HHI done. Exam marking looms!

Goodintentions

Lamewolf I have PM'd you

Jo Dr Who can be scary for young children, if they are the sensitive type. DD2 watches it clutching hold of me!! (she is 16!!) Yet she watches horror movies :huh: (at friends' houses, not mine!)

Well, today I have cleared the dining table (I couldn't see it this morning!), emptied the hoover & cleaned the filter, cleared out the butterfly & ladybird enclosures (they were let loose in the garden some days/weeks ago ) weeded the garden, started planting some troughs (should have been done weeks ago!) but it rained on me , updated my fire alarm test sheet, updated my risk assessments, and S&S the kitchen. DH has cut the grass (before the rain ) and he is prepping dinner with DS (DS wanted to make dinner, but doesn't know how!). Off to walk the dog in a mo I think.

I will update later

Sounds exciting greenbee, I love travelling by public transport - I'm such a weirdo though I guess it loses its appeal if you have to do it a lot for work.

I had to spend about 3 hours in a car on Thursday (not even all in one chunk!) and hated every minute of it.

Yep, it does lose it's appeal. My idea of a holiday is not going anywhere...

Strimming done. Hedges at back done. Contemplating mixing up some roundup to do the drive. Maybe I should do the plant feed first so I don't get any cross-contamination (I have separate watering cans).

Then just kitchen cleaning, hoovering, floor-washing, freezing last bits of food, bins, packing and nails to do.... Oh and DW and washing up....


May e I should try to keep on top of things a bit better

That sounds like a lot of fun And laughter is the BEST medicine, so I hope she is feeling better today

Just popping in to say hi :hello: to all my flylday friends!

Everyone's all right, but just very busy at the moment, so computer time has to be limited, or nothing else gets done. Minimal flying happening, although I did the bathroom properly on Friday.

Love and hugs, especially for toots, lady-liberty and lamewolf, and all the poorlies.

Nice to see you serena

Plants fed. Weeds poisoned. Next stop kitchen to investigate what food remains to be dealt with... Think it is probably radishes, chicory, lettuce and pears....

Afternoon all.

Ashamed to admit that zero flying done today as had DD2 at A&E this morning. She's hardly slept all weekend (and therefore neither have I) and today complained of a sore ear. I had a look at 0730 to see gunk coming out of her ear so phoned NHS24. The out of hours service phoned me back at 0800 to tell me to take her to the out of hours doc at A&E so we were there by 0815. No-one was there apart from staff and we had to wait till 0850 to be seen:mad:. And then the doc was just a rude so and so. But we got drops for her ears and she is sleeping at the mo. Boots are great pharmacists up here as when we went in for her ear drops, they promptly gave me a bottle of paracetamol and one of ibuprofen on the minor ailments. So saved me about £12-£15 there! Am knackered!!!

Then came home to get a phone call from one of my work colleagues. There are only 3 of us and it looks like the boss is wanting to get rid of one of us. So am going back to work tomorrow after 2 weeks holidays to the uncertainty of whether I will still have a job by the end of the week! :eek::eek::eek:

So am a bit tired but a lot did get done this week so fingers crossed DH will continue with it next week!

Valli

been to town so I picked up some lambs lettuce seeds (Wilkos have half price seeds) and started with batch 1.
I Have had what I think is a genius idea for my class's allotment patch for next year...I am going to gather up some strawberry runners, root them and plant them - then they will need minimal careand we will have something to 'show' for summer term - it's really difficult for us to get the class down there as we have no-one to help. There really isn't enough room for a whole class to work at once...
Done some ironing - about one-and-a-half lots left (I do a 'maidenful' at a time.)

greenbee

Pear, hazelnut and chocolate cake in the oven. DW on. Veg stew ready to freeze. Kitchen still hasn't been cleaned though nor have the floors and suitcase still isn't packed

Just going to have a bit of a rest then try to make some progress. Need to check what time I booked the taxi for tomorrow morning too...
