    AJ thinking of you and family today xx

    Well, think the D&V has stopped, so time to fly!
    Bathroom done!
    Kitchen done!
    My bedroom done!- although piddling down with rain so no line drying at the mo for the bedding.
    Have dumped fresh bedding in rooms for DD and DS, hopefully they will take the hint, she is working but he's still in bed, the joy of study leave, next exam is History next Friday!
    Will take mum shopping, then attack the living room, who ever thought of black glass tv units, it looks as though it has a fur coat on, the dust gathered in this house is ridiculous!
    RIP Iain

    AJ - thinking of you and your family today.

    3 loads of washing just pegged out on the line. I nip upstairs to clean the bathroom and come back down to rain! :(

    I've been to hospital to see my nephew. He really is in a sorry state. Thank you all so very much for the healing vibes. The hospital is estimating that he will stay with them for 2 weeks. It's heartbreaking to see him.

    Sun is shining now! I hope it stays away it's only 2 days till the Moonwalk:eek:.

    Mumto5 heaps more healing vibes for your nephew - poor little mite x
    Pigpen - wow, you are a busy lady! That makes it even more impressive that you have time to do everything on here to help us mortals :D thank you :T

    Well I have washed my bedroom windows (large bay with 5 windows) & Ds bedroom window (for the first time, I think, since they went in over 2 years ago!), cleared my bedroom floor, wiped down the woodwork, dusted the bedroom & landing, had a shower & repainted my toenails! (me time is on tomorrows list, but I won't get time then :D) I have only just put my hoover back together, so haven't vac'd up yet.

    Had lunch and now must play with Little Miss Sunshine all afternoon :j
    See you later x
