Morning All

I'm just going to have a quick bath and then get ready for work - can't have a shower as DD is still asleep and it'll wake her up!

Nicki and welshgirl - hope all goes well today.

gtx - hope you're feeling better this morning

I still haven't caught up with everything with not logging on Monday night and I've forgotten most of what I've read - so hugs to all and sorry if I've missed something important.

I've got to take DD swimming tonight as my dad is going out and DH is on a night out so that'll cut my flying time tonight. I normally get most of it done while she's at swimming!

Have a good day all

Jue

Declutter the clutter.....:rotfl: i just know i won't get past lvl one today !! Our study is a dumping ground. Leftover tiles from bathrooom & kitchen.. some of my BIL's tools... bits of carpet ofcuts... a clocking-on clock(don't ask) and that is just the obvious things. Better get started!

Penny don't overdo it.

Morning all

Another bad nights sleep but at least it was 5am that I got up not 3am like yesterday, was so bl55dy kna£ckered last night that was in pj's by 7 and asleep on sofa at 8!! Tea was easy as I took a curry made in sc out of freezer, rice and nan bread.

This morning I've;

drunk 4 coffees- MUST DRINK LESS
washed and dressed
aired bedroom and made bed
put sc on for corn beef hash
cleaned up sawdust from rabbit
fed rabbit and gerbil
filed nails and glued 1 down, if it comes off there WILL be blood and guts it's that far down the nail bed

We 'accquired' the rabbit on friday, young couple who live in apartments(we live in what was the playground of an old school and the school was turned into apartments) was chasing it around the mews last tuesday, DH managed to catch it and because he's such a softie said we would have it if nobody claimed it - they don't have a garden. So of course local vets, post office, newsagents havn't had anybody asking about a lost rabbit. It's enormous- filled the laundry basket of the couple when they brought it over. So had to buy hutch etc on saturday.

If you can remember the film 'little shop of horrors' the rabbit is like the plant - it's forever staring at me demanding food!

We call it Shim (she/him) as we don't know what sex it is and haven't managed to pin it down and squeeze nether regions to see if anything pops out - sorry if your eating breakfast!

We got the gerbils from DS old girlfriend as her cat didn't like them, we seem to collect waifs and strays including the odd teenager! 1 has died now and DH was heartbroken - you'd never know he was in the army 13 years and served in first gulf war!

Thanks for all the suggestions for elbow - will go to health food shop today and stock up

Hugs for all those that need them xx
