    Just a quick addition to my earlier post - I wont be staying in for the radio therapy so you will still have me posting - I will have to go daily for it! Will have more news on thursday as to when it is going to start but need to get organised(especially food wise) as it does make you extremely tired I understand.
    Night all,
    toots xx
    Hugs Toots, but at least you will have your own bed to sleep in at night. This week, everytime you cook dinner cook two and freeze the other one for next week! I'm sure you already do this, but we often do cook big batches of things, freeze in individual portions, and then all we have to do is heat them up, and cook rice/pasta to go with. Hope you get things sorted.

    I only woke up at 10! DH left for work at 7:30, but he left the heating on, so I was all hot and groggy when I woke up! Feel really groggy still. Am waking up slowly! Will start flying soon.

    Hi all

    Toots!!! Welcome back... and thanks for nagging me about studying... I've handed one essay in today, need to finish one for tomorrow...

    And got a text at 9pm last night saying someone is coming to view our old flat tonight at 8pm, so I have to go and clean it ahhhh! Half of our stuff is still there, so i'll just have to do what I can to tidy up. It's fairly clean, just need to S&S kitchen, bathroom, and vacuum I think.

    Big hugs to everyone who needs them, I caught up with the thread but am useless at remembering who I mean to mention.

    Right, I'm off to write the last 700 words of this stupid essay.
    Lots of love and happy thoughts

    I was away an hour in the end but I got quite a bit done, washed up, made the soup, washed up again, swapped wash loads over (thought I'd do every waterproof thing we have whilst i'm at it :rolleyes: ) Not showered yet though! Going to do half an hour or so of work stuff and then get ready and head out around lunchtime, I can go to bank and PO then get bus back and give the car a run etc. The spare room futon now has lots of holiday stuff on so I'm getting there! DH has written a really comprehensive list (he's a star, really organised!) so I'm following that.

    Summermoon, I know it looks like a big old scary list - break it down into small,manageable chunks and you can do it!..... join me in a HHC 11-11.30 - and anyone else who can!!

    I need to get a wriggle on today. At least I managed to get out of bed, which is a start!! I'll begin by decluttering myself, and tackling the bathroom from today's list......

    Then we can break for :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: Help Yourselves!!
