Cleared a hotspot in the living room although not my hotspot. We were off work last week and DH promised he would clear his corner but of course that didn't happen. So I've done it and I bet I was a lot more ruthless than he would have been. And I bet he won't miss any of it. I found a lottery ticket from 1995! Even if it had been a winner it's well out of date now. Some of it thrown away, some stuff just put where it belongs. But I can get the basket shut now.

    I just need him to go through his pile of fishing magazines and put the ones he has read in the drawer upstairs. I'm not mean enough to make him throw them away. Yet.

    Jjef - I got mine from JLewis. Lots of people sell them but just make sure they give you a proper fitting and make you walk round the shop etc because they are expensive and need to fit properly. They feel a bit tight to start with but shouldn't feel too tight. I love them and no i'm not on commission.

    Just done the library stairs hotspot....these hotspots are definitely not as bad as they used to be. Need to decide on the next one now........

    Ok, and this might take me some time, we've got pigeon hole type shelves in the dining room where the children keep their school stuff, I have one for my study stuff etc.....i'm going and I may be some time! xx
  • I'm feeling quite low today. I just got in, and despite trying really hard to do all the jobs on the list for the past 3 days, the first impression when I got home was a tip.
    I only have 45 minutes before I have to go out again, so I'm going to have some lunch and a cup of tea. I might just have time to unload and load the dishwasher. I feel like I could cry.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    I keep wanting to burst into tears as well.

    I have been to the Dr’s this morning, as I have certain women’s problems!! (comes with getting old!) I won't bore you with all that happened to me on Saturday as it will put you off your lunch. Maybe I did too much flying!!

    The very nice Dr has put me on Utovlan, does any one experience of this, maybe you could mail me, as I know we are not allowed to hand out medical advise, but it is not the advise I am looking for it (the Dr gave me all that, and told me he wouldn’t be a women with all we have to put up with!!) is the experience of it all.

    Magazines, I usuallys drop them off at the local day centre, that's after me and the ladies at the caravan have read them

    Dusty codes with XX at the start you can use one, if I need loads and there is a few £10 off etc offers I split the shop.

    ((hugs)) for Kazwookie aswell, men think they have it hard!

    Anyway, got a 'me u and kids' type calendar for next year, I ended up paying over the odds this year for one and appointments have started coming in now, got some rolls and bread(sorry no time to bake at the mo!) on and some Jungle Formula in the sale. They're selling off loads of that type of stuff in Boots if anyone needs it.

    Got to go, ttfn

    Been to dentist, still in pain, got ABs for infection and appointment in a few weeks
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
