    Fedupandskint - hugs for you

    Toots - embb usually goes AWOL when Big Brother is on. Emily posted maybe last week to say she was ok and that she and her DH have sorted themselves out

    Pigpen - I took a tom in who had been shot in the leg with an air rifle a few ears ago. CPL were more interested than Police, but even they said nothing would happen about it. I kept him for a while but he was an evil cat - I have scars on my arm from where he attacked me! CPL re homed him in the end.

    Soappie - I now have finished all five rooms so more stars please.

    I just ordered a walk in shower and a new white suite for the horrid green bathroom on the strength of 4 days consultancy next week, pleased about the bathroom but really struggling with the workload. I have one big project ending 6th July, one on the 13th and then another one that I havent got details of yet - but need to complete before school holidays start. Great financially, but negative work and a bit difficult from a child care point of view. If I don't post much you know why! DH has moved into a different role with the same company so he can't help at all - he is mobilising a new contarct so mostly isn't here. *starts hyper ventilating again*

    Off to hoover the car and then to weed the veg plot.

    I'm still working through stuff - nearly all the washing is done now - just one more load I think. I'm trying to sort out the conservatory a bit and I've condensed the ironing into 1 mountain rather than numerous hills!:rolleyes: I've washed most of the dishes just 1 more load to do when I've put away the ones that are on the drainer. I've sort of decluttered the LR floor and the settee. I've spent most of the morning in the conservatory though inbetween hanging out washing and reloading the WM!

    Anyone joining me for another HHC 1.30 - 2?
