Please don’t bottle it up, it won’t do you any good honey. *wise words, so why can’t I take my own advice..lol* You aren’t going anywhere in the near future, and Diva would not want you to give up fighting..so my darling friend live life for all it’s worth and do it for Diva…

Natty Thanks honey .. yep, wise words ..I'm in tears just reading them .. you are always there for me too .. I appreciate it :A xxxx

Thanks to everyone for all the purple yesterday & lovely words & candles for Diva .. I have passed the links to the various threads on to her OH & I know he has been reading some & lit a candle himself.

Not a happy bunny as the intermittent sciatica is becomming more frequent but my boss (obstetrician) is going to refer me for physio. Not queue jumping - more he wants to keep me at work for as long as possible:p

On the flylady front; today i have:
made the bed
S&S in the bathroom
Decluttered and vacuumed the living room floor (I did it on Sunday and already it was covered in bits) including under furniture!
Dusted and dewebed (I need a longer feather duster to reach into the corner - or I could just bully DH to do it for me)
Swept and vacuumed the kitchen floor
washed crockery and wiped the sink (really need to sort out a new plug so I can shine it properly again)
Decluttered and wiped worksurfaces 2/4 surfaces.
Wiped cupboard, fridge and freezer doors!


Tonight, I plan to take a couple of paracetamol, wait 30 minutes for them to kick in then:
1) load the WM then put clothes on airer (before going in TD on Wednesday)
2) mop kitchen and bathroom floor immediately before going to bed
3) Straighten a bookcase
4) Wipe and polish the kitchen table
5) Wash/replace any scanky dishclothes/sponges etc
6) get swimming things ready for Wednesday morning
7) chill out and relax; watching my big fat gypsy wedding!

Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning everyone.

DH is working from home this morning for the first time since before I broke my hand in December. I can't make up my mind to stay at home or go shopping as it's the first day I've had that I've been able to drive and haven't had poorlies at home.

Diva's candle has been put away. I'm not really a candle person. Too many boys, rough and tumble and potential for accidents.

New hose has arrived for my dyson so I can give my kitchen floor and stairs a good going over.

Hope everyone has a good day x

Regular pattern has emerged and she's complaining she gets week long headaches but this is the first I've heard of them

She may be getting pre-menstrual migraines, I've suffered with them for years, I'd suggest she goes to the Docs.

I'll join you AnW's Mum - a little late, but better than nothing! Going to get a whole load of dailies done, then see about doing Purple Monday's Living Room. I've only just seen the news about MoneySavingDiva, and am so sorry. Have changed my own 'stockings and high heels' avatar for a purple candle.

Thanks as ever for the lists - back later with progress.
