    I may not be up to posting every day for a while, but as I am awake now I wanted to bring back the purple just for one day at least!! I do feel much better for being home and will be back to normal very soon. Just trying to recover from lack of sleep, a bit of blood loss and too much projectile vomiting (You have to laugh!!:rotfl::rotfl:).
    Lots of love to everyone, hope you all have a good day. With love, light and hugs.gif

    Morning all
    special thoughts for Diva, Toots and Lady Liberty - hope you all have some of this lovely weather I'm enjoying here in Valliland.

    I will let the sofas go to the tip in the trailer - I don't want some 'enterprising' teenagers hauling them into the country park for a bonfire ;) or a den ;)

    am up, bathed, bed made, pots washed dried and away :eek: and washing about to go on line then some planning to do.

    [Feeling brave]

    I wonder:

    How many children you would have, Piggers, if you didn't spend so much time on MSE?

    *Question*
    On a new plastered room should i buy sealent before i paint or should i water down the paint?

    Sealant is basically PVA glue.. so.. buy a tub of PVA.. water it down to at least 50/50 and use that to paint the walls first!!.. it needs to be left a good 3 hours (and I am an expert! :p) before putting real paint on..

    That was a bit better. Thanks for joining, sexy and jue (and AnW'sMum).

    TD, DW and WM on. Hoovered downstairs. Knocked a few jobs of LR list. Drafted a rough plan for the rest of the week. Closed all the windows. Collected laundry (apart from DS1's who can bring his own down). Collected some rubbish from various rooms. Made our bed. Think that was it... Breakfast now, then another HHC in a bit.

    Morning everyone.

    A bit cooler here today and fine drizzle. Dailies are done and Im ready to go out. At my voluntary job for a little while before we go out for coffee and cake.

    Could I please have some healing vibes for my DB and SIL. They are both quite poorly with a virus and had to get doc for DB last night. Wish they lived nearer.

    Toots/Helenjelly Thanks I will enjoy it.
    Mumto5 Big hugs.
    Diva Lovely to see you posting.

    Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.
