wilf, embb :eek: slow down I'm tired just reading what you have been doing :rotfl:

Have managed to faff the morning away - most of it on tinternet :mad:. However have just been to shop for milk and bread etc. so need to do something constructive (must study this afternoon)
Hi toots - glad you had a good day yesterday.

Morning all (just!)

I've had a very lazy morning, stayed in bed reading my book, bliss. It's a Jodi Picoult called 'change of heart', took a bit of getting into but I'm gripped now!

Hope everyone is ok, I've not been on since Thursday night. Last night was a leaving do - the last of the four of us who started my old job project at the same time - since I left in July they've lost all 4 london project staff! You'd hope (in vain sadly) that the organisation might start to wonder why....

I need to do some flying today, first up is finding a list, then I will shower before we go for lunch.

embb

I'm on one crafty and when I'm on one there's just no stopping me, doesn't happen often but I get loads done when it does. I'm ruthless too, poor Lily daren't sit still, though she was hilarious earlier, always front row under my feet and she emerged from under the stairs with cobwebs dangling off her whiskers, I didn't tell her I just laughed mockingly.... she thinks she's so mint too

Dinners up :j

Hello everyone,

I haven't managed to catch up with the thread so I hope everyone is OK. It moves so quickly! I came on for a bit of inspiration and motivation and having read the last couple of posts I feel ready to fling myself into the rest of the day!:rotfl:

My plan for today is to re-spray the hen house with more insecticide to hopefully finish the red mite off and get rid of them totally, and then tackle upstairs. I have friends coming to stay next weekend and it would be so good if I could have the house tidy by then, instead of frantically hoovering the bedroom as they are arriving, and getting them to help me change the bedding!

I've already walked the dogs and had a lovely chinwag with my neighbour - some things are more important than housework! Will just go and hang the washing to dry before I venture out into chicken land. To my horror I found red mites in the laundry bag this morning - they must have got on my clothes when I gave the hen house a really good 'do' on Wednesday. :eek::eek::eek: Hopefully the bu**ers will have drowned by now as the laundry bags are in the WM too. SHUDDER! The hens are a lot happier though, so I am happier:T

I have girded my loins with a cup of tea whilst typing this post so I am ready to start. Have a good day, everyone!

embb

gandb I hope your little one is one the mend. Hugs for you both.

boddy What a horrible thing to happen to your GS. I hope he does go to the police about it and that he is feeling better soon. I am starting to be worried for my DS3 who now lives in the NE. Each day there seems to be news of an incident over there.

Hi toots. I am glad you had a lovely day at your brothers now try and rest.

I am sorry for not replying to everyone, but I seem to have only half a brain today. I have stronger meds from GP, which have slowed me right down to a snail's pace.

I have a ham shank in the pressure cooker. Brocolli plants outside. STILL NOT planted out.

And soon I am going to get a lift to BandQ for their 15%off sale.

WM on. TD emptied. Clothes sorted and in correct rooms.

Cats, dogs, hens, fed and watered. One solitary egg today!! Naughty girls are hiding them again.

Old dog is still plodding on. Not long to go now though. New meds and consultation cost me £104!! Not very MSE, I know.
