    pigpen I don't mind having bathroom again today. I have plenty to do in the study/storage room. Can you get a nap when Freja has her next one so you can catch up on last night?

    No chance.. we don't have more than a couple of hours anyway and not after 3pm.. plus I powernap so would be up stupidly late so I need to battle through and go to bed maybe a bit earlier than 1/2am!!

    It's not happening :mad: got back from town to an email from the company I used saying the girl she spoke to was new and in training and hadn't realised that they were fully booked :mad: I am going to try and see if there is anywhere else but not holding my breath. Our friend thinks we were going out for a nice lunch, it might have to be that now

    Yep.:T We realised my lupus brainfog was getting markedly worse, so Mr LW suggested we get it, together with Dr Kawashima's Brain Training and some Professor Layton puzzle games, to try and stop the rot. The great thing is I can use it lying on the sofa if need be.:D;)

    Kids all collected from school and boys now tiding their room on the promise they can play their new game. Eye test went well today, mine has got better.....hubby's a little worse.

    Right, now to get the kitchen tidied before Mr T comes. Then hubby watching football later and i'll get abit of painting done. Bought the paint for the doors so need to get my hands on some tresals, think my dad has some.....so best phone him later. :D
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    [/STRIKE]

    That plus a load of washing/drying is done and I have tidied up the study a fair bit and put all the hall items into the study, books on shelves, sorted out random junk etc.

    That is it for me today. All I need to do now is have a very long hot shower as tbh I stink. Will be a shower as I can't bear the idea of a bath when I am this smelly, dusty and yucky. For me a bath is a bubble fest too so a shower will keep the bath a bit cleaner :rotfl:

    Tea is simple, warm up some of Mondays curry with some bread and then the rest needs to be shoehorned into the freezer somehow. Might have to take out some meat and soup to make it work.

    Ok... I am off to chillax..

    Love, Hugs and Spoons

    Got in from work to a stinky house as Jerry has diarrhoea. I've cleaned that up but there is still a slight whiff so I'll mop the kitchen floor in a min I think.
