    Tuesday thrills - Master bedroom and landing - done
    It's so much easier this second week - now I understand the benefit of baby steps. I used to avoid the cleaning as it seemed so overwhelming but now it's ticking along nicely thanks to you fly ladies.
    thats brilliasnt blimus - yes it does work and its not hard or rocket science either = well done.

    pigpen - how exciting for them all - and Ds and Gf have a house to come back to ? - that IS excellent news - i hope its not too far away from you and in a reasonable area.

    There - that's my tuppence worth!

    I had a thought, you say your carer helped you hang stuff on the line - have you managed to get it back in again?

    I really wish I was a lot closer - sleep well Toots xxx
    :rotfl::rotfl: soappie I love your tuppence worth! I can always rely on you. As for the stuff on the line I have been out a couple of times and got some of it - just 2 towels to get before I lock up - its not so hard when its dry and lighter to carry and I just took my time!

    I wish you were all nearer too so that i could meet you - but in some ways I am glad I am not as you would be taking it in turns to check up on me!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::D

    Thank you all for your concern - it makes me feel very lucky to have such lovely friends.

    Right its bedtime for me.

    Hugs to everyone - hope you all have a peaceful night
    sleep well
    love and hugs
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    Toots - you'd not be troubled over much by me if I were there. Nice Neighbour always chuckles when I phone her before a potential visit (even on our Friday evening get togethers) and ask "are you in?". She says I should just knock. But I don't! I wouldn't presume that far! And she knows she can phone anytime - and she has done.

    I'm off to bed now. Sleep well everyone.

    Wow toots reading about your day wears me out! Sorry to hear toxic was not as helpful as she could have been, she really needs to find someone else to help her with her online stuff at least in the short term until you are settled into some sort of routine.

    Miss A & W were great at the dentist and got stickers for being good and letting the dentist look at their teeth :D That is another job out of the way, have set up a reminder for next year so we don't forget!
