Hi all - and PP I know everyone will join in with :grouphug: .

I'm going to hang the curtains my MIL gave me at the weekend - they're new, given to her as a gift and she didn't like them at all! They're just what I would have bought for myself - so I'm quite happy.

Started a serious clean in a storage space that had been over-run with things that you 'put away'. That's where I hid the ironing board - so now it's accessible I've no more excuses - but it's amazing how many things you don't need to iron if you wash at a low temperature, hang properly to dry and fold carefully. It also saves money! (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it). :rotfl:

I did bring the steam cleaner into play - it's not really been a good buy, and although it does the job it's not been worth what we spent on it.

We're eating from the freezer this week - so tonight it's going to be Tuna steaks - with veges from my organic box, which will arrive later today. There's also a loaf that need's defrosting, so no need to use the breadmaker. I think I might get a stew going in the SC for tomorrow - or maybe a curry, decisions, decisions.

New project has just come in, so sadly, I'll have to get my head down and do some work too - boring job this one, but it pays the bills!

Have a good day all.

Morning All

Have just skimmed the thread but wanted to send ((hugs)) to PP.

At w**k this afternoon and have toddler group this morning. TBH I'm really struggling with being OS this week all my motivation seems to have disappeared as has my motivation to even get out of bed in the mornings. This is not good but I dont really know what to do about it I just feel so down. Sorry to be depressing I know I should count my blessings and get on with it. I promise my next post will be my upbeat.

Have a good day everyone

Why can't I have some of the thunder. I love a good thunder storm...but very rarely get them. All we have is cloud.

Still thundering and lightening here too, having said that I'm not far from you in Blackpool. Never seen our old cat run inside so quick this morning

I'll just add these weather comments to the Daily Thread

Grey, grimey and damp like an old floor cloth. Yuk

((((HUGS)))) Penny Pincher! What a horrible shock for you, please get 2nd opinion though. I guess they have to warn you of the very worst thing that could happen (to cover themselves) but doesn't necessarily mean it will happen. Positive thoughts and prayers are being sent your way.
