    Big Hugs Jassa, that sounds awful. I hope you and your family manage to deal with what you can and DD's baby stays calm until its due date.

    Thanks ALL.. I am still spinning round like a little teen. Its fab, even washing up I had a great big grin on my face lol..:D

    Have got a wiggle on though. Made the decision to stay in my pjs today because I can and having had a guest I didn't have the lazy weekend I normally enjoy.

    Have been busying around and struck some bits off my list. The bathrooms been easy as I gave it a thorough going over on Friday pre guests and despite having to pick man face hair out the sink its just a S&S..

    Monday - bathroom, study and other grotty places!

    Expenses done (just need to attach receipts to the last three sets and take them to the office on Thursday)
    Batch of mince cooked (minced wild goose breast, onion, carrot, red lentils, left over ancient red wine, passata)
    Batch of pigeon casserole in SC (onions, mushrooms, pigeon breasts and some more of the ancient red wine with a splash of port)
    DW on
    CBA to clean up the kitchen, so may wrap some presents while pretending to work...

    Just thought... I'm going to bring my garden seat cushions into the utility room and put the dehumidifier on as they're soaking wet in the shed... better do that before it gets cold(er) and dark. Then I'll light the stove and do the wrapping and work in the living room so I can put off switching the heating on.

    Been in the garden playing Sarah Raven with DH's car paint spray :D

    ooh, I want a picture! I have her Christmas book whih I have really enjoyed, but I just have no skill at all when it comes to crafts.

    woohoo for shysarah

    Jassa - huge hugs for you, mut be devastating to see it that way.

    Thanks to everyone for the lists and the support. Huge amounts to do this week, so I wasted the morning food shopping and decluttering most of my hair.

    So far I have put the WM on and thta is it, so I must get something useful done before I pick the children up.
