    Hellooooo, remember me? My goodness this week was supposed to be my quiet week! Anyway I've all but given up on catching up on the thread because my internets still being cack, the BT men were in the village all day again today so I do wonder what is happening.

    I've managed to keep up with the week apart from my room which is still a bomb site, linens clean but I can't even get to the floor space we do have :o ooops. Anyway I will try and do some in there over the weekend with the rest still being pretty ok I should manage to fit some time in. Oh I'm also way behind on my studying so got that to do too......bother......

    ((hugs)) to all who need or want one, couldn't resist an awwwww @ little cute pupsicle that hex posted, he's lovely!

    soappie, not fair, my water rates has increased by about £35 a year :(

    Spending today nothing, wasted 2 bread rolls :o
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Brilliant!

    Glad you found your ring...

    I have got my bedding out of the WM - took my own advice re Borax, and my whites are whiter than white! On the clothes horse now drying. Made bed up with stuff that I ironed - me, ironing! - from last weeks list, so that made me happy. I'm easily pleased!

    Should get OrganisedMum diary tomorrow - thanks to whoever posted about the sale! I'm not a mum,but a friend has one that I have coveted for a while - they're good for all people. I'll transfer pigpens lists to them, so I don't have to keep logging on here and getting sidetracked!

    I'm off now, time for a read then bed, HUGS to all, and good-night x

    ETA: Dustykitten, is all ok?
    :A FLY FIRST, KNIT LATER :A

    My utility room floor is done :j :j :j ... I need to give it a good clean tomorrow to get the rest of the grout off. And I've got a whole week's worth of flying to do as well.

    I'm out tomorrow afternoon, but plan on going to be imminently and when I finally get up I'll try to do a bit of flying before I have to leave. I'm exhausted after a week with my dad in the house... I think I'm too used to living on my own :rolleyes:

    I've managed to keep my lent fast, but haven't really kept up with the exercise and physio. Hopefully I'll fit a bit more in next week, but then my mum is coming to stay next weekend (we're doing the garden apparently!), so that'll disrupt my routine again... but hopefully we'll do a bit of walking as well as gardening.

    I'm just about caught up on the thread... I'll see a bit more of you all over the weekend ....
