    Just checking in while I have a time-out as my tail-bone is hurting like the very devil.:(

    I'm part-way through the list – it's a little strange doing the bathroom/study before lounge day, as we don't have a separate study, so I need to work out what to try and do today, and what to leave til lounge day.;) I absolutely must not try and do it all, or I'll end up spoonless for the rest of the week.:eek:
    Mumto5 lots of healing vibes for your poor nephew. I was badly scalded as a small child (my mother emptied the washing boiler over me) so I have every sympathy for the poor little chap.

    Jojo I hope Minion's test went well.

    Piggers glad to hear that Squeak's derriere is a bit better; hope Tabitha is also improving. Ah, reading on a bit, I see she's home.... excellent news.:T
    Right, time for the next round; sorry, I'm not up to joining in HHCs today; doing my own QHCs instead.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Had another good HHC; will put remaining items on but apart from the stuff I deleted for the bathroom I've also given the chooks a treat (the loaf of bread I tried to do this morning which was a disaster) and watered the vegs which are looking really good now.

    I'm about to go and walk Pip cos she's looking at me with those beautiful brown eyes of hers saying come on Mum!

    Here's what's left.

    Tuesday
    Do ironing from washing put up Sun am
    7.30 Fellowship Group – here

    Dancemum, AJ and Gunsandbanjos, how did you get on?

    LW, sorry to hear about your tailbone - I bashed mine once and it was agony so I sympathise (see, more twin stuff going on here!)

    Anyone for a HHC at 3? I may be able to finish the list in that time!

    I have just updated my Toots list if we get all of it done I will be quite happy but it is definately a work in progress!
