    I'll be flying this week but not posting again till tomorrow... we had a good weekend away, maybe a bit too much sun. An unpaid day of interviewing people for a job awaits me today, then back to paid work tomorrow. Meanwhile, as am unwashed, haven't eaten and due to get a lift at 8.45, better get on with it:D
    Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans, no more merciful beheadings, and call off Christmas.

    This morning my back is bad so having to pace myself but MUST vacuum, sore back or otherwise. Its disgusting on the floor.

    I also noticed my cleaning clothes looked a bit dingy after last wash, so have dumped half of them in a bucket of dilute bleach. Dingy cleaning clothes are seriously depressing. :)

    I have HUGE buildups on in all my hotspots so that's got to be high on the list this week.

    cyclingyorkie *positive vibes for your DD*

    I'm back in again this week, have loads to do and i must eat a big frog today. It's been staring at me for ages. :rotfl:

    Gonna get me and Rhys ready and then were away to the hospital. Rhys can't wait to go see his daddy. :D Hubby seems to have picked up abit and had his first full good day yesterday and i think seeing Rhys will help bring him on too.

    Right i best move....
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.
