  • Sorry to hear your news quillion, although it would seem a positive step for you XXXX

    Havent done much today, but have got on with a couple of niggly outstanding things - putting up some pictures and a new wall note thing - both of which look great so I am really pleased. Have also made sure to keep things tidy - have put stuff away as they have been used and done the dailies. So a positive week all in all.

    Have a good weekend - lilo

  • Morning all. Just having a reviving cup of tea, then I'm going to see if I can get more sleep :) Had a lovely evening out with friends, and managed not to drink too much :beer: Just had a chat with DH, so feel better for that.

    DD enjoyed the festival in pigpen&Triker-land, with her friends :j

    I'm going to dig some veg to make a slow roast belly of pork, with roasted roots. HG apple crumble for pud. In a controversial move, we're eating at midday (DD is working this evening, from 5pm, and I'm out with other friends to a scarecrow festival). It then means I don;t have to rush home to cook :T

    Going to check my list, and see you all later :A

    Hugs to Quillion can't be easy..
    Penpen hope you managed to get back to sleep :)

    not too much to do round here apart from dailies (hurrah!) so am planning some time in the garden. Chicken casserole already cooked for lunch. DH & my dad are going karting this afternoon, it's the first time Dad has been & he's hugely competitive, so it could be fun! :D I tried driving the car yesterday .. Bit weak & feeble on the gear stick. Short journeys only for the coming week, but oh it's good to be driving again!!

    Hugs/spoons as appropriate - help yourself!

    Onestep

    Morning all, just lost my post, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
    So sorry to read your news Quilliion, hope you achieve all your plans, HUGS and prayers.
    Although there's so much clutter here that it will take weeks to clear it all. However, the improvement is plain to see so THANKYOU LADIES:) DH has been enthused to start decorating because of the improvements and decluttering.
    DS and family are coming to stay in a couple of weeks so that is another incentive to keep up the momentum.
    Must pick beans and dig potatoes after church. Will be having beef and hm Yorkshire pudding for dinner with DD1 and her family.
    This is working and HHdeclutterings plus dabbles at level 1 are making me less stressed so thanks again.
    Hugs to all in need, have a Happy Sunday, cheers m'dears x

    Morning all, i'm cream crackered today. We had a movie night last night but hubby couldn't sleep so 3 movies later we went to bed.:eek:
    I think that was about 3 this morning then Rhys got up a few times and when hubby's alarm went of at 7 this morning he couldn't find his phone to turn it off, que Rhys got up. :(

    Kids all up and fed, just need to get dressed. Need to throw pork into sc too. I think it's gonna be a long day but very early night.

    Quillion hugs and i hope all works out for you.
    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
  • Morning all

    Quillion - hugs, glad you see this as a positive move forward and please post what you need to.

    Lilo - I know what you mean about getting niggly jobs done. Well done on keeping things tidy.

    onestep - well done on getting back to driving
