Toots - I have finished todays list
.Hope you are feeling ok today?
Jo - best of luck with the bed. I am very rubbish at assembling things so believe me I sympathise. Puppy is fine thanks - still smells of compost, as fast as I wash him he heads back in there.
Dusty - huge hugs for you, it must be a big strain having all that stuff to sort.
Flower - thanks for sorting the map.
Greenbee and anyone else on Linkedin who wants to network - PM me your details please so I can add you on. Most people I know are consultants though - I sometimes think it is all any of us do :rolleyes: .
Although I have finished todays list I need to S&S the kitchen, put FLYpuppys collection of abandoned stuff away, hoover downstairs and make some caramel custards to use the eggs up.
ZCC - joining yours late instead.

In my HH I
Changed LOs horrible nappy
Put away pots
Tidied LR
Took 2 black bags of rubbish to mums bin
Cleared 1 hotspot in LR,top of chest of drawers.
I feel down at the moment as we have had to sell our minibus ,it was a 16 seater which we used to do minibus trips with but since OH started on the coaches we havent used it.........I REALLY love that minibus.silly I know,Iwill miss it though.
Really cant afford to keep it as Insurance is £600 a year to start with.
We do have a 7 seater car but its not the same we have always had a minibus,OH drove them when I met him 20 years ago:eek::eek::eek:Feeding 6 Adults 1 Teen a 8 year old with hollow legs and a very fussy 5 year old. Also 3 cats and 3 fishies

I'm up from my nap, feeling better but hungry! All I've had today is hobnobs! Which are surprisingly energising! Am going to have a bath now and hopefully clean bathroom
Have texted DH about the dinner situation, as I looking the freezer and all there is are fishfingers which we had yesterday for dinner. Oh no! Need food!
Hope you find the walllet Polly, men are amazingly good at losing things. Spent Monday looking for DH's truck keys. And he went through a spate of being paid and immediately losing the money/cheque which was v. annoying. He has now learned to put it in his wallet, not his pocket!
Hurry up baby, arrrive and be a little flybaby! Hope it comes soon Mummy"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

WoooHOOOO I have caught up:j :j
Sunnygirl hope DD2 is on the mend
Summermoon you made a very brave and loving decision about Max - try not to worry he will find another nice home soon -dont be hard on yourself its not an easy thing to do but it was the right thing (((hugs)))
juliejim would you please tell polkadot that I am so sorry to hear her news and I hope she is recovering - hugs to them all. xx
flower hello!!!! your list is as scary as ever!!!:rotfl:
jjef hope the TMA is going well
wendywitch bless you for helping your Mum and hugs for your M & D - I hope she finds the list helpful - maybe even your Dad might get interestd if she pinned to the fridge? I am sure he feels very frustrated at times.
embb thats a lot of work you are getting done - fantastic - you will hardly recognise the place hwen they have finished and WELL DONE to DD getting the job:T :T
MOF77 how are you feeling now honey? have you spoken to your tutors - I hope you will carry on and go next year instead. How is DD?
Sunnygirl I am so pleased about your friend's results ((hugs))) I love your sunflower!!
Mudbath well maybe you cant manage the housework without me but you have been doing your accounts - now thats impressive!!!!
AbbieB do you have a death wish or something???? 10 4/5 years olds - you are totally bonkers!!!!
soappie WTG I am delighted you got your proposal passed - all that hard work paid off - excellent news! Hope the funeral went ok (hugs)
froddy i dont know how you cope with your pupils being taken to hospital - very stressful - hugs for the little girl and I hope she is back soon
AlwaysHappy awh huge (((hugs))) honey - you are having a really bad time there - why not try a little reverse annoying therapy - fix the biggest cheesiest grin on your face that you can muster and that will annoy the hell out of them - they will be wondering what you have been up to! If they speak to you then be so sickly sweet and nice they will think that they are not getting to you and maybe just maybe they will back off. Bullies like to make people miserable so if you can pretend that its not upsetting you then they might give up - I know it sounds hard but the more you do it the easier it will be and think how much you will be annoying them for a change!
The Dragon sorry to hear about your rash - have you been overdoing it you naughty fly person ???? be sure to rest and eat well - the housework can wait! Hope you have some cream to stop the itch!!!
Dusty hope the new DW is going well - enjoy it!
Mudbath Just pop spotty dotty potty poppy puppy dog on a bus heading north and i am sure she will find her way - fridge full of bones waiting for her!!! More mad ....no just the same I would say!!!! Hope DS feels better soon.
TAG I hope DD got over her upset this morning - GGRRHHHH at mr TAG
witchypoo there are several of us (me included) with a 'toxic' friend - they drain you - take care
carol22 keep up the good work with the essays/studying. thats great news about the old flat - hope the viewing goes well.
rosepink hope the shoulder is less painful - take it easy or it wont heal.
xx_Jo_xx well done on your bargain - very MSE!! more than 5 drawers of toiletries and makeup - WOW!!! well done to you then for realising it had to stop and doing the 100 day challenge - although you may have to keep going a bit longer to use it all up and get back to normal!!!
AbbieB awh bless thats a lovely story for today - what a wee treasure he is!
AnW's Mum well done with the bathroom - why dont you do what ZCC72 did and only put out one of each and use them up before you put out any more - sounds like a good suggestion/solution to me - I am lucky in a way because all the sample/little bottles are handy for hospital stays- and I also use them for holidays so that they dont have to come home again when finished.
SAVVYMUMMY welldone on finally getting the room done - thats been a big job for you - you should be well chuffed!
Spirit hope the paintings are turning out to your satisfaction!
scared1980 hugs for you - hope you can sort out something to suit you too

pigpen hope the studying is going well - how many assign,ments have you to do and by when?
