Hi all,

I went home at lunchtime today and had reheated roast dinner from yesterday......it was yummy!

While I was home, I put a wash on and hoovered round the downstairs, decluttering the little ones rubbish/toys as I went!

One less thing to do when I get home!

See you all later x

I've tidied up the gap between the two armchairs and have moved armchair 2 into the gap so I can tidy underneath it at a later date.

I'm so tired! Exhausted! Phase two: behind tv and under armchair 2 will have to be done on Thurs

LR really needs hoovering but the hoover has been playing up lately and i just can't face it. That will be part of phase 2.

All thats left to be done today is to take out the paper to the recycling, and the rubbish. And wash up and do dinner

Upstairs finished, BR S&S'd. Stairs and the rest of upstairs hoovered.

A patch of Evostick permanent hold adhesive spotted on snug carpet, and on my lovely chesterfield sofa - right in the centre of the middle cushion so really obvious . Off to find some WD40 or something, and to plot acts of revenge on the guilty party :cool:.

List completed!!! Yes, you read correctly Monday's list is completed!!!!!!

Can I ask a quick question to all you dog owners....as you know, I have my lovely dog, stripes, who is now 18 months old and perfect in the house. The problem is her first walk of the day when she is nuts until she's run round the park for half an hour. Once she's had that run she's pretty good on the lead but due to my wrists being weaker than they should be due to breaking them etc it really hurts on that first walk. I've tried a harness, a halti, a half check, a normal lead, changing direction every time she pulls (we get no-where!), food, taking a different walk to the park so she's not anticipating it so much, i've tried dog training classes, i've tried not taking her to the park until later in the day but then she just pulls until the afternoon! I don't just mean pulling a bit either....she's actually pulled me in front of car today!! We love her to bits but I don't know what to do about this. My husband has sometimes walked her first thing and then she's a bit better but he works away Monday to Thursday most weeks so that's not always an option. I really don't want to have to drive her to the park plus I don't always have a car. Any ideas?

I've done practically nothing today except wash up, parcel up some ebay sales and go back to see the Dr who has signed me off for 2 weeks to recover from the stress I am going through as I burst into tears again when I was in there. Might not need to be off for all of that time, will see how I am at the weekend. Hope work is ok with this and will ring them tomorrow.

Seeing the ex yesterday and talking about 'things' when I took up his birthday present really upset me again. Trying to stay friends but I am finding it very difficult indeed.

Feel so low today that I can bearly be bothered to move. Need to drag myself up off the settee and do something.

Right will tidy out the blanket box again starting at 3pm and see what else I do

Hugs - TBH I think it's too soon to try and be friends with him - you need to distance yourself and then maybe in the future you'll be able to be friends again but being friends straight after a split just causes more heartache.

Well one half of DD's room is done - just need to do the other half now which is mainly piles of clothes that need putting away after she got them all out.
