  • Hello all

    I have spent another joyous morning at the hospital..not, I am fed up with the place already. They are now 90% sure my 'mass' is benign but have to go back after Xmas for an MRI scan & they are sticking to 13 February for my hysterectomy, at least I can plan towards it now.

    Mudbath I hope you are recovering slowly, take care

    Toots the emails have really cheered me up, thanks

    Love to everyone, will catch up with the thread now xx

  • I am sure with all the tips you get on here will be a great help to you,I think one of the most important things you have to do is to do a bit each day once you have had your big clean, as you will see once you have it the way you want it, it will be easier, HONEST, good luck

    Hi everyone, :santa2: just popping in to say I'm still following the thread, flying along to the list (thank you Pigpen) and sending healing vibes to all the poorly people. Have done all the bathroomy parts of today's list but stopped there so I could get outside and do a few tidying bits and pieces whilst it wasn't raining for a brief moment. Presents are wrapped too (quite easy when there's only two of us!) so just food prep to think about now. Wish I'd made some mincemeat, all your talk of mince pies is making me homesick ;).
    Cheers for now
    xx

  • i agree with you bizzy izzy! ive been psyching myself up for over a fortnight to clean my bedroom piled high with clothes to sort, iron or bag up, and finally did it yesterday - took me two hours but was worth it!

    I am gonna try really hard to get into a regular routine, e.g. wash up all dished at night, clean living area and prep as much as possible the night before, e.g. school bags by the front door, uniforms out etc.

    every small change helps,a nd i know i feel better for having a slightly cleaner house!
