Afternoon everyone. I'm just about to sit down for a late lunch but wanted to send this first. I've been up since 6.30am..I even bathed and got dressed then.:eek: I can't believe that one..lol.
I clipped back the bushes out the front, we couldn't walk down the front path without getting attacked by a bush..lol. Did some ironing while listening to the radio. Hubby now has a weeks worth of shirts and trousers all ironed. Two loads of washing on the line and the dogs pillows/duvets washed. Cleared out the final cupboards in the kitchen that needed to be done. And I even went into town and got some shopping in Wilkos and Aldi's that I needed, although I got the wrong bun tins - thought I needed muffin tins when I should have got bun tins instead. DH said he will get me the right ones tomorrow when we go out shopping. So must remember to pop muffin/cake cases on the shopping list. Took the library books back, and popped my prescription into the doctors. I even managed to get some ear drops in the cats earDefrosted/cooked some rhubarb for a crumble tonight. I will make this later on while cooking tea
We are off to get my mums stone cat, for her grave at the crematorium, tomorrow. So I wanted to make sure all the housework etc had been done, well the stuff that needed doing.
Dustykitten I really do need to continue with the councelling, unfortunately my last lot was 3 years ago, but as mum died not long after I finished this and as my depression/anxiety is showing itself again I thought I need to tackle this head on otherwise I am just going to keep going around in circles. And as mum and the abuse is the main reason I can't move on well these have to be worked on. So I can't really give it up even though I know it is going to take its toll on me, thankfully I have a good mental health team/GP and DH that will be able to see me through all this. I should come out of it at the other end, with any luck
Rosepink hope you have a lovely time MOAM. And remember she has come to see you not your home.
bevan840 have a lovely time at your parents, and we will see you when you get back.
Mudbath enjoy your few days away.
Greenbee hope the wedding goes okay and the bride and groom are pleased with the cake, and everyone enjoys it.

Hi flygang,
I've had a lovely day - a nice drive through some beautiful countryside and then a fun chat with Rosepink & her DH. Came home and then DS dropped home to me by a friend.
A lovely lazy chilled day....but now I best get the carcass up and moving!!
We're away for part of the weekend so things need doing, and now,
see you later
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.0
