Triker - I've saved your post, I thought it was just brilliant.

Greenbee - love and hugs. Can't add anything to what Triker said.

I've had a completely idle day, reading, and watching The Holiday with DD this afternoon. I have done a couple of loads of washing, and cooked lasagne for dinner. We're now pretty much out of anything except pasta, soup and potatoes, so I'll need to shop tomorrow. There were no online delivery slots - though why people thought S'bury would be able to deliver if they couldn't get out to the store, I don't know!

Love and hugs, especially toots, and lady-liberty, and any other flyladies who could make good use of one tonight.

Triker - loved your post! That's some food for thought.

Triker - well said x
Greenbee - you know where we all are when you need us x

Well a not very productive evening but I've actually enjoyed the relaxing feeling under the weather brings on and my back doesn't actually hurt at the minute. I've decluttered some grot by having a shower as I started to relax a little more when DP phoned to say his taxi is broken so he'll be finishing early. Sod the money he'll be home and safe.

I must do some bank account shuffling and print a reference I need to complete for someone.

If today was your last day on earth, is your OH's the last face you'd like to see?

Do you believe you deserve love...lovely true love?

Is he your best friend?

Does the world seem 'just better' since you've found each other?

OMG I just answered "YES" to # 1, 3 and 4 of the above (still working no #2), and am now sat with my back to Mr LW cos I don't want him to see me come all over soppy; it'd ruin my image.:o

Signing off now, to go and bash seven hells out of a few Darkspawn - that'll get my equilibrium back.;)

Night-night all, sleep safe, and pleasant dreams.:o

Greenbee - mega hugs!

I agree with whoever posted - you need to do the test so your records are accurate!

I hope both you and OH get a decent night's sleep tonight - sounds like you need it!

Good morning all. I wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone on the thread as I feel that it's really helped me keep going this week. My house is looking much tidier and I seem to be getting tasks done that have been looming over me for a while.

I have now finished 2 rooms entirely and hope to get a couple more finished off today. I have a long to-do of other bits today too. I seem to have gotten started with lots of tasks this week then I've gotten very easily distracted ...
