    Rosepink, do you make bras ?
    Everytime I read one of your posts there seems to be a mention of sewing bras....starting to think of you as a bra lady lol!
    Anyway, hope you are doing ok, and sorry if you think me cheeky asking you :o.
    Right off to more knitting (which is work really lol!)
    x
    LOL, no I don't make them - the underwires came out of 3 of my bras and kept poking me in tender places so I ended up just with one bra to wear. Well, it needed washing, so I've had to get on with sewing up the little holes the underwire was sticking out of.

    In my HHC, I:
    started the WM,
    put away my floordrobe
    listed one item on ebay,
    looked for the bluetooth dongle so I can upload pics from my mob (I'd put it on the table foolishly and it got buried)
    dug out 3 pairs of shoes to sell
    put a plastic bag on the bed so I can do a binbag dance in my next HHC

    the result is that my bedroom looks more messy than when I started!

    Going to have a rest now

    How did you get on AJ and Holly? eta: cross posted with you! well done on all your hard work

    Welcome Gemma, you are in good company, lots of us have men who won’t help around the house – mine is good and will do things if he feels like it but then he won’t do things like take his plate into the kitchen or tidy up his things! Hope you find it helps being on here, I really find it very helpful

    Cool, I think it's really good for young men to do jobs like that, hard work outside is very healthy! Hope he enjoys it, is he thinking of doing something like that for a job when he leaves school?

    He's not sure what he wants to do; he has just started Year 11 and will then do A Levels so it is a long way off. He loves sport and also weather and geography. He is really not an indoors person so an office environment would not suit at all. He has his part time referring job which he loves too.

    I've finished my dailies and sorted the stationery drawer. I really want to get the family room finished but the sorting is so boring. Just had a little snack using up left overs from the fridge so I'm going to do HH sorting out paperwork next.

    I will get the family room done, I will get the family room done (this week!)

    ooh, greenbee are you coming to visit??

    Where are you? If it's not too far (I'm near Bigbury) you might get a visitor!
    AnW'sMum - it has been awful here. Greenbee turned us all into smurfs!

    Excuse me?? No time to change my smurf back today... I'll do it soon though...

    Just skimmed through... I'm in Devon. It's foggy, but have hobbled down to the quay, stood in the water and come back to the house! Not sure what we'll do today, but once the weather improves I plan on spending most of the time on the water.

    Have fun everyone!!
