MrsC You can have some of my time. I feel like I've been up forever. DH crowbarred me out of bet at 0600. Have dealt with 2 frogs and a hound walk and I can't believe its only 1030.

Anyone got any spare hugs and spoons at about 1200 - going to be quite difficult thinking of sister. Although did manage to organise champagne and a card to get to them.

That's the sitting room done apart from the vaccuuming - DH is installing the new bath with our friend the plumber so I can't ask him to do it yet.

I now need to attack the kitchen which is suffering a bit from me being incapacitated. I think I'll make it a HHC from 10.45 if anyone wants to join in.

Valli hope the kids have a fab time. Which part of the US are they going to? Is it a school thing?

Bed stripped

Couple of bits on here then off I go again before another cuppa.

That's very kind and generous. Will be thinking of you and sending coping vibes.

I have now booked a hotel room, apologised for the missed hairdresser's appt and asked for a new one and made an appt to take cat to the vet's tomorrow. Not bad. Need to get the DSs doing something productive, though.

Well done on the weight loss kaz, that's brilliant. What have you been doing?

jue - your poor feet! I'd recommend fitflops, they are the most comfy things in the world!

DD is frantically flying as I promised I'd take her to Debenhams to look at prom dresses once her room was tidied to my satisfaction ;) Quite amazing what she can do once she puts her mind to it.

I'm absolutely raging as I've just had a big row with 3 mobile over DDs mobile contract. The shop will be getting a visit on the way to Debenhams. They wont know whats hit them :mad:

I've tidied up the cloakroom and dysoned it. Some winter things are in the WM and DDs bedding is next to go in. Loads of post has just arrived, better go check to see if there is a rejection from Thursdays interview

Dusty/Serena, I have just had to deal with lilly beetles :eek:

All the clean washing has been sorted and folded. Just need to actually put it away next

HHC over - it will need another one but my back's starting to hurt a bit so I'll have a rest and then go for the rest of the kitchen at 11.45.
