Much the same hereIt's grey, cold and windy here today. I've put off anything much for way too long now, so will really need to get my bum in gear. See you all later. x
Do you think it might have anything to do with someone getting out her garden parasol ???
Another one who needs to shift bahookie. Part of me wants to try and reorganise my kitchen, but things always seem to end up in the same place.
And I now need to find things to put at the back of the top shelves because I can't reach that far now (I've only lost one inch!)0 -

sun's supposed to be shining here too, and it isn't - she has amazing influence, that someone
If it makes you feel any better, crafty, I have a stepladder in my kitchen because I cannot reach most of my top shelves. I also keep the step I had for the kids so I can reach into my landing cupboard properly.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Thought about talking DS2 for a walk later, but it really is miserably cold and I need to make sure that I do a bit of everything this weekend, rather than starting next week ill-prepared and tired. My cold and AF are still around, so
I really need to make some changes to my lifestyle. I seem to spend most weeks not feeling 100% (still not seen my friend's daughter's twins, even though they are 12 weeks old now) and have little energy. I shouldn't feel like this at my age, and it is getting worse rather than better. Diet and exercise have to be pretty much at the top of the list, as well as drinking water. If I make time to eat and drink properly, it should pay off in extra energy for exercising. For the moment the exercise will have to come from flying and walking, though.
:jI've finally finished decluttering the hotspot by the front door. The only things left on there are things which will need to leave the house in the next few days (on the lower shelf) and my two ornaments (on the top shelf). Both shelves and ornaments have been dusted.
Next: start DW, then lunch.0 -

Sorry, i'll behave myself now, hope you have a great time. Did you get the £5 tickets that were on offer or did you have them already??
I've had the ticket since November! I know 2 others people who have been over the last week or so and they both said they were fab! Apparently, they play for about 3 hours.
I'll wave at Ritchie for you
BTW, congrats on the exam results :TFrodders.. I have some hungry cats should you get desperate..

Since my last visit here, I have done ALL the lists, OH has got out of bed and hoovered the whole house :j:j:j
I have also cleaned my car inside and outside, it looks so much better.
Sexy~~ I will have a hunt around for a tier cake stand, have you tried your local freecycle site?? maybe other freecyclers on here could ask on thier local sites and lets see what turns up.
I would try again with your mother and MIL etc to get them involved in your wedding, if they are really not that interested, us flyladies will be stand ins :j:T for them, we are interested, and you can run your ideas / purchases etc by us, you might need another thread for that or we might get our bums kicked by the BG!!! :rotfl::rotfl:
I've sent you a pm, I've been messing aorund on google '3 tier cake stand, cup cake stand for hire west Sussex' and it has come up with loads of site to what I think are local to you.

OH has now gone out on his bike, lets hope he is in a better mood when he gets back, all he keep muttering about is holidays, when I ask him what he is on about, I don't get an answer, to my knowledge we have not yet discussed holidays for this year yet...
