No. Please listen to your body and have a rest woman. Bath, bed, the mess will still be there in the morning but you will have the energy to deal with it.

DH is in the departure lounge in Chicago, so I'm taking a cup of tea and a couple of just out of the oven peanut butter cookies to bed, and will make the most of my last night sleeping on the diagonal :rotfl:

Evening all
Another day at the factory, another $ earned
Been farming this evening and planning the planting for optimal harvesting by Miss A tomorrow afternoon

We have just watched the inside the human body prog on the beeb, fascinating and I have just caught up on here.
Found out that Quo ARE in Sheff this Dec, thought last night they were missng us out this time but my very good friend made some good suggestions for seeing them in Brum. But now we can see them a lot closer to home
Miss A does not know yet, I want the tickets booked before I tell her. Not on release until the weekend.
Better get farming before bed calls.
Sounds like a good plan pigpenOfficial Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang

Never mind...
Jobs for tomorrow
Vacuum upstairs and down
Make bed
Empty DW
Empty & wipe sink

That's all folks!
(In truth there are probably a million other things to do, but I really CBA to even think of them, never mind do them)
Stuffit, I'm having a day off. Plenty of time to scrub floors over the weekend when I'm alone and bored/desperate.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll
