Ive found things really difficult the last few months as I had Brain surgery for the 2nd time in march and Im still suffering quite badly with vertigo and balance problems (tho the more moving about I do now, the better my brain will learn the new signals and hopefully my balance will get better....and I wont look and feel drunk all the time lol.;))
Hello and welcome from another newbie, dizzy. I'm sorry you're having such a tough time but I'm sure your Drs are looking after you - it's amazing what the can do, isn't it?
Thanks for the warm welcome, toottifrootti.

Flying my own route at the moment. A neighbour is doing a tip run for me tomorrow - mainly 'stuff' from the garage initially, but I am trying to be realistic/ruthless about what I can get rid of.
Great news, pigpen. :T
Welcome, notjustlaura. Hope the flying helps - we keep an eye on those with limits on what they can manage - so no overdoing it (the rest of us get fluffy mules flung for slacking
)
Jo, they really could not organise the proverbial.

Morning all,
a rare day at home today, without DS as he's still having a sleepover with grandparents, so I have plans to do the following
meet with new sale person - do formal handover
haircut pm (I look like a shaggy dog atm)
finish updating church accounts (90% there, just a bit of credit control, and a few emails to go)
Ironing mountain
more washing if weather clears
sort lounge (some new bits of furniture don't look right - needs a move about)
bits onto freegle
another trip to the tip (been once already today)
supermarket shop, with list of those odd things we need, after looking in kitchen cupboards first (spices, herbs, oil, those sort of bits)
buy DS's school trousers - look at a suits as well (we are at a wedding soon and current one is I think too short!)
start spot treating carpets downstairs - waiting on a good weather day before I steam wash them
Right best batter on,
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
