Hi everyone! Sorry I've not been on sooner but I've been working hard honest guv! DH has had the day off and we've been trying to tackle the flat. I've done quite a bit off my nursery slopes five a day list (well actualy DH has done some of it as I stuck it to the fridge and I think it motivated him!) plus we've dealt with the stuff from the car and had a bit of a clean up/tidy up under the bed altho there is A LOT more to do under there but that's for another day.
In between I've been asleep as I kept coming over all funny. Felt a bit better after my sleep so I got the gravel out of DH's truck to put in the bottom of my new pots for the garden - I must have caused lots of amusement for the neighbours as I couldn't lift the sack and had to drag itt across the road and across the grass to where the planters are! I need DH to put the gravel in the pots or I need to find something to decant it into so I can put in the planters myself. Need to think about that.
Hope all are well, I'm going to catch up with the thread now.
