Hi All
Just been catching up on the thread whilst letting my toe nails dry. Need to eat then do the rest of my tan - done my legs and face need to do my arms and body next. Might paint my finger nails too and decluttler a few vino's.
Feel so much happier now am flying again funny how we think routines are only for kids yet we thrive on them too:)
Got tomorrow (DD at school) and friday (DD off to Grandma's for the weekend) to myself so going to write myself a little plan of action tonight - might include a little haircut for myself on friday as a treat as I think the house will be gleaming by then. YeY!

DS1 back from golf with another broken club, he did win the tournament though. So I've printed off a job application form for him for the local sports centre as it will take a while to earn enough to replace the 3 clubs which have broken now.

Rad leak in Snug means smelly carpet. I have it rolled back so the underlay dries out but the room still smells of damp. Any suggestions? I have a vax washer thingy, and have had the windows open as much as I can for days. Concrete floor, underlay, thick horrid carpet that I dont want to replace till we have finished till the building work ends.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
