Well that was productive! Have done washing up, now there is only one sinkful left. Can't remember the last time I had so little washing up to do!
And I've hoovered the bathroom, and part of bedroom floor, hoovered mattress, flipped it and hoovered the other side. Under the mattress was a pair of DH's pants and 2 of his socks.:rolleyes: And the underside was more dusty than the top.Anyway, glad I did it as he was complaining about his allegies kicking off every time he gets into bed. It's definatley not mold this time, can't find any, so it might have been the dusty mattress. Let's hope he's better tonight.
Will remake the bed later, hoover the kitchen floor and declutter the LR floor. Also need to hang out wet washing.

I don't think I'm going to be able to get the oven cleaner from Lakeland this week so will move the oven to my personal list and cross it off the kitchen list. Hope this is ok. It will get done, possibly over the weekend or early next week."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Just realised I need to watch an episode of ER today before it disappears from the website. Going to do that now, and then do some more flying after. See you later!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Toots - she's a dogue de bordeaux (think Turner and Hooch :rotfl:) who is totally unaware that she's grown any bigger/heavier since i got her when she was 5 weeks old so sees no problem with sitting on my lap!
Will catch up properly later ladies (and gents) as at work atm and getting onto the internet is very much hit and miss dependent on IT's mood i think!0 -
Morning all :hello:
Denise - Sorry to hear of you loss.
G&B - ~~~vibes to your mum~~~
Toots - YOU REST!!!!
I've woken up feeling worse than last night :mad: My mum was saying that someone she was speaking to said their son had had it and it lasted 4 weeks coming and going :mad: Apparently there's nothing I can do about it either, just ride it out as its a virus. Unfortunately Johanne's daughter & my brother have both got it as well.I feel really guilty now for passing it around, but then I just thought I had a cold, didn't realise it was a virus!
Got to keep the house reasonably dark today as DD still has a migraine, thankfully though its raining here so as long as she stays in the shadows I can have the blinds partly open, just enough light is getting in that I don't need to put the light on. :rolleyes:
Flying will be done at the points when I get energy bursts... its weird this bug, I'll feel lousey for a while and then all of a sudden I feel good and able to do stuff as normal. Now I know I shouldn't do it, but I'm going to make the most of those "normal" points otherwise the jobs won't get done.I promise I'll rest up properly as soon as I've made the house more presentable and bathed DD.
