    Hey all!

    Not doing much again today :( Back feels a bit better but the last thing I need to do is to throw myself into housework and ruin it for another few days! Feel very lazy though!

    I would have done more this afternoon but I'm off for a brain scan in a bit so need to go and have a shower and get reasonably clean :)
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

  • SS which ABs have you got now? Hope you feel better soon - did she say you still have the Evil T?

    Hi DK She's given me Erythromycin, which I've had before, so hopefully should be ok. Doc says I've definitely still got tonsillitis, stomach stuff is related to the evil T, and the ABs and Ibus, which wreck my stomach, and I should know better than to take them. Chest and back pain due to wretching yesterday (sorry if that's TMI)

    Got the fire on :p Very unusual ATM. Keeping the heating super low if not off. But hey, doctor's orders!!! :D

    DSmiffy I think we say we're in as a 'Statement Of Intent'!!! We post what we've done to get a least a sense of achievement for what we've managed to do.... housework is so thankless, and mundane that any boost we can give ourselves, or each other is a bonus. IYSWIM! Good luck with the windows. I use stardrops on mine.

    I've not done much today - but I have scrubbed all the fiddly bits in my shower using an old toothbrush!

    I've just seen this album advertised on tv. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290267950413&cguid=c77120c411c0a0aad40541a5ffd534f7

    I've told DH that we can't afford xmas pressies for each other this year, but as he's going to a rugby match in Scotland in a couple of weeks (which is costing us a small fortune :mad:) maybe I should drop a hint? :D

    Now I really must go and do something useful. :rotfl:

    Well so far I've :
    • Washed a batch of dishes (got them all cleared :D Then made a cup of coffee :o:rotfl: )
    • Took DD to school, including her new book on Egyptology (This one! She loves archaeology stuff so I don't mind buying it for her, although I did get it from Waterstones at £17.99 :eek: )
    • Took DD her bag of Barbies etc at playtime
    • T175 - Q1 done, and some of the reading. Its boring ATM :o
    • 2batches of dough made into buns (using the BM), first lot now in the oven. :rolleyes:
    • Letter retrieved from the recycle bin (I nearly fell in :eek::o )
    Now I need to phone my tutor about my assessment. :rolleyes: :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Basic food shop ordered for tomorrow - can't be bothered with shops right now. I will need to go to the farm shop at the end of the week for anothe sack of spuds so can get some extra fruit and veg then. Think I'll look into doing a meat order online again - I'll add that to tomorrow's list.

    Right need to go and turn the tv off or DS3 will be in there all day.
