  • Good morning everyone. Am going to flit between kids rooms and bathroom today and hope to at least make a dent. Got an incentive today because DH is off to the Grand Prix on sunday so his mate is sleeping here saturday night. Him and his wife have 1 child and earn £120,000 a year between them so their house is a show house.
    He will probably leave here with typhoid or something:rotfl:

    Natty You are right the support on here is great and it's nice to be able to talk about gibble and HHC's without people looking at you like you are deranged:D

    Speaking of that HHC at 11.45 anyone.

    Morning flyers
    So far today I have decluttered both DS's and neice t the swimming so that I could tidy up. Made the beds, washed upthe supper and breakfast dishes, took my meds and fed/watered the dog.
    Since I was on a roll yesterday I ventured down to the club house with the kids last night only stayed for about 15 minutes but that's a huge amount of time for me.

    FFP have a great time in the caravan - please don't get too overheated in there though. Well done on taking doggy out for a walk to the beach, I bet he enjoyed it thoroughly connie_08.gif

    Mr Mac hates a bath but loves swimming in the sea. I'll take him again later. No chance of getting over heated it's been realy windy here although not cold.

    Thursday ~ Bedroom & Landing All Done

    Got a txt at 6.30 this morning from my SIL to say they were coming down after all. My DB said he was feeling much better. Im pleased as they were so dissapointed thinking they wouldnt get. He will see cousins he has not seen for 40 years. They are just North of Edinburgh and say its pouring but its sunny here.

    Im just about to start the bathroom and a quick S&S elsewhere. Must remember to charge my camera. Washer just finished so will get that lot hung out.

    Winchelsea Hugs.
    vanilla. Glad to hear your sister has got a house.
    Mudbath Well done on the weight loss.

    Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.


  • I'm going to do the living room tomorrow before his mate comes and just hope he doesn't need to go in the dining room:o:rotfl:


    Off we go then toots x

    Hello all.


    As I surmised, it's bathroom day today. Nice day for drying bath mats, too, so they're in the machine as I type. PC stuff tends to get done on lounge day, as we don't have a separate study, but it's good to have some specific PC tasks, so that I can make sure it's all done properly.:o

    Winchelsea well done on getting some flying done, after your busy day. I hope the care home close to you is a lovely one. Good idea on freezing the bread in helping-sized packs. Like Toots says, make sure to take care of you as well as everything else.:o

    Oooh where is everyone? Is there something happening I don't know, as I'm first this morning and I'm never first....lol
    Sorry, but if you're going to get online that early......:D I rarely switch the 'puter on before 11:00; once Mr LW has left for work (07:30) that's me out for the count for at least a couple of hours.:( Still trying to find a solution to that problem.:(

    Vanilla great news that your sister has got the house – not long til 20th!:T

    Toots gosh, it doesn't seem five minutes since your last visit to the hossy. Now you will take it steady rearranging the LR, won't you? I don't want to have to come and smack your bum for doing too much.:o

    Does decluttering the inbox count as flying :)
    Imho, yes! Well it's still decluttering, even if only cyber-decluttering, yes?*insert shruggy smilie* Oh, can I be cheeky and ask what Spike is, precisely? (Fur-baby lover here):o

    Ah, maybe they were talking about me.... I think I'm going into another real flare just now......:(


    OK, onwards and upwards.... my joints all hurt today, so I think I might do a little gentle Yoga on the Wii, see if I can get them moving.:o Then, joy of joys, scrub the loo. I may be some time.......:cool:
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
