sadly OH believes it's not a problem, so won't visit the GP.......

5 days until half term ........ I can't wait!
Slowly this place is becoming more organised - I go into rooms and I'm starting to smile. No other family member has noticed yet though.......
Hugs and spoons to all who need them - I have decluttered my porridge so I'm off top do the washing up.......:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Just to say I am officially a lurker this week! Will be doing housework but just not following list exactly or posting my list (cannot be bothered typing!).
Back also painful, but possibly easing, and so not wanting to overdo it.
Not read thread yet- hugs to all who need and hopefully catch up on some of it later.
Thanks Pigpen, Toots and everyone who makes this thread worthwhile!
