    school run
    walk dogs
    hospice
    flylady list
    work
    school run
    write 200 words for assignment
    shops
    quality time with DD

    Lets see how I get on!

    Hugs to you all and have a great day xxx

    What a difference an hour makes....went to put lead on Stripes and my back 'popped'. Now I can hardly move. Oh joy! Revised list:

    - see doctor to get mega painkillers so I can move

    This hasn't happened for two years so i'm hoping the painkillers will work again. No flying today :oxx

    Pauper, what did you do to your hand, hope you are ok

    Kaz, I meant to say earlier, my sister is a gardener and if she runs out of pots she just stuffs a loo roll inner full of soil and plants in that. I guess then she can just plant the whole lot in the ground when it is big enough. It looks odd but is effective

    Daydreambeliever congratulations on the news about the new babies! An Auntie x 2!

    Mudbath what is a haematoma? Sounds nasty hope you are ok

    AnW’s thanks for letting us know about Toots, hope she will soon be well enough to go home

    Hugs Holly it must be so hard to deal with

    Serena hope you are feeling better today and have a better day

    SianneLaz LOL at sitting in the sink to wash the window! Well done for being so determined to clean them. What do you do for work?

    Well done Dragonfly and Mambury and SunshineSheli you did really well yesterday. All you newbies are very enthusiastic! Impressive!

    Swinstie – I have a problem with my kitchen – I hate washing up. But if you chip away at it, it will improve. You can’t have biscuits for dinner! When it was really bad I spent the first 15 minutes of every hour washing up. Or washing up in the adverts of a tv programme gets quite a bit done. It’s more manageable than one big wash up. HTH

    Well done LilySue

    Fedup hope you had a nice sleep last night - your bath and hot choccie sounds wonderful!

    Hugs Mammamia

    Wilf, that’s great about your son. The link didn’t work unfortunately but great he did well and has been chosen for two more tournaments

    Welcome Flybabybunting

    Hope you and LO are better soon GnB

    Hugs Nevaeh and DD

    SunshineSheli – AF is Auntie Flo. HHI = half hour ironing HHS = half hour studying

    Tesco has just arrived, better let him in....

    ETA: Oh no Mudders, hope your back gets better quickly!

    Thanks Rosepink. I'm sure i'll be fine once I can get pills and then move! A haematoma is just a blood filled cyst/swelling. Bit of a pain but it's small at the moment so not too much of a concern. Have fun unpacking Mr T....can you send some icecream or comfort food this way!!!

    Flying - a took a whole towel upstairs!!!:j There's a pile of 8 towels to go up and I can only take one at a time, it took 10 minutes but I did it:T:rotfl:xx

    Wilf - that's fab about your son. Get ebaying quick!!
    Juliejim - what a nightmare about your trousers...sadly i've been there! Very embarrassing!
    Bevan -thanks for the suggestion of HSE website...i'll go and have a browse of that now.

    Flying....i'm going to move another towel!! xx

    Mudders, I have plenty of weightwatchers chocolate rolls, and some WW puddings - I will send them via carrier pigeon asap!

    It was so funny watching the Tesco man trying to deliver my shopping! He dropped it all twice off that wheely thing they put crates on! And then he had to pick it all up off the road and put it all back! Twice! LOL! Fortunately nothing broke apart one of DH's pepsi can's, so the driver confiscated the whole lot. I checked if th banana's were bruised (my mother has trained me well) but they were ok.

    I hoovered the LR yesterday and it's decluttered and dusted. Not much left on my list now!

    Shopping arriving morning
    Support worker and CPN
    Visit inlaws
    Wash up

    My lovely support worker is coming at 11:30. Unfortunately she is bringing my v rude CPN with her. If she's rude today I'm going to ask her to leave and refuse to see her again. I don't need people bringing me down, I can do that well enough on my own. She's abrupt, abrasive, rude, and critical. I don't see why I should have to spend time with her! So there!

    Mudders - hope your back sorts itself out soon xx

    I have awarded myself a star for yesterday because the kitchen is done. I've started on the living room. Just having a cuppa before I dyson the life out of everything - the animals are still moulting something rotten.
