    I just read it and went to report it and thanked it instead :eek:
    Anyway, Im back with another load of antibiotics and a confirmed case of mastitis :(
    how miserable is that when they haven't even been used yet. So thank you Pigpen for the advice and sooner rather than later. (just saw your post-Im in, time enough for a cuppa something first)
    Is there an HHC going anywhere? I have really bad heartburn again and no more gaviscon, so it might be slow going-but I want my star today as Im doing Sarymclary's meatballs tonight for supper.

    I am quite confused. I was rewriting my intro in a separate document, wrote 483 words compared to the original measly 190, imported it back into the original essay and seem to have written 572 words??? Nevermind the total is now in the 2000s and I am claiming the higher number so have about half left to go. My brain is fried so I am taking a break.

    I am good flylady:

    500ish words decluttered from my head
    2 loads of washing
    Chased some stuff up at work

    Just 500 more to write and a run to do

    the spam post (was 183) has now been deleted so, for some reason, the quote now appears to have come from a Juliejim post *shrug*.
