    sexy loads and loads of *get interview and job* vibes for you honey - I am sure you will be successful.
    breathing is still hard work Dusty - thanks - its ok so long as I dont try to do anything apart from speaking - movement just uses up what little I am drawing in - It makes doing anything even harder work and everything takes longer but I will keep plodding on.
    Just had A HUG IN A BOX from a lovely flylady -the Po had tried to deliver it when i was in hosp so this is me getting it re-deliverd today - and its fabulous! there is a Fabric painting kit to stencil and make your own cushion and laundry bag and its got sea horses and starfish on it - I love it, 2 pretty coloured dusters (dont know if they will make me dust any better LOL!) time delay eye cream ( unbelievable - this is on my shopping list for boots!) and a wonderful fridge magnet " Good friends are like stars. You dont always see them but you always know they are there" - how very true - I am soooooooooooo spoilt - you are wonderful friends - Thank you so much - HSmademyday.gifHSt251.gif

    love

    Peace will be mine

    As I said, take a choice of things to throw depending on who's in there - I think they will would probabaly be looking at tomatoes and soft fruits, but what they can't see hiding in them eh! ;)

    Hazy is quite chirpy she is struggling with doors and jumping down from things. Her little skinny legs are bruised from the needles soshe is a bit sensitive and bitey. She is bored as well sitting in the cage all day and just coming out on a night for an hour or so.. after I have captured the other 3 and locked the catflap. When she sits she has to hold her head at a funny angle and she is getting flustered trying to see everything at once and is really jumpy when you touch her on her blind side.

    Glad she's up and about a bit more, hope she gets less jumpy as time goes on...

    I have been learning since my last post, a lovely user has told me how to use Twitter and Facebook properly for my business and it looks great fun - now, just have to find time to do it.... :)

    ETA: Enjoy your hug in the post Toots - you deserve it :)

    I've rescheduled meeting my friend for another day, she's fine about it, I've got very understanding friends which is great! DH said he will pick up the few bits of shopping we need for today, and I will get the other things when I can cope with it, hopefully tomorrow.

    I’ve done my bits in the village which I really had to do – put in a new prescription. Got my library books as the library was only next door and paid my charges as I’d ordered some books. People are funny. I asked the lady in the library for some silver coins in my change as I needed some change for car parking and she didn’t know what I meant! I said, oh 50’s, 20’s, 10ps and she said oh you really did mean silver coins. Umm, yes, that’s why I said it!
    I also find it annoying that the minimum you can pay for parking is 50p for an hour, I often only need 20 mins but they took that option away last year. I could still be parked there til 12:45!
    Anyway, moan over! Going to have some lunch and a lie down

    Hugs Tia, hope you feel better soon

    Welcome Nikflo


    Toots, do they give you anything to help with your breathing?

    I've also decluttered two items from the car, but one was a big bag of clothes that I need to sell on ebay!

    Hello All,

    Hope everyone is well and love, hugs and vibes to all who need them.

    I havent managed to catch up with the thread yet, so Im sorry if Im neglecting to mention things I should be. I dont mean to be ignorant, Ive just been so busy!

    I didnt manage to do much off my lists last night, but caught up with my washing and drying.....almost. Have folded up lots of clothes, towels, bedding etc which are not to be ironed and have put them away. So have diminished my ironing pile slightly, but not because Ive done any ironing! :D

    I did 10 minutes weeding in the garden last night, and repotted my strawberries, so that gets rid of those off my list, and also got rid of a load of garden rubbish.

    Ive decluttered lots of clothes into my Ebay pile and will hopefully get those photographed and listed soon.

    EBAY QUESTION: Ive been putting random books on Ebay, but they dont seem to shift very well. Is there a better site for selling books on or should I just give up and take them all down the Charity Shop?

    Love n hugs all round xx

    Will try for level 2 again today as my floordrobe is a little out of control (although I protest to the OH that it is easier to find things this way).

    Well done Rocketchimp. LOL about the floordrobe, don't do what I did yesterday and this morning, which was frantically searching through my floordrobe only to find that I had actually put away the items I was looking for! LOL

    Jo, re ebay, DH puts his books on Amazon as it's really easy to list them on there. You just type in the ISBN number and it does the rest for you apparently. He's sold quite a few old gardening books that way

    I've had lunch, I think I will tackle a bit of my floordrobe before having a nap
