    Soappie, you fret as much as you want love :) It's nice to actually be fretted over by all you ladies, especially as DH doesn't do poorly.

    Mentioned it to his mum today, as she wasn't well a few weeks ago, and we both agreed that DH and his dad are from the same mould. They both don't do poorly, or sympathy..and it even frustrates her after 50 years of marriage..lol

    Although I will say that my "moaning" must have made some impact on Dh as he came in with a lovely bunch of flowers for me yesterday, as well as the white envelopes I wanted and the new Argos catalogue..he had been into town and he sure knows how to spoil a girl!! But he's now back to his normal self and not doing pity..lol

    Anyway I am off to bed with my book, and will catch up with everyone and lists tomorrow.

  • I'm in again this week and I hope to better than last week. My get-up-and-g got up and went in the 2nd half of the week.

    Jo I'm sorry you had such bad news and I hope things will get better very quickly.

    Thanks to Pigpen and Soappie for the lists and stars/hearts.

    We might let you join us if you're good ;)

    Soappie - I've just posted on last week's thread. I had a quick rummage through both my wardrobes, and took out all the tatty stuff as well as making a pile of stuff to try on, and now reckon I've finished Thursday... so can I have another star please :D. I will continue working through my drawers, so that everything is sorted and either clean and packed up for winter, or clean and packed up to give away, or clean and packed up for charity, or cut up for rags!

    OK... do I have another quick walk round the block, or do I give up at 1400 steps short of today's target and go to bed. I think... as I'm so close, I might actually try to reach my target!
