Soothing vibes to all those suffering the BD - had a nasty bout myself 2 years ago. BD almost squashed the life out of me. Hope you have lots of support IRL xx0 -
Kitchen largely done. Floor still needs mopping and the oven pride has been bought but not yet administered.
I got an email from Harrods re santas grotto booking dates. Unless you spend £10,000 a year you can't book until 18 September. Pfttt! I'll get the slot on 1st November then. Seriously unimpressed.
Found my bank card so at least I have accomplished something worthwhile today!

LW let the housework slide for a bit and look after yourself please!!!!! Your posts have been getting a bit more blah over the past couple of weeks and you havent been sounding as upbeat and cheerful as you usually do. I know you dont need to hide anything with us, but Im going to get angry with you
if you keep doing all the lists pretty much all the time. Your health is more important than a clean house! And whats this nonsense about feeling ashamed???? dont you DARE think that way, there is nothing to be ashamed about!!!!

Definitely - but thanks, pigpen. He's in age 5-7 clothes, depending on the item/shop.
Hugs, LW. Hope you are feeling better now.
I've just evicted a rather larger than comfortable 8-legged useful creature. Well, it can find it's food outside our house now. Was its own fault for letting itself be spotted by me. Yuck!
DS2 and I enjoyed cuddling up on my bed and watching G-Force (no DVD player downstairs). We even had popcorn. Time for an early night, I think. I brought the bedding in as it's supposed to rain tomorrow. Might do a bit more of the bookcase, but that's it then for today.0
