    I have managed to do all but 1 thing on my own list and the painting and tiling is finished thanks to OH. I haven't even approached decluttering with him, he has worked so hard in the kitchen that he is as exhausted as me.

    On a MS point of view we had our lawnmower sorted for the grand total of £3 today, all ready for next year :D

    Hopefully I will manage to get a bit more done before Monday comes round again.

    Thanks tootles for your positive words.

    I am trying to harness some positive energy together and vibes for around 6pm. Trying to visualise what I want and pull the vibes together to get it.

    I cleaned the kitchen apart from the fridge (which I might do later if I feel better as I feel very shaky at the moment) and the floor which I will do tomorrow or Sat.

    I have lit yankee candles all around the house to cheer me up and make it smell nice

    I think OH is probably wondering what has happened, the house is spotless when he is working and I have done nothing this week but I am going to try and put a stop to that. He has no idea about flying or HHCs but that is what I am going to do. I am aiming to finish level 1 for each day and make a start on some of the others, especially as I have just looked at the list and have done level 1 of the other days but forgot.

    HHC 5.30-6 anyone?

    Just logged on to say Happy Birthday to Toots

    Dusty - Lots on hence not being around - helping a friend with a work problem, client with a tribunal pending (that IMHO they deserve to lose!) who wont pay me for months and months anyway, a big TUPE project at my part time job which will take me up to the christmas holidays with lots of travel to Welwyn GC involved, plus still pushing my bid through for Project Crocus.

    No cleaning or exercise done, so I had better do HHC 16-16.30 if anyone wants to join me?

    On the positive side DH has agreed that I need Fitflop boots as an anti chillblain measure after I tried some on at Grand Designs last week, just need to find them in my size in black :j.

    Oh please come visit me in your boots! You've no excuse if you are in town!

    Just wish we lived closer. DH and I are both big F1 fans and would love this but just too far to go :cry:

    Had a lovely lazy afternoon after doing all my flying this morning.

    Did the 20mile round trip to pick up hubbys prescription then sat down with a magazine, big cup of tea and did nothing else! Bliss!

    DH home late tonight so can cook quorn bolognease with out the looks of disgust. Suprising thing is though he always eats it even though quorn is "rank"!! Men eh?!
