Hope it keeps up for the rest of the week Tag, could you send some G-U-A-G this way please, and I hope your DS feels better soon...

Thanks to whoever wished my mum well too (sorry, forgot to make a note), she's just getting over a really bad cold so thought I should do something to help as she is always round when I'm not well helping me...

Have been procrastinating again, but have just jumped on the treadmill for 10 mins and am now knackered, so am going to jump in the shower and then do the shopping... see you all in a bit;)

Awh hugs honeybun

we all have down days/weeks/months ..... dont let the mess bother you - baby steps and all that.... listen to aunty denise - she's right.

I have a long way to go but whatever little bit that i get the way I want I try very hard to keep that little bit as near perfect as poss and then build on that - its like the shiny sink - I dont think of it as a challenge anymore its just a ritual/habit or whatever you want to call it - it just gets done! and now I am working on the worktops to go with the sink.
In the bedroom I gutted the bedside table thingy a while back and polished it up and got rid of the clutter and now a few weeks later it still looks good - I need to add the rest of the bedroom to it bit by bit!!
do you see what I mean??
HTH

Now I know it's not much, but I managed to eat a microwave meal, peg my washing on the line, unload the dishwasher, and load some dirty things into it. I didn't have time for a cuppa, but I've made myself a flask to drink outside school when I go to pick DD up.
See you later. xx

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.

(((hugs)))) kazw - cant help with the tablets but I hope they help

Everyone's had lunch including the dog. Think i'll sit with DS and pup and finish my book 'Burning Bright - Tracy Chevalier'. I'm really enjoying it but don't seem to have the time to read it for long.

Half hour reading challenge for me I think! xx

Afternoon ladies :j

Seem to have my lost my get up and go for some reason, I did really well start of last week then flopped and did nothing apart from wash up, make bed and cook dinners..
This morning has passed me by as I spent most of it in bed with the mother of all migraines, which is still there and really paining me. I have had to resort to my really strong painkillers which knock me out if I'm not careful And I haven't even bothered to get dressed - I am sitting here on the sofa with a fleece wrapped around me, a dog curled up at one end and my little princess Amycat snuggled up in a tiny space between me and the arm of the sofa.

I am looking around at the mess in the living room and really don't want to do it, but I have to as I have a man coming around tomorrow to interview me for my friend's reference for her civil defence job. And I don't want him to think I live in a pigsty, even if it is only downstairs that he will be seeing.. I did want to be a good girl and bake either a cake or some cookies to offer him with a cup of tea too.. Might be a bit ambitious of me the way I am feeling today..lol

Tag I am so glad that someone else has an obsession with pegs - I have to have mine all the same colour when pegged on clothes outside. I even bought a pink whirly gig to match my pink pegs And when I peg outside I have to have the same shade of pink on each side of the line too. DH went to help me peg out the other day and handed me a different shade of peg and he then decided I was totally weird as I went into a rant about how it had to be the same shade and how it through the whole look of the line out.. Now I know why I have to take my medications..lol

I have also found I am doing the same on the airer indoors now. We have just bought ourselves a continental airer and I peg the clothes on the airer like I would on a line outside - now that is sad!!!

Please tell me I am not the only one that pegs her washing onto an airer instead of folding it over..

Hugs for everybody feeling down - I am too but AF is due later so I do have a reason.

I often feel overwhelmed by the flying. I've not stopped really today, tidying, hoovering, cleaning, washing and I've not even started the living room and it just seems never ending - a bit like painting that really long bridge. Thing is I know I feel worse when it's not done.

Remember our houses did not get in this state in a week so will not be sorted out in a week. Decluttering really is the key but I find I have to put the cleaning on hold if I'm decluttering - there simply are not enough hours in a day.

I was going to put to sainsbury on my bike but can't be bothered. I have to take DS to beavers later and it is opposite so I'll do it then in the car, might even be some bargins at that time of day.
