    Morning!! :wave:

    How are we all today? Bit of a later morning for me today. DH left for work at 5:30 and didn't told him if he gets me up then he might get a punch on the nose!

    Not so sunny down in Devon today :sad: grey sky and drizzle MoneySavingDiva - I'm right in Exeter, only about 2 1/2 miles outside the city centre

    Ishtar - put your feet up and relax, I find cleaning and tidying if you're feeling poo only makes its worse - especially if you're having sneezey nosey issues

    SarahShattered - Those boots are nothing short of beautiful, so beautiful I want to cry (but not before I stop drooling!) I :heartpuls them Hope you're day at work isn't too bad, but just think, work = Louboutin fund :D

    and finally Toots - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Hope you have a fab day and get spoilt rotten. Here's a cake I made for you: :bdaycake: it's yummy honestly!

    Plan for today to get me off the sofa, dressed and washed is:

    Wash up
    Shower
    Go to Mr A and check out £15 coats etc
    Clean spare room and quick tidy up
    Clean either bathroom or kitchen or both depending on how I feel later on

    I ordered a new pair of boots last night from ebay -rocket dog suede sugar daddy ones with a furry lining for £34.99 and free P+P. Hope they fit as they look nice.

    Couldn't quite justify the price of the fitflops ones this time round Dusty (I am coveting yours!) Maybe next time.

    Plus the skincare I have for sale on there with bids on has paid for £15 so far and I hope the rest sells to make up the other £20, might come in money neutral in a funny knid of way

    Feel completely numb today. Face looks better with the many layers of hydrating face mask yesterday and might try the same again tonight. Skin under my eyes is starting to peel. At least it doesn't feel sore so far today.

    Hope everyone else is ok today

  • Happy Birthday Toots! :bdaycake:

    Need to get cracking today: got people coming for dinner tomorrow, but have to do the cooking today. Have decided to abandon bedroom for this week, having made some progress (you can see the surfaces, for a start!), but will do a clean of the bathroom instead, hoping that this is tomorrow :D, because it is just starting to need a wipe-over.

    Porch etc is not yet on my radar, I'm afraid....

    First, though: that cooking! Have to leave by 2:00pm this afternoon for appts and school run, so not much time.

    Off for a couple of hours.... HHC when I return, to tackle the worst of the bathroom.

    Thifty so sorry to hear of the sad passing of your friend, hugs for all concerned

    DS1 appears to have man flu

    The Queen is sulking but her stitiches are mainly out, a couple are caught in the scabs so the vet thinks they will come out with the scab - if not I'll whip them out.

    Having a cuppa and finding my list before finishing my dailies and cracking on. Still not feeling great but that is not a reason for not doing the RofD as it is mainly sitting down sorting that needs doing.
