    Evening all

    Thanks to pigpen, toots & soappie as ever. Hugs to all who need them

    I'm in this week, but it's likely that most stuff will be left til the weekend as I expect to be tired first week back to work after my hols :D

    I did most of my list on the previous thread, lunches are done, bag sorted, I'm showered and clothes are out for the morning. Kitchen S&S and DH did all the washing up so we've got a relatively clean slate.

    froddy - i might well be around that day, I know DH wants to walk one sat but I'll try and make sure it's not that one. can i let you know/can you remind me?!

  • I'm glad it's not the kitchen tomorrow, I might actually finish the list for once :D.

    Well done to all the flyladies out there who have given the booze the boot. I tried a wine free evening in the week and had a carp nights sleep. (Not helped by the new hamsters discovering their very squeaky wheel at about 3am!!!)
    I have decided to cut down to one glass a night to begin with and then go for a couple of booze free nights after a week or so :o

    How is your friend with the tumour - healing thoughts, love and hugs for you both xx


    Ah well...about that -:o

    My friend is ok, just waiting for the appointments now, ta hun.

    I have a lampshade if its any use for you, I saw it on your list. Its a golden beige colour and threadlike. Hard to explain but can send it to you, let me know.


    I went to a carpet place today, picked one and man coming to measure up on tuesaday. Just wish I had the strength to do some furniture shifting as I'd get out front room done too.

    Mudbath, just wanted to add to all the thoughts heading your way, so pleased they're sorting your lad out in hospital, much healing and painfreeness.xxx
