  • Evening everyone
    you have all been exceptionally busy today - pigpen and her mountains of washing and both AnW's Mum and Juliejim for massive decluttering spring to mind - but you have all done well.
    Me - - erm I S&S the bathroom and the kitchen then spent the rest of the day spending money - or thats what it feels like - but I got a few bargains and I got 1 or 2 bits for later in the year!!!!!

    Triker - WOW thats a lot of work - I hope it hasnt set you back today - your alternative medicines really seem to be working on your virus. Keep up with the resting and pacing. Its so good to hear you more cheerful honey (((hugs)))
    soappie why did they ever think they would get the better of you - for goodness sake dont they realise you are a force to be reckoned with and will not budge - can they not see that if soappie says thats whats needed they should just thank you and get on with things - sheesh -men and councils - all the same!!!!
    greenbee glad things are working out in your favour - I like your re-training ideas.
    aunty you are naughty - i dont want any last minute panics to get the assignment done - whats it about this time?
    helen jelly - glad yesterday is past for you all (((hugs)))
    rach hope your cold and bad throat is a bit better now - you should have been resting today not trying to do things!!!:rolleyes:
    welcome to the thread - svjenni - hope you will soon be feeling better
    ellenandjess you are welcome too and well done you making that decision in your life - I see our illustrious leader has explained about the lists - i will send you a pm shortly too - I have tried to send you a pm but you dont accect them (private messages) -I know Quillion will help keep you right - you will be fine here - just jump in and start :D and if there is anything we can hekp with just shout
    cyclingyorkie - hope the wedding goes well and you have a lovely time.
    jinky hope you are feeling better hun (((hugs)))
    KazW its lovely to have Rosie with us - thank you and more (((hugs)))
    pigpen what kind of phone cable do you need?
    milosmum Have you completed all the wednesday list and do you need a star???????????
    ooh no pooh i hope your back is better now and you are not in pain
    poorbutrich hope you feel brighter tomorrow and get past 'taxiing down the runway' (((hugs)))
    juliejim what about using some baby wipes to freshen him up underarms - and try him wearing pure cotton next to his skin - its often the artificial fibres that cause the smell - some kind of reaction i think - I see greenbee has got the answer that I was trying to come up with! and well done with the decluttering - you are on a roll.
    AnW's Mum - well done to you too - I am sure she will be well pleased hwen she seees it and will try to keep it tidy - she is very proud of her Mum and all the dot2dotting!!!
    Johanne (((hugs))) honey it must be hard for you but it will get eaier in time.
    Alibobsy (((hugs))) hope you feel better soon - you are doing well with the lists - keep at it - baby steps - little and often and you will soon see a difference
    Jo hugs for you for all the frustrations of today - sleep well and tomorrow is another better and brighter day honey - you know where I am if I can help.
    Boddy hope the toe rags dont annoy you and congrats to DD xx
    yes OS you can - got all those photos sorted???


    ok off to bed to recover - hugs to all the poorlies and feeling down or whatever.
    sleep well everyone
    see you tomorrow
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    Toots... what are you doing up so late? I know you like to keep up with the thread but when you came out of hospital last time you promised you'd be good and go to bed early! We don't want you (or Triker or Lady-Liberty) wearing yourself out!

    Suppose I should go to bed now... :p
