    - Ive been feeling rather down last few days ( Im trying to get over PND )

    Anyway I have still done nothing this week( just one HHC) and my house is creeping bk into mess. Its making me:o feel worse and I really need a kick up the !!!! to get me going- I would like to get all this weeks level ones done today.. My house looked lovely 1st week I did this- couldnt believe it. Sounds stupid but I feel so much better when the house is reasonable.. was actually enjoying clearing up( saddo I know) I just need the motivation to get going..


    Hi princess, I hope you start to feel better soon. PND is a horriible thing to deal with. Mine was donkeys' years ago bt I still remeber how awful I felt. Please don't beat yourself up abut it or the state of the house. Just start gently on level one and when you can tick off a few things you will feel abit better about it. Hugs and more hugs.

    Tooch I hope your family are feeling better soon.

    L-L Hi, hope today is a good one for you.

    rosepink and others, thanks for asking about DH He has made up beds for DSs coming home for the b'day and has agreed to go out for a meal tomorrow Methinks he is hankering after moving back South. We have been here 15 years and it took me years to settle. I can't bear the thought of moving away now.

    I am hoping having everyone here for the weekend will shake him up a bit, in a nice way.

  • Well, I stopped studying at 11:45 to go and get a drink - and realised when I moved how COLD I was. So I had lunch instead (half a bowl of left-over stew, piping hot....) and then decided to move for a while doing some cleaning to finish off Thursday's list. Nice and warm now!
