Hex - not your week hun is it - fancy joining me in a glass of wine?
Kitchen rescued, floor hoovered and mopped, kids removed all their clutter, washed up, sink cleaned.
Builder has finished DS2 room (all bar a bit more filling to do tomorrow once today's is dry). Just going up to have a look. He has hoovered but dust is still settling an I need to wipe the sill and shelf. He is going to do as much as he can in the shower room tomorrow. I'm really struggling to find a paint colour for in there.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Having a bit of a catchup while decluttering a cuppa. I havent done any flying today except a load of washing tonight. It was my colleagues funeral this morning then have been at my voluntary job. Been to Mr As with DD tonight. She bought some flowers yesterday from there guaranteed to last a week. Most of them were dead this morning. She got her money back and another bunch of flowers.

I am so tired I can hardly move! But I must do some flying, not done any since Wednesday. Going to sort out a drawer in the small chest of drawers I keep papers and bits and bobs in, as it's a mess and I can't find anything. I need to make some space to put the magazines back in there, they've been living on the LR floor the last few days and it looks messy."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
