Morning Everyone

I'm awake so thought I would pop in & say a huge thanks to you all for your continued love & support......the Oncologist visit didn't give me the news I was hoping for, so it's taking a while to get my head around it.....but I will "brush myself off" & carry on as soon as I can

Massive love & thanks to Diva, Jinks , FFP & Sexy :A for always being there for me.....couldn't get through it without you guys

Love & hugs to you all as appropriate xx

SarahS lovely to see you Sweetie xx

Morning all

Woke up early after my early night and am planning a lazy, pj day today. will do some sorting and perhaps take the bags of stuff over to the charity bin across the road though DH might do that later for me. The bathroom also needs dysoning so must try and do that. We are also going away tomorrow so I will try and pack.

I think I need a little job list (from my big handwritten list for this week):

dyson bathroom
S&S bathroom
sort through tools
sort through blue spare room drawers
book train for hen weekend in April
look at trains for poss trip north in may
sort freecycle collection
pack for weekend away
water plants

freecycle thing is a bit of a mess now - the initial lady has now replied and said the email was in her spam and she wants me to phone her about collecting the thing. The second woman I offered it to hasn't come back yet...Aaahhh - advice please!!

Morning campers, just a small update from me as we are heading out to the Imperial War Museum shortly. Well I say shortly, that is once I have had my bath and finished tarting myself up..lol Didn't think I would get a lot done this week as DH is off all this week but I surprised myself, and him..lol

I had to completely gut my bedroom as DH decided to buy a new t.v. for the bedroom - well our existing one was 23 years old (we had bought it when we first got together all those moons ago!) and surprisingly it was still going strong. Anyway I kept mentioning I wanted a combined t.v with the DVD player so we went and got one while we were at Lakeside and Thurrock Retail Park the other day But then obviously that meant I had to change the bedroom around as I couldn't put the tv and cable box where they were originally - on top of a dead hifi that had been waiting to be chucked out since the year dot! Well the good news is that I have a completly clutter free bedroom and have rearranged the furniture and the room looks so huge now. Even DH was amazed at how big the room actually was. The only complaint I have had is from Bear as he doesn't like where I put his dog bed now. Oh well he will get used to it or a cat will use it..lol

Oooh just checking the lists didn't realise how much I had actually done without thinking about it.. I even did the bathroom the other day and didn't flinch over it..wow!!

Soappie could I please have two stars when you have a moment please,thank you honey xx

Thanks P-P and L-L - I have done what Penny suggested and told the 2nd woman I need to know by 1230 if she wants it and she needs to come today. I remember now why I didn't sign up to freecycle when I moved here as it can be a hassle when working full time!
