    Morning everyone. I'm still struggling with motivation. I feel like there's so much to do I'm overwhelmed by it all so I sit around doing nothing at all instead !:eek:
    Did hardly anything yesterday except go round the house looking at the mess and tutting...

    Today I want to wash my bedding and Dyson the hall and stairs. I know it's not much but it's better than nothing at all.

    Didn't get on yesterday, went to visit DS at uni & got caught in the snow, skidded & got stuck but thankfully we are ok. DH, who didn't come was not impressed, he wants me in one piece so I can have my op next week:rotfl:


    Havn't managed to catch up, but I see G&B & LO need hugs

    Denise glad you had a good weekend & some heat, not fair:D

    I have done the washing up, & the ironing so far this morning, WM on.

    Not much hope of me getting a star, but so long as I can keep things ticking over I will be happy.

    Hugs to all xx

    We got snow :eek: Not supposed to be this area (stamps foot)

    I've put out the recycling box and that is as far as I am going. Particularly after I watched the cars going up my road.
    Think it's about two inches and wet snow.

    L-L - stay safe
    LG - hugs, try and get some rest
    Gerti - wow, you are doing well
    G&B - hoping for good news
    HH62 - do what you can, baby steps.
    Please go carefully those who have to go out.
