    Hi all

    Piggers I'm in total agreement with your pragmatic approach.

    Hoping the day goes as well as possible for Toots.

    Kazw lots of healing vibes; totally understand, as I had all my back teeth out in one hit plus part of my jawbone removed in the mid eighties; not pleasant!

    There was more, but my brain's fried today, probably because all my joints feel like they're on fire and it's taking all my concentration/energy to push through the pain.:(

    Louie has been for a nice walk, and has supervised the hanging out of the washing - I need to keep an eye on the big black clouds though; washing hokey cokey may be on the cards!:cool:

    Mr LW is wfh again today (two earlies in one week??) so I don't have a great deal of time to get the lists finished - good thing I'm slightly ahead with them!;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    find OH's birth cert (for pension scheme application, so it's important)
    GP's re sicknote once OH is out of hospital
    make sure OH has all his meds (check about patches)
    print off form for DVLA (have to be notified of his condition)
    print off directions to resort and confirmation for accommodation
    print off car insurance details
    find breakdown cover details
    print off other holiday info
    [STRIKE]e-mail accommodation to say that we may be a day late (if OH too tired to go tmw)[/STRIKE]
    check mail
    wash, dry and iron
    put clothes away
    take DS2 for swimming lesson :D (haven't watched him for 2 weeks)
    collect DS2's swimming pass from friend who took him last week
    holiday-related shopping
    bank for kids spending money
    write packing list
    shower

    Will join in with any existing HHCs or do my own, 11.10-11.40. Must peg washing out and put WM on, have shower, quick tidy of bedroom before setting off to collect OH. Not sure whether to leave DS2 with friends as his brother is still in his pit. If I take him, will also need to get him washed and dressed.
    On your marks - Ready, steady,...

  • have no idea where all this carp keeps coming from. the spare room has managed to amass more junk bags, i have 10 bags/small boxes that need sorting out still :mad: i honestly thought id done all of it, but obviously not.

    its all stacked neatly against a wall so i can hoover through in a bit and i think thats my cat flap replacement thats just been posted through the door :D

    going to go and get showered and dressed cause i still havent done that, then going to have something to eat and then potter on with the rest of the list.

    Afternoon all

    I've got a load of washing dry and put away, spent two hours gardening, vacuumed right through downstairs and washed the kitchen floor. My back and hands are really painful now so I've taken a tablet and I'm going to try not to drop anything (like yesterday when I dropped the flour:eek:).

    It's a lovely day but hotter than I expected.....

    OK time to start cooking.
