Hello all, I have completely failed to keep up with the thread and the housework, feeling a bit demoralised.....had so much planned to do today and have done diddly sqwat, dinner nearly ready and Poirot on in a mo so don't think anything else will be done for a while either.
Thanks for listening xx

Hugs sweety hope your feeling better soon. I had a bit of a f#ck it day the other day we all have em. Think they are called 'Duvet Days' i like them in the winter.

Will I shut my eyes for 5 minutes and woke up almost 4 hours later... oops...

I need food.... and a cuppa or 3 to combat my caffeine deficit head ache.

As a result I have done absolutely nothing... again.

I need to get the tv to DS1's today and I need a shopping list for sneakling off to tesco tomorrow morning while the gremlins are at church with XH.

I need to sort an apt gift for DS1 for his 18th in a few weeks.. ideas most welcome.. I WAS going to do him a party bu they won' be able to take Jacob and he can't leave gf out so .. sshhh... I'll pay for the party after the christening instead.... if I can.

Hex which pics were they? Was it the 'indoor garage' to 'middle room' pics??

and.. yesterday I slopped together a banana and cherry fruit cake thing...

Afternoon

Been to the corner shop and walked around the block. Trying my MBTs again before I decide whether to ebay them or not. Really achy from doing the pilates dvd yesterday so at least it works a bit.

Toochoosey - Often a day of doing nothing renews your get up and go so please enjoy it rather than feel guilty.

SSL - great cake. The album is for an assortment of snaps I found in a bag - mainly from the 1950s and 1960s so small square ones and various other ones so I want one of those album which you peel a page up and stick them in rather than a slot in one. I am happy to cover it with fabric so don't want to pay a fortune or mind what the cover is as long as it is quite sturdy.

It is so odd having the house to myself and I'm not sure I like it - be careful what you wish for and all that!

Just having a cuppa and then I'm going to make the soup and the a cake. I might start my bedroom after that or list a couple of bits on ebay.

Piggers I remember the picture of your bedroom and one of tiddles on top of a mountain of stuff.

Dusty - I know exactly the kind of album you mean as my Mum has got one with lots of different sized pics in it. In fact, someone made me one when DD was born so I could put a variety of pics in it. I will keep my eyes peeled.

I loved the pic of Tiddles on the indoor mountain too

toochoosey

Thanks for the kind words quillion and dusty. Not in the mood for any HHC but will do the odd bit in the ads of come dine with me.
Dinner was ok but still peckish. Think AF has a lot to do with it all xx

Good afternoon :beer:

Thanks to Dusty and lil_me for their good wishes to DD :A She's feeling much better - hurrah for penecillin :T We did have to postpone our camping trip, but have been invited out for supper. I've made some cranberry and orange brownies, and have a box of garden produce for the hosts
