    glad to sea you are more focussed and positive - dont let them beat you - you have been decent and given them fair warning about the wedding - they cant just muck people lives about like that- as you say its not just you its all the family and friends who have arranged to be there. Maybe Dh will have to jump ship at the port closest to the wedding!!!!:rotfl:
    grateful hope DD is better soon
    xxJoxx you did loads yesterday honey - well done you:T shame about the aches today though - hope they get easier (((hugs)))

    Afternoon all

    Doing very little as I'm feeling grim, really annoyed as it is sunny outside.

    Think I'll see if I can drink a cuppa.

    I just made it up... I was working through some of the stuff on the blog and it occurred to me that most of the things that are blocking me could be dealt with if I planned. So I did :D but it has to be manageable - and if something doesn't get done one day it can get moved to another when there might be more time. Some stuff gets crossed of early. I based it on the many lists I have floating around of things that need doing but don't get done.

    Lunch eaten. Second load of washing hung out. Making progress with the presentation. Hopefully it will be finished in time to get some gardening done later ... before OH gets back and discovers I haven't changed anything since he left on Friday :o

    Well my whites load is on the line, and I've another load of sheets (and the odd white item that Moon forgot to put in the laundry basket) in the wash as we speak. I seem to have missed the main sunshine, as it's moved past my washing line now, but fingers crossed the washing still dries. Think the sheets will end up in the TD, because by the time the wash load has finished washing and I've hung it on the line, it'll only end up with a couple of hours to dry, and I'm not sure that it will (will put them out and finish off in the TD though, as like Valli, I hate to use it if I don't have to).

    Off to make a cup of tea (got quite cold hanging out the washing) and then plod on with the cleaning.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I've made a start on DD's room and i think it will be an all day job. All her clothes have been sorted and one bin bag of outgrown stuff is out. A cupboard has been emptied and moved into the boys room. :D

    Gonna move a few things about and sort through her toy box.

    Need to get dinner on now before everyone starves. :rotfl:
    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.

    so OH has emptied the bin, yay about time too, can the man not smell it like I can?

    now I am off for a shower, would love a bath but still got 1 or 2 little gaps in my wound that have not quite healed so not a good idea, besides I could get IN to the bath but not sure I could get OUT again!!!
    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last
