  • Afternoon all. Sorry I haven't caught up with the thread but hugs to those who need them.

    Greenbee I did see about your labrynthitis, I had it just once and it was awful. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Hope you feel better soon.

    I spent this morning just having a general tidy up so I can get on with yeterday and todays lists properly. Shouldnt need to wash the outside of the front door. It's chucking it down here so will squirt stardrops on it and let the rain do the rest or is that cheating:rotfl:

    Just popping on before my bath to let you all know the result of my smear test - all normal :) I promise I won't leave it 11 years till the next one, I might not be so lucky next time.

    That was extremely quick in getting the results back... I've not heard anything back from the last 3 I had done so assumed they were ok.. I'd be deceased by now if they weren't, probably.

    I know I was expecting to wait at least 2 months, obviously they aren't busy LOL. Apparently you get the news either way by letter now, think it might be a new thing although not sure. Could be just a Kent thing..

    Anyway the next test is due near 20.05.2013, they will apparently send me an "invitation" - sounds like a party..lol

    Can't believe you haven't heard about your previous ones Piggers, do you normally have to ring up the surgery for results. But then as you say you would probably be deceased if it was bad news, or at least showing some signs.

    Ok thats the maiin living room done with things rearranged

    All hoovered and dusted
    window sills and skirtings wiped as well :D

    Clothes from TD folded and put in pile for sorting later.
    Just managed to catch the washing on the line before it chucked it down so that load is just finishing off in TD.
    Next load waiting an empty

    Right feel the need to go into town for something, not sure what but I'm sure i'll find it if I go :rotfl:

    They won't give results over the phone. They send out reminders here when they are next due too

    Amused us when they sent my mother one out.. she had a hysterectomy 20 years ago!!

    Tidied LR for 15 minutes and fed both boys. I'm just picking at DS2's leftovers - don't really fancy anything much, and that definitely isn't me. 2nd lot of towels folded and put away, WM and TD re-loaded.
    The heavy rain hasn't materialised yet, but it's drizzly and not very pleasant.

    QHC in the DR of doom next. I think I'm going to concentrate on the downstairs rooms today, and move upstairs tomorrow. Best get off the sofa, then.

    Very little done here, made something to eat and then slept for an hour.:D
    Feel abit more human now......Need to head into the town for a few things and then it will be time for kiddies to be lifted. Got more hangers today so the boys can help sort their clothes out.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
