    My headache appears to be slowly shifting... another dose of caffeine should see to it.. and now my head feels like I am getting a cold.. I probably am not and will probably end up feeling a bit thick for a day or so and then it will go away.. no doubt down to nothing more complex than lifes general hassles getting on top of me.

    Just in the middle of parcel wrapping.. It is SO BOOOOOOOOOORING!!!!!!! lol

    I'll leave them here and send hubby to post them when I get back from hospital with DS2 later I think..

    I'll go get dressed I think.

    In terms of decluttering.. I disposed of the dead (headless) mouse Peaches was playing with in the bathroom!!

  • pigpen oooooeeeeeeeeuuuuch - hope its just the cat that has it and no ill effects to everyone when they get treated! Your life is certainly not dull!!!

    mudbath Hi!!good to see you are resting even if only a little bit!

    How did you get on boddy?

    I am not finished the worktops but needed a rest - muscles are a bit wobbly today
    I emptied and refilled and run the DW
    2 carrier bags of rubbish to the wheelie bin
    cleared (totally) the main worktop and scrubbed it clean
    cleaned the hob (just needs a quick polish up)
    cleaned the toaster and put it away
    took my medication

    will start again at 12.30
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last

  • OK. One toddler safely returned to bed. Who knows for how long though?:confused:

    Off to chop celery and potato for afore mentioned soup. Will fly in between cooking.

    Welcome to the thread restaholic.:hello:

    I'm soooo pleased with myself. I've done everything I set out to do and more. 2 washloads done and one tumbledried. The kitchen is nice and clean, the bathroom sink is done, the living room is sparkly clean and tidy. The dishwasher is loaded and is just waiting for me to bring down 2 coffee cups from the bedroom. I've brought down the washing basket from my bedroom and put away a suitcase full of summer clothes that has been getting in the way. I shall have the rest of the stilton and broccoli soup for lunch and then treat myself to an episode of Poirot this afternoon before I do the school run. I think I've earned it :D
