    Well on a bit of a roll - stairs and landing now done - de webbed dusted and vaccumed - feeling guilty about spiders as s few went up in vacuum :( I dont mind seeing watching or picking them up and I really appreciate the job they do but determined to attack the cobwebs this time......I am sure plenty got away :) Quick cheese sandwich then onwards and upwards

    Kitchen sorted mopped and whatnot :) DW and WM on. Now to tackle the living room - after that only the dining room of doom,conservatory of clutter and bomb site bedroom and the room we laughingly call the office:eek: - DD2 bedroom done earlier this week and DD1 bedroom can wait a while............... till her next visit home. Remarkably the porch dumping ground I tackled a couple of weeks ago and made such a big deal over, has stayed clutter free - RESULT:D Then its outside - 4 sheds full to bursting, a greenhouse to clear and rest of garden to put to bed for winter:) Not going to achieve all this in one day BTW.

    Dont know where the sudden surge of motivation and energy has come from...can only think recent op has sorted the problem that has dragged on for last 3 years and I am at last feeling the benefits . Long may it last:):)

    LR now done - vacuum and dusted and EVERYTHING removed that doesnt belong in there.......lets see how long that lasts. Bit of down time now I think then its very quick basic tea - sausage mash and beans:) Planning a late T*sco shop tonight after DD2 home from school trip and we have had all the babble and a million photos from that:rotfl::rotfl:

    What a miserable old day here :( Will soon be cheered up though as bread making smells will waft through house - OH is on a baking day which is great but kitchen will look like a bomb site afterwards!

    Turned out to be a very lazy day - sometimes you just need it. Also discovered that there are some very unpleasant people who lurk around on these threads - hope the powers that be remove one in particular..........

    A few weeks ago I decided to 'clear out' a great number of threads/diaries that I followed on here - reason was two fold 1) spending too much time reading them and 2) some where just too painful to follow..............so these last 2 weeks what have done - subscribed to a whole lot more:rotfl::rotfl:. Bit of fresh blood and fresh ideas and I am being very strict abou the time I spend reading them :)
    This one
    caught my eye and I was sorely tempted but think its just a little too far for us at the moment - had it been August I could have probably managed it as I dont work in August but pressures of family life and work means I have decided to cheer on the sidelines and wish the people who have signed up the very best of luck. I will follow with interest :)

    A farce is developing over my re location travel expenses - wont explain all yet but email I got from someone who I thought was my boss asked me where I worked before and where was I based now...............er the place you decided to close and move to the place I work now.............I am still lost for words

    Ended up at Out of Hours Surgery in A&E at midnight last night - will spare you the details but after much deliberation and poking and prodding all decided it wasnt menigitis or a stroke:eek: but a very bad migraine attack. Sent home at 2am with more drugs to try. Spent all of today in bed just now coming round. Decided not to try the medication as they all sounded too powerful..........side effect bloomin alarming.So left in peace in quiet in dark room seems to have done trick.

    All a bit scary made worse as it was excatly 18years to the day my mother died - we share a birthday so I am now officially one day older than my mum ever was........a very strange feeling
