    I've been flying but 'off liste' :p

    Royal visit on Thursday (inlaws) so crazily trying to tidy and clean, and work. Did loads of ironing tonight but not enough. :( My back is aching from standing.
    I have to get to bed now before I lose the plot......
    Up at 5.45 as usual - grrr

    Night all, and hugs etc...... xxx
    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'

    sexymose OUCH! take care babe

    shopaholic IKWYM about the kitchen, my 2 cats sleep in their at night (well the window is open so they can come and go) I found that when it is wet they can make one hell of a mess!! I usually put a tea towel on the work top where the land when they come in the window, cuts down a bit on foot prints!!

    supervised DD making lasagne and wedges tonight which she did really well (but was unsure of how to make cheese sauce- hence the 'supervision')

    OH is being a pain in the a*r*s*e so I'm letting him get on with it!

    Just about to feed the TD, take my pills (after my visit to the doctors I am now about to have 13 tablets before I go to sleep eeeeeeeeeeeeekkk)

    Love hugs and spoons to all who need them

    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last

  • Firstly, Happy Birthday to Willow for tomorrow xx

    Master bedroom tomorrow, I see.

    Will do majority of it, but have a little problem. The Housing Assoc plumbed in a new bath incorrectly last week and it has been p1551ng bath-loads (literally) of water through the house. Consequently soaking my newish bedroom and hallway carpet and living room ceiling. My bedroom now smells like a tribe of cheeky tom-cats have been spraying in there.

    Wet carpet REEKS doesn't it?

    Waiting on an inspection from HA, in the meantime I shall dutifully polish and dust etc etc, whilst wearing a Michael Jackson style mask!!

    :rotfl:If you have made someone laugh today... check your skirt isn't tucked into your knickers!!!:rotfl:
    Mrs B you're a legend.

    Sexy you take care honey, fingers crossed it isn't appendicitis xx
    LL hope you aren't feeling too painful after your fall, and that the bruises are starting to heal.
    Serena, sending sticky vibes to your SIL - fingers crossed honey.

    Happy Birthday for tomorrow
    Willow, hope you have a lovely day :)

    Toots sweets, have you stuck me on ignore or have you given up sticking me in your list when you do your daily post, as I haven't seen myself on your daily review for a couple of days..:) :)

    So far I have decluttered tea, separated my two scrapping dogs and sorted out the dry washing
    :) And am feeling really proud of myself as I made a really lovely lasagna with all homemade ingredients instead of using a jar for the sauces. DH said he loved it, and I must admit the homemade cheesy bechamel sauce was gorgeous and definately one I will be doing for my white sauces in future :)
