Sorry ladies I haven't been able to keep up with the lists, so hugs to everyone who needs them.
I decided Thursday would be a master bedroom and LR day. So I started with my 'I have been putting this off for ages and its really grotty' job of stripping everything off the bookcases in my room, cleaning bookcases, books and putting back in an order. Well I spent 6 hours on it yesterday (we have a lot of books!!!) and its still not finished. :eek: I didn't even cook tea, OH had to heat one of our emergency meals from freezer. Today I am going to finish it:mad: and locate/order another 2 bookcases to house the piles that sit on top of the other 4 bookcases/desk/boxes under desk... We don't have hotspots in this house more like piles of books in dusty heaps.
Hugs and spoons for all. x0 -
shysarah the nurse tells you to take it easy and then you post your list!! :eek: do take it easy; little flutters only!!

Spoappie - great to see you back posting; the Force of the Flyladies is always with you, and we can help with crampons and ice axes as necessary
2 jobs for today are dyeing a sheet and towel of DD's purple, and my hair red - need to make sure i don;t muddle them up
I've heard from DH that he's now in Beijing, so please can I have good weather vibes so that he can land and take off from Schipol tonight, and be home :j I'm really worried that if there's snow there or in Humberside airport he may be diverted and/or delayed
Thanks to the Flyladies, the house looks great - even the dining RoD is respectable :j:j:j
Have a great day everyone :A:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -

We were woken up this morning with a phone call from OHs sister letting us know their dad had been taken into hospital. As they are all working today and I have the day off I am doing the calls with the hospital to keep them informed. The doc is with him in A & E at the mo and I am to ring in half an hour so I am going to try and get some jobs done before I ring them back.
