  • Evening everyone!

    Hope everyone is ok, hugs to those that need them and sorry that I missed all of last week but spent the entire week in hospital flat on my back for most of the week. Anyway will be off work for 3 weeks until next Neuro appointment when test results will be back so I will join in and between my DD and I will try and do as much as we can.

    I have to say that the house is even worse mess than before so it will take a conserted effort. I really need to do some serious ebaying as I need to make an extra mortgage payment.

    Right now I can't do anything tonight as I have a raging headache and pain in back/hip and ankle.... so time for feet up and a bit of telly time. will start in the morning.

    I too wish fantastically light healing vibes to Lady-L, Diva and Toots

    Does it look like some of this plight regarding the other person is fabricated then?

    Munchausen's by Internet...

    Well today was the first real Spring like day, just gorgeous, saw my first butterfly in the garden :)

    Not much flying done as we picked up the car and I went round to see my friend who's having a rough time ( split up with her partner, they have two kids.)

    Many years ago I went on a camping holiday with my local Quaker Meeting. There was a lady there who I later discovered had Munchausen's ( we were all involved with caring for her, believing her to have leukemia) it's a very difficult disorder for everyone concerned.

    Tuesday's list:
    Tuesday ~ Living/family areas.
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Clear and vacuum floors
    Clear and vacuum sofas.. wipe away any sticky grubby marks
    [/STRIKE]
    Level Two
    Dust and deweb.. shine any glass/mirrors/electricals
    Clear mantel and only put back what it meant to be there
    Binbag dance
    Level Three
    [STRIKE]Vacuum under furniture you can move safely
    Wipe and water plants.. fling dead ones!
    [/STRIKE]
    Sort out ALL the paperwork strewn about.. put it all in a heap and work through it!


    Extras

    2. Sort out one drawer/cupboard

    Will be away tomorrow in Essex visiting my sister, so hopefully will catch up Thursday.
