    Hex hope your headache eases and thanks for the facebook tip.

    Just going to pack the trust stuff away
    Do 15 minutes dusting and then 20 minutes watering (two of three butts now empty)
    before school run.

    Taking DS3's dressings off after school and a wee bit worried that they have left stitches in one of the wounds - that will not be funny and will freak out grotbags.

    Hi all
    Hope everyone is well? Sending hugs to anyone who needs one....

    I've done some of the lists, but I have also been picking up odd jobs here and there - today's were to sort the airing cupboard and to mop the kitchen and living room floors.

    Here's what I've been doing from 2the lists....if it's gone, I've done it:


    Monday
    ~ Kitchen and Dining room
    Level One
    Clear and wipe work surfaces
    Level Two
    Wipe units and large appliances
    Give one small appliance a good clean!
    Level Three
    Descale irons, kettles, coffee makers etc
    Clean through the pan cupboard and sort those plastic tubs!

    Tuesday - Sitting Room and Hallway
    Level One
    Level Two
    Clean any glass.. pictures, windows, mirrors etc
    Level Three
    HHC in the hallway.. sort those coats and shoes and mess!! Can you wash and put away winter ones yet?

    Wednesday - Bedroom of Duvet-nia & Landing of Loveliness
    Level One
    Level Two
    Level Three
    Vacuum the landing and bedroom.. starting at the bottom of the stairs!!!!
    Remove anything that should be elsewhere and all the hotspots!!!

    Remove some dust bunnies and wipe over the light shades

    Dailies have mostly been done, too. DS has woken up from his nap and is incredibly grumpy - next door's children are off school today and were making a huge row outside the bedroom window. I think he's just woken up before he was ready (even though he'd had a two hour nap...*rolleyes*)

    I'll be off in a minute to collect DD from school - hope she's in a good mood....

    Take care
    D

  • Hi all,

    Just posting on behalf of LadyL.. The hospital rang at 1330, just before she was leaving for her appt to say that the scanner was broken so they had to cancel. They have asked her to go in tomorrow but with no guarantee that the scanner will be fixed so that might be cancelled too!!

    LadyL is understandably upset after mentally preparing herself for today so asked me to say a big thank you for all the positive vibes here and on Facebook and that if you didn't mind sending them again at 0900 tomorrow she would be grateful.

    She sends her love to all of you and will post on FB and here when she is feeling stronger.

    To be frugal, you need to spend money wisely, simply spending less is not enough.
    If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best...
    Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I will try again tomorrow.

    Diva I'm assuming you'll be in contact with LadyL before tomorrow; please tell her that Wolfy vibes will be coming her way.

    It's so maddening when the hossy cancel at the last minute, just when you're psyched up for it.:(

    Oh..... fwiw, I'm not of FB at all. Too scared of KH (thanks for that description of 'em Piggers LOL) finding out where I am.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
