So whats wrong with me??!?!? I hate being like this, feel like crying for nothing!Big hugs to you Summer and everybody else struggling today :grouphug:
But the good news is that instead of going back to bed as I would normally, or sitting in front of the TV trying to distract myself from how I feel, I am actually doing some flying! :T

Thanx likklegibbon, I am being good, not as good as my MACAW would suggest tho. Will get some bananas on the way home from school, see if that might help.
Have done a little bit mmore flying.... been and moved floordrobe onto my bed lol. Will go and fold and put all washing away in a bit, then unload wm onto the airer, and put another load in. Thought if i got up and did something it might improve my motivation but it hasnt worked lol.An' It Harm None, Do As Thou Will

Hello!
My hhc challenge went on for two hours! I've;
- sorted out the ironing so it's in one basket instead of four (it's VERY FULL)
- sorted out all the underwear (no-one had anything left in their rooms)
- walked the dogs for nearly an hour
- cleared the spare sofa
- opened the conservatory blinds (doesn't sound much but i'm trying to make it a more used room)
- s/s the kitchen
- s/s the living room
- cleaned the hall floor
- cleaned the living room floor
- put washing machine stuff in dryer as it's all underwear and I can't be bothered drying it on the clothes horse / radiators etc.
OMG it's snowing and I was going to walk to the shops....not bothering now!
Hugs to all xx0 -

Not bad, not bad!! I'm very pleased with myself. I have also S&S bathroom and kitchen, WMx 1, cancelled a course M150 with OU and pre-registered for next Spanish course, HHE and HHS.
Chicken breasts are out ready for curry for tea so now I am rewarding myself with a HHComping!!!
On a different note, why when I c&p my list from my previous post, my strikes weren't there?? Does anyone know??

Kaz it sounds very harsh of your vicar, what could be offensive about daffodils????
I agree with you, is was only 3 bulbs I was planting at the head of my mother's grave.
I could of understood if I was planting 100's or 1000's of them!
and what really annoys me, is the 1st graveyard (as my mother is in the new grave yard) is full of flowers and blubs that come up every year, and it is a rural area, so my 3 bulbs were well with in keeping of the area.
