    I've done washing up and more looking. Thanks for all th ideas. Might hav to put th bed up to have a proper look under it. It's a bed that folds into th wall, but we don't usually bother as it's only the two of us here.

    It's definately not behind the chest of drawers. There is a cupboard on top of them that's as wide but not as deep as th chest, so there is a three inch ledge that I put my rings and watch on at night.
    DH has told me which drawers he opened this morning, but he says he was putting stuff away, not getting it out so he hasn't got th ring. I'm going to have a more thorough look through the drawers, as did rummage through them but will take every thing out and look properly.

    Going to have lunch first and read my book!

    Second lopads of washing in.

    Dw has been emptied and living room has been cleared.

    DS has had to dress up like someone from a musical for comic relief :rolleyes:

    Well Dh was due round on Tuesday but was too busy at work, same again on thursday AND Friday but is having DS saturday evening until Sunday afternoon and is having DD Sunday morning. Our plan is that he has both overnight but think it may be a bit much for DD at the moment.

    Myself and OH have folded the mountain of washing and taken it upstairs.

    I've wiped the table down again.

    TD on.

    Some rubbish from DD1's bedroom put in bag.

    I feel awful today, shaky and ill, slept until 11 and then came downstairs and promptly burst into tears. Poor OH, I'm supposed to be looking after him.:o

    Its a beautiful day so I'm going to pull myself together and get going properly. Last day of my 'leave' before the weekend, I'm really hoping OH feels a bit better over the weekend so we can get out of the house but it doesn't seem likely.

    Need to go to bank.

    Pay some bills.

    Flying wise not much has been happening slowly ticking over the washing most of it is now dried and needing to go away the rest has joined the ironing moutain.

    Hope all well on here havent caught up at all, may try to later. Just going to sit for an hour with my book and then tackle the bathroom so with luck will have something to cross off later.

    the dog shelf... the place you keep the dog.. the floor!!!

    *tut* .. some people are just too darn posh! :p

    Oh! I thought it was the shelf where you kept the dog (in my case cat) things! So, I cleaned that!

    Have spent the past 2 hours :wall: on the phone to BT. They are charging me when I should be getting a refund. All they seem able to do is "remove the additional charges as a gesture of goodwill" leaving me owing them £4. Small amount, I know, but they owe me about £30, so I am not letting it go. Probably not the best day to deal with it though, as I am frustrated :mad: and constantly in tears - stomach cramps kept me up all last night, and not in best frame of mind - Can't differentiate between black dog & pmt today!:o

    I am determined to fly today though - just off to strip the bed, turn (v heavy) mattress and vacuum....oh, and catch up with rest of thread!
    :A FLY FIRST, KNIT LATER :A
