    Just decluttered a 12" Subway - it was lush!!!! Had a good Maths session - today we learned about subtraction and decompositon, partitioning and boundaries; great stuff! We were set a question which a Y4 child could do, luckily I got it right but it took a lot of thinking about!!

    Nixie, heaps of positive, stay calm vibes winging their way to your friend.

    Hope all the sickly los get better soon; seems a lot around right now.

    Need to do a HHC 12.45 - 1.15 and may carry on a bit longer. Anyone want to join me?

    Ok, sitting here browsing is not getting anything done so off for a HHC upstairs before remaking the bed and putting more clothes out on the line.....

    Well Flylady vibes are obviously amazing! She passed!!! :) They recommended she get an automatic car at some point, but she's just waiting for her license to be returned now :)
    I'm really happy for her :) (I'm not sniveling about it, it's something in my eye... honest :rotfl:)
    She sent me a very short text saying she'd done it which means she's still shook up about it so I'll see if she's up to a visitor tomorrow and go give her a big huge cuddle :)

    Right I'm gonna put the kettle on and have a HHC at 1, anyone wanna join me?
    I'm aiming to clear the breakfast bar :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Afternoon all

    I've done all the lists, though not necessarily in the right order;)

    Two loads of washing almost dry, it's beautiful out there.

    Dinner cooking so I'm just catching up with posts, hope everyone's OK.
  • Toots hope the funeral goes ok.

    I had a nightmare last night about my deceased MIL, does that count as haunting??

    Dog walked, DD2 vaccinated, kitchen s and s'd and d/w on.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    Brilliant news nixie.

    Toots - thinking of you.

    Trying to decide what to have for dinner - so far today I've had a banana and some ice-cream - I'm hungry but as soon as I start eating something I go off the idea.

    I also need to decide what to do for tea as DD's friend is coming over. I did think about fetching some pizza bases and letting them do their own pizzas as I'll have to fetch some bread anyway.

    I wish there was some way Mr LW could convince you that anyone who meets you sees the warm, caring, intelligent, 'equal to anyone and better than many', woman that he loves not the 'never-existed' fantasy that has taken up residence in your head. Having said that I know that what gets in to a child's mind sticks even when it is proved to be completely wrong.
