    2. Meeting a friend at the fete so catching up over a coffee while our DD's amused themselves (checked out the boys)
    3. DD ironing her own school uniform
    4. Small BBQ for OH, DD and me. DD eating lots of fish and didn't want sausages and burgers as she usually would

    wssla00 I hope the consultant can sort out your stroppy teenager lungs.

    Here is what I can manage for today.

    1. took my leaking legs to the doctor and managed to negociate a program of Frusimide to get some mobility back.

    2. Faulty refurbished notebook picked up by DHL for returning and full refund (hubby promised me a trip to pc world when the refund hits the bank.

    3. our local chemist was as helpful as ever (they are little darlings) and ordered in a pill splitter for me - left my old one in hospital.

    4. Alll the rhubarb seed hubby planted has germinated and grown - rhubarb plants now coming out of our ears.

    5. excess sand from the new patio now bagged up so my car is now able to get to the top of the drive and away from under the hawthorn tree. DD promissed to clean it tommorow

    6. Lots of lovely fruit and veg got from morrisons and managed to stick to shopping list - a very rare event!

    7. Just started raining - I hope it jets heavier as the garden needs it.

    Just off to do my nebuliser so will be back later for a wander and catch up

    Only a brief visit tonight, hopefully will pop back later properly. But here's mine for today so far:

    1. Got LOTS of overdue paperwork done this morning, was dreading one particular query about an incorrect invoice, but it all went smoothly. Why do I always worry unnecessarily about silly things?!!

    2. Joined the flylady thread and had a very productive day cleaning and sorting. Got so much more done with the inspiration from the thread.

    3. Enjoyed gammon carbonara for tea.

    4. Going to watch Going Postal later-OH said he watched it last night and it was so good he will watch it again with me.

    5. (From yesterday) the kids absolutely loved catching up with their friends on Sunday and I am very grateful to their dad for making it possible. They hadn't seen friends for 6 months but instantly clicked again. Their dad made them roast lunch and apple pie so they came home very happy, and very full!

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    A very late one but here's my 5

    1. Went to pulm rehab class this morning, there's a little improvement in my movements every week :j (well, not quite that much!)
    2.DD and I went out for lunch and I promptly put on any calories I may have taken off this morning, but a Toby carvery is excellent value for our monthly treat :D
    3. DD needed to get some equipment for the football team she's started up at her pub, so I browsed while I waited and found a tee shirt ideal for DS. They're in their 20's and 30's now but if I buy lunch for one the other still has to have something too..mustn't favour one more than the other :laugh:
    4. The rain came just at the right time again to save me watering, and filled the butt up.
    5. I was offred a lift to my fellowship meeting this evening, first time ever :eek:. I've spent the past 5 years giving other people a lift so it was a very nice surprise - and saved my petrol ;)

    Night night, sweet dreams
