LameWolf

Well, I'd hoped I might get a few minutes for a bit of cross stitch at some point today, but predictably, it hasn't happened. *rolleyes* (Actually - who was I trying to kid??):cool:

I've only just finished all the must-do tasks, and Mr LW is on his way home.

As mentioned earlier, we're due at T & M's at 20:00, and we have to eat dinner, do (at the very least) Mr LW's body-check on the Wii, (don't think there'll be time for him to actually exercise tonight), set up the video for a programme he wants to see that's broadcast tonight, get Ted sorted - fed, tipped outside for a wee, and his Kong toy stuffed with treats for while we're out - and I need to throw on some war paint.

All I really want to do is curl up and [STRIKE]die[/STRIKE] go to sleep.:(

Valli

Not been a good day here. DS has had a shock...results not good enough


so I've been a shoulder - then I went to my mums and cried.


Made some HM soup with fridge bottom

hex2

Hugs for Lamewolf - I chuckled at gaspode, must re-read those next. On David Eddings - Belgariad/Mallorean at the moment
Valli - that doesnt sound like you, hope all is ok. I work just off 21a so had fun getting home yesterday.

Only skimming, v busy atm so apologies for not contributing - just didnt want to read and run.

DW is on, need to crack on with everything else though. Life is much easier with DH at home with the boys, no packed lunhes at least!

gunsandbanjos

Hope you and DS are ok Valli.

Goodintentions

LW - I have some spoons for you I hope you enjoy your evening

Dawning - welcome!! You have made the first step. I think we all feel overwhelmed sometimes, and I definitely agree that when you have a more ordered, clutter-free environment it is easier to cope with other things. Good luck!

AJ - good luck with the move tomorrow You must be so excited

My sister is out of hospital already That is either because they are pleased with her recovery so far she was due to go home tomorrow) OR she has been making a nuisance of herself :rotfl:

We went into Swindon earlier, then Cirencester. Other than that we haven't done much. It has been miserable here today, but as I am not home I can't munch any frogs
DH is cooking dinner. I may give the kitchen a S&S later when we have finished eating.

Hugs & spoons to those that need them

ETA Hugs for Valli & DS. I hope you are ok

Maxonian

Had an utter carp week re flying.
I am just going to cook, then see if I can at least do a HHI or something useful.

Welcome Dawning - we're in the same county.

Hugs Valli - hope you are both ok

Will report back later

ETA Spoons for LW
