I just had to look in the mirror to check its me!

I fed the dogs, then went back upstairs to get my dressing gown. While in my room I opened the curtains, made the bed and bought the dirty cup downstairs :eek: All without thinking about it!! Yay!! :j

(sorry if that sounds a bit... well.. sad, but it is out of the ordainary for me )

Not at all sad!

I think the same when I put something away instead of dumping somewhere!

Mumof2 - hugs. Can you treat it as a positive step to improving things while there is time?

Thanks everyone for the hugs and support. We've had another chat and are both adamant that we want to work things out; we'll do whatever it takes. The main thing is we can communicate very effectively and both of us can say whatever we need to without the other one taking offence. I'm already feeling more positive than I was.

We'll just take things one step at a time.

Thank you - you lot are great :grouphug:

Morning all - we have sunshine here too. OH has just taken the pooch for a walk and has come back with some lovely photos of a Dear family nearby. Two adults and two fawns. We live on the very edge of the city and the fields are only a two minute walk away, but it is still unusual to see them. Perhaps a sign of good things to come.
While starting on the wardrobe in our BR I discovered an old single quilt hiding in the bottom, and as we are in the market for a bed for said pooch (GS) I also dug out an old cover (though I ask why I have it in the house - I just hoard the daftest of stuff) so he now has a nice comfy bed at no cost and it is easily washable too - result.

There is a dusting of snow here but the sky is clear so we may go through to York later.

Happy New Year

Morning everyone.

We have lots more snow here and its snowing heavily now. The cat has had me laughing as he has wanted to be out and in so many times. I dont think he has seen so much snow before. Im going to go and see mum this morning. Will get my walking gear on. Not much else planned for today except a bit flying.

Mumof2 Hugs. Its good that you can communicate with each other.
