Hello all.
As usual, having a catch-up with Fred while I eat a Quorn and onion sandwich.;)
Toots so sorry to hear about your friend (((HUG)))
Oh, this is sooooo true of me too. Also, the necessary tasks take three times as long as ever they used to, leaving no time for anything I'd like to do, but which doesn't directly benefit the house/Mr LW.:( I have a Companions magazine (in-house mag for PDSA Best Friends) that came last week, and I haven't yet managed to even look at it. And last night, I hadn't finished my Brain Training when Mr LW got in from work :eek:– I was slotting the different exercises in between doing things like putting the veggies in oil, hotting up the nut loaf (cooked but frozen in slices), and setting the table. One day I have to get organised......:rotfl:toottifrootti wrote: »I am always bored because I cant do the things that I want to - I am turning into a grumpy old woman!
Msgnomey ooh, carpal tunnel doesn't sound too good.:(
A'n'Ws – how's Miss A's poor thumb now, while we're on the subject of poorly paws?
Cat4772 oh, no, back paws included in the mix, too; oh, your poor toe!:(
Wolfy (((HUGS))) and healing vibes to the above, and all others with injuries, or who are poorly.
Oh, and message to Dogbot.... LEAVE YOUR BITS ALONE AND KEEP YOUR LAMPSHADE ON!:D
Flying-wise.... so far today I've:
Scrabbled about to get bathed and dressed while Mr LW was here to assist.
Decluttered Mr LW to work:p and tidied the kitchen.
Flaked out on the sofa exhausted because the scrabbling about first thing uses up a lot of spoons.:(
Emptied the airing cupboard of washing to be put away, sorted and put mine away and left Mr LW's on the bed for his attention tonight.;)
Made pizza dough.
Put BM on for a wholemeal loaf, tidied kitchen again and washed up.
Grabbed today's listy.:o
Marked off what's already done (study stuff gets done on lounge day, as we don't have a separate study).;)
Called in my email and deleted the obvious junk.
So.... I guess I can't put off scrubbing the bathroom any longer.:cool:If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

LW we have given up on the lampshade as Dogbot was using it as a weapon of mass destruction, so I've transformed a pair of my old leggings into a dogkini
. Now I just need to find a way of getting him to stay still.
So as well as todays list I've also hoovered our room (except OH side of the bed as you cant see the floor there any way and as you cant see the mess unless you walk round the bed it can stay there until he sorts it out) and made the bed.
Ive also done DD and DS room, they just need the beds made, which they can do themselves when they come home. So now the WM is on with the first load of the day and another to will follow.
Time to sit down have a coffee and so lunch I think."Let your boat of life be light, pack only what you need- A homely home and simple pleasures,one or two friends worth the name, someone to love and someone who loves you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, as thirst is a dangerous thing" Jerome k.

Im in again today all be it very late!!! Ive just completed my 3rd walk to school and im really peed off with it! DD decided she wasnt going to school so I walked DS to school, then at 10 I finally persuaded DD to go to school so ended up walking with her just to ensure she actually got there. and now DS was going kayakking with school this morning but needed to take his school uniform in to wear this afternoon but had forgotten his shirt so ive walked back to school to take it for him!!! Grrrrr from now on if anyone forgets anything then its tough !!!!!! they can do without and suffer the consequences!
Anyway off to declutter a coffee and s + s the kitchen sides whilst im waiting for the kettle to boil.
Will be back later with a listypoos
Hugs, spoons and sticks to all
