Lamewolf spoons coming your way but you have to use them wisely honey - its not good if you become exhausted - if housework or something has to be postponed then so be it - remember you are aiming for a the best life you can manage not sheer exhaustion:eek: (((hugs)))

Thanks Toots. I have no idea why it hit me so badly last night - I don't think I'd done anything untoward. Unfortunately, that's just one of the joys (!) of lupus. But I will be taking it extra careful for a few days.:o

Declutter the floors Done

4. empty and wash out bins and fill coal/kindling baskets as required Bins all done; coal/kindling N/A

Tooch (((HUGS))); been there, sort of - I found out 2 years after the event, so was spared having to decide whether or not to attend the funeral (with hindsight, I don't think I'd have gone in any case).
Try and get a night's sleep, and see how you feel about things in the morning.

Hugs Tooch

DH decided he wanted to go shopping after we'd been out for lunch so I only had time to come in, get my uniform on and go to Beavers.

URGH, thanks for all the gentle hugs and good wishes guys, saw Dr who thinks I may need USS as I could have a collection of fluid??bleed inside my 'swelly belly' I said it was a bit better than sat and sun so she said to come back on Friday and see her again and she'll decide, BUT have then had a grotty day, slept on and off for most of it feeling sore and woozy...may go back to dr tomorrow

hugs tooch, news like that is always a shock, take care of yourself

I've been busy today!

Started with an hour or so on the allotment, planting broad beans and garlic, quite cool, but lovely sunshine.

After lunch, we cleared a car load of rubbish to the tip, then DD and I started on her room. She's done the bookshelf, and all the stuff under her bed, and the pile of DVD's and CD's on the floor, and is halfway along the top of the chest of drawers. She's sensibly sorting as she goes, so we now have another couple of bags of rubbish, and one for Oxfam.

Tomorrow we'll empty the wardrobe and the chest of drawers, and then her boyfriend will be over to give us a hand taking those downstairs and in front of the garage.

I also plan to clean all downstairs while waiting for the I*** delivery - apparently sometime between 7am and 11am!

Love and hugs especially for tooch today. *** I've just pm'd you again.

Hugs tooch x

So far today I have been to work all day, came home and went for a run, made a sandwich for tea as it was too late to cook what I planned and I'l make this tomorrow. Washed up all pots and tupperwares for work.

Flying wise cleared out 2 drawers from the sideboard in the LR

Also took delivery of more jamjars from Lakeland so I now have enough to last me until the year after next!

Too tired to fly as planned in the LR so will delay this until tomorrow evening and complete the 2 lists then
