    Hi,

    I'm so tired it's unreal. I've cleaned the carpets in the whole house. It took 5 hours:eek: . After i'd finished OH picked me up and we took the carpet cleaner to his house. He did one rug ( he's got no carpet in the house ) and said this is really hard work:confused: , i said how do think i feel i did the whole house:rolleyes: .We have to stay upstairs now as the living room one is still wet.:rolleyes: I might light the fire to help it along a bit.


    Apart from that i've washed the breakfast dishes and not a lot else. All Ds2's toys are in the dining room, i took them out of his room to clean and i'm not putting them back until they've been sorted. It might take me some time:rolleyes: .

    :wave: Back from the doctor and I've been pulled and mauled and poked and now I have a couple of exercises and back in 10 days. Also got some antibiotics for my cough, wasn't going to ask but he offered something for that.

    So in a minute I'm going to sort these clothes out and try and find something to feed the hordes!

    holly well done, it's hard work doing it all in one day, that's why I prefer having a vax so I can just plod along with it. Have you got a dehumidifier? They help I think. If not window open (to let moisture out) and heat on might help.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    :eek: you just reminded me, that thing that goes round his neck, I don't know where it is! I know where his sweatshirt is. He's saying because he's scared of the dark? I wonder if it's either because we have to go out/home in the dark or if it's because he went to the church last week and the change has knocked him to pot.. Kids!!!!!

    Summermoon with the move I am sure your family won't be expecting a lot. With the bank try to get it refunded, some are accepting people arguing now than reclaiming later. We aren't spending as much this year, last 2 years I went daft so hoping family doesn't expect the same again. I think a lot are in the same situation this year, we've got over 10 friends/family now out of work due to redundancy and it's ever so hard, I don't even like to mention it in front of them
