    Well my HHC of rest in total has been about an hour and a half. I was feeling better but think I am spiralling back down to rubbishiness again, I think because I need to go out to pick OH up from work soon.

  • Have only read the last couple of posts as we've had a busy couple of days. We had a lovely day out yesterday with my mum and dad and the girls at Chatsworth House. They had a good run round on the adventure playground and enjoyed making Halloween masks. Then today we've been swimming with some friends then to IL's for lunch. DD2 has been thrown in bed for an hour and DD1 is having a quiet time.

    Before I post my list.....

  • Well my little wander to go and get the paper was not worth it. Useful jobs = 0 :mad: Still, at least I got a little bit of exercise on the walk.

    Just taken my towels off the line and they are almost dry so going in the TD for a few mins to fluff them up and finish them off. It may have taken most of the day, but would rather have them outside drying then cluttering up spare room (aka it has no home lets put in here room)

    Some lovely smells coming from my SC. Soup stuff has been in for 4 hours now, and reckon another 60-90 mins and its ready for blitzing. Only got a small food processor that I do it in, and really wanting one of those stick handheld ones, but don't know if I can justify the expense. Can anyone recommend a good cheap one?

    PigPen - really pleased about them sorting out your money, you must be so happy!
