    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Hugs Rach, sorry to hear you were so upset today. Glad you could take the afternoon off, it’s nice to take time out

    Thanks Sunnygirl for the link to the oven cleaner, it looks ideal. My auntie gave us a Lakeland voucher so will go and buy it asap!

    Hi Cranbournekat welcome to the thread

    Mozzy, the peelings land on the chopping board. All he has to do is scrape it off into the bin. But no, he just pushes them on to the worktop so he can chop something else.

    Roxy, you go girl! Great news about the compost bin.

    Julie, it’s down the back of the tv, or behind the cushions on the sofa

    Toots, really glad you are near the end of your treatment. How are you feeling? Have they said if it's working?

    Despite having a lie in and an afternoon nap I still feel absolutely worn out. I plan to do some more washing up this evening, but don't think I'll be up to much else. We'll see.

    Right, so for today I have done Level 1 and then ignored Level 2 completely (If you saw the state of my oven you would know it's a Level 3 task :D) and gone for Level 3.

    I have just spent the last hour cleaning the fridge, washing the drawers of the fridge out, cleaning the door seals of the fridge and throwing out scary veg. My flatmate had peppers which were growing blue mould. Eek :eek:

    I'm going to go and put dinner on now (Later than I meant to, but dear god, the state of the fridge...) and hang up the washing. I'm also planning on cleaning out a drawer while the tatties are cooking, but don't quote me on that.

    *Edit* Sat on t'interpipes instead of cleaning out drawer. Can't hang up washing yet on the hangerupperie as OH is watching football and it's a vital game. I shall wait until the end.

    Thank you for the kind wishes Rosepink, Crafty, Embb, Hex, (love wisteria too ;)) Dusty (Thanks, I think it's the weather/hayfever too) and Toots (and anyone else I might have missed :D) - went to docs and they sent me for a chest Xray, so spent about an hour up there waiting, all done now, results back in 1-2 weeks :eek: (I actually asked them to fast-track them, no point getting stuff back in two weeks, i'll either be better or a hell of a lot worse by then - they're going to try to do it today and get it there for tomorrow for me...:rolleyes:)
    I got back and was zonked, so had a crafty nap on the sofa and woke up about 4pm... don't like being ill, it wears me out... :(

    Mudbath, huge hugs for you and successful operation vibes for your Dad - they are brilliant in what they can do nowadays, I'm sure it will all go well for him...:A

    Hugs Rach, hope they get the job situation sorted soon for you and sorry you had such a traumatic time at the hospital - sounds like you needed to get it out of your system - hugs hun x :A- haven't said thanks either, got everything in the post you sent me, not had chance to look properly yet, as I want to do it right, so will spend some time later this week and make a start.

    Toots - glad everything is going so well with the treatments and that you only have 2 left (that's a weird word you know, they are never exactly treats are they? they should be given another name, unless it's a spa break like G&B's pressie... now that IS a TREATment:rotfl:)

    Embb, glad you got the DD sorted - I hated phoning up, that's how we got behind in the rent before - well done you...:T

    Who you watching at 9pm Valli??? :D:rotfl:
    Happy Birthday Maralum:bdaycake:hope you've had a good one...

    The usual term for separating out seedlings into bigger pots - starts with p and ends in k!
