    DH reckons we only changed the bed at the weekend so said not to bother! I'm not gonna argue at the moment but I do need to dyson and dust. Dyson needs emptying first though. Everywhere is a bit dusty and crumby, guess it's worse as I've been home!

    I also need to walk down to the coop as we have £12 in vouchers to use so may as well get some wine for Sat night when friends are coming for footie & food...not that I'll get to enjoy the wine of course!

    Starting to get a bit bored at home now, must be a good sign, although I am shattered and still need sleep!

    Pigpen - I can't believe your daughter had to do soaps/dating stuff...that's crazy! At risk of having a mule thrown at me - How are you doing?

    I'm whinging today lol... too hot, too tired, too fat.. etc etc..

    I am thinking this baby is maybe a bad idea.. I am much too old for the hassle and stress of it.

    Other than the constant cramping I've had since the accident on Monday I'm fine thank you.. :D

    I have spent most of the morning on the phone trying to sort out the issues with internet and phone...result me on my hands and knees unscrewing sockets and 'testing' lines....I thought engineers did this...cutbacks already.

    Anyway general consensus is that it's 'their' issue so they are heading to the exchange with the engineers and hopefully it'll be sorted.

    Whilst I was stuck an unable to to any 'work' recording I managed to
    dw x 1
    wm x 1
    td x 1

    swept floor

    scrape plates

    empty bin

    Off for a coffee and a sort out of my most pressing jobs.

    Piggers think we should cancel hun, I don't feel 100%...more 75% really and you sound like it may be too much to do...try to rest if you can hun. xxx

    I'm going to start my emergency antibiotic regime again...I don't think I'm on a relapse...but I'm not myself at all...ah well.:o
