Hi everyone, how are you all, on this gorgeous sunny day!

Well i'm now officially a total invalid grrrr :mad:.
Burnt my hand about four days, did the usual cold water etc. All was good no blisters nothing just a minuscule red mark..Today woke up and my whole right hand is one big blister, no explanation, no reason. Its so painful and disgusting even the doctor in A & E freaked out when he saw it.
So i now have one injured left knee and a bandaged up right hand. Its so annoying, they had to pop and take away all the blistered skin as the doc didn't know if it was a burn or an allergy. So now have to high dosage antibiotics just on case and yellow puss coming out of my hand.Have to get my dressing changed on Monday. So nice and healthy looking..

Evening all

Many thanks again for the hugs and thoughts for all three of us. Soappie I didn't realise it was a silk anniversary, am loving the cushion idea I see you have taken it easy today well done on decorating the bathroom.

We went to Stainsby Mill and Hardwick Hall gardens this afternoon. Took Mum and Dad with us and bumped into my sis and her gang! Kids did the quiz at the watermill and enjoyed running round the gardens.

Just had chinese whilst watching Dorothy part 1. Miss A has showered, W is in as I type! They will watch part 2 and then bed.

Kezlou that burn sounds very painful I hope it heals quickly.

Special hugs for you sweetie, you have brought a tear to my eye. It was you I was thinking about most when I made my post;) I think of you whenever there is a load of OH/DH/EH complaining going on and wonder what you feel. You are so brave and never pull people into line. I hope tomorrow isn't too painful for you and know for sure I'll be thining of you.

AnW'sMum ditto ditto ditto what Dusty wrote - she worded that beautifully xx I hope you find a good film and i will speak to you at some point! xxxxx

Am digging. Furiously. Bl**dy builder's gone bust and appears to have taken 1500 of my best English pounds with him. :mad::mad::mad::mad:
I've got scaffolding, and expensive storage unit full of my furniture and no prospect of getting anything built. ANd windows that leak every time it rains.

Gutted.:(:(:(:(

awh huge (((hugs))) honey -what about doing a thread for some advice? Do you have any DIY friends who could help out - if the scaffolding is his then you could use it then sell it to recoup some money?

boddy thank goodness its not as bad as it could have been - what a good lad phoning the lady and apologising.
soappie well done with the decorating:T
kezlou (((hugs))) that sounds really painful and nasty - hope it heals now
pigpen get the adolescents to do the scrubbing!
embb thanks for giving tooch the link xx

had a lovely day but got sunburnt - was trying to be careful and had cream on but must have been patchy as I have burnt bits and ordinary bits:rotfl: hopefully I will sleep - although my ears are 'burning' or maybe thats just someone talking about me:rotfl:

all this talk of cleaning out sheds has put me in a mind to do mine - wonder if i could get it done tomorrow after church
lets see if I can work it in
1pm home from church
eat
go to town to change t-shirts and get bits I need
4pm the cleaner is coming to tidy up
6.00 tea time
wwatch for new thread


Hmm that gives me a [STRIKE]couple of hours [/STRIKE] an hour and a half before the cleaner arrives and I still have my bag to pack (but the cleaner is going to help with that) maybe I should go start now!!!!:rotfl::rotfl:
toots xx

I replied to a Freecycler who asked for a shed and she is coming to collect the one the rats have moved into tomorrow!

That's great and means only one more to get rid of which is rotting away merrily day by day.

Hope all 4 things get collected tomorrow and 4 things to the tip and some more space created!
