    Morning all
    Glad to hear the visualisation went well. I hope the energy is doing it's work.

    Pleased to see it's the living room today as I completed most of the list yesterday. No excuses for slacking, though, as about a year ago :whistle:our soil stack leaked and the wall still needs papering following the repair. I'll tackle that this morning when DS is down for his nap (ha ha, what nap...he seems to be dropping them).

    Hope everyone has a good day - OH is rallying well now and is going to work from home at least for today, possibly tomorrow.

    Loads of hugs for anyone who needs/wants one!
    Take care

    Morning all

    Am off out this morning but will fly this afternoon, I promise. I never did get round to doing my bedroom yesterday, I will do it and the living room today.

    Hope all the poorlies are feeling less poorly and can cope
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
  • A day late, but I can join in please? Just been made redundant so have time to spend doing .... oh, the cleaning, fabby ... ;)

    Can sympathise with you trinity and also with Louboutingirl, I was made redundant on 2 October and finding it a bit difficult to tackle the house with many boxes cluttering up various rooms.. I was with the company for 15 years, and still feel very strange not working :rolleyes: Nothing else on the horizon for the mo, and I am sure that doing physical things like cleaning will be good for peace of mind also. Decluttering is the main thing for me, and then clean the bit that's been freed up (that sounds so sad).

    Anyway, we'll get there!

  • Morning everyone. Not been around here much this week...DD2 has possibly had swine flu although she's much better now and DH's company want him to work from home for a few days as a precaution so he's been hogging the laptop.

  • Hi everyone!

    I'm still having trouble with my Broadband at home - am grabbing a connection elsewhere so I can check my mail and post briefly on here so you don't think I snuck away quietly into the sunset while noone was watching....

    I see that today is the sitting room! Hooray! I did it yesterday *in no time at all* following the visit from the chimney sweep on Monday, so I think I'll be able to cross that off (just a bit of paintwork to wipe).

    Jobs for today:
    * Get the Broadband running! (Went last night to PCW**ld and bought a new router as BT swear it's not the line ... after saying that it was... :rolleyes:)
    * Finish off the kitchen and the Sitting Room so I can collect STARS :j
    * Make a start on the Bedroom of Doom (mine....:o... DD's is not cleanable at present)
    * Do some more gardening because it's lovely out there...

    Hope to catch you later once I'm back home and have restored my connection

    Love to all, and sorry - no time to catch up ...except I saw your post, Mudbath and was incensed!!!! Ask your doctor for a second opinion.
