    I was rubbish last night, as my back was aching. Oh well.

    OH put the washing on for me, at least, so it was ready to lift out to dry when I got home and that means we have clean bed clothes ready for the changeover this weekend :)

    Completely forgot to get stamps, and gave up on the Ikea idea (also to do with train timing, didn't fancy waiting around for half an hour). So, off to Ikea again tonight.

    On the plus side, I put away the dry laundry this morning, and some clean dishes too. :D

    Hugs to all who need them!!

    xxxx

    Off to catch up now.

    More dry washing put away and more wet washing out..
    Phoned education board and no-one seems to know where we're at with DD moving. So looks like i'll be doing a 160 mile trip thursday and friday. At least she will be there for the first day and she is so excited. :D

    MrT rang and he will be an hour late so that will probably be 12 and i need to have DS2 at an eye appointment at 12.20 :mad:

    Right dw next and i'll clear the kitchen table, i'll get the kids up and fed too.

    juliejim i hope it goes well today.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    I'm washed and dressed the WM is on, made my bed cleared the floordrobe into the washing basket from various rooms, turned all the lights off! I'm going for an HHC at 9.45 if anyone is wanting to keep me company. I'll be starting with putting things out of the livingroom into their right rooms again!

    Morning

    I've been through the whole house today and I've got two loads of washing on the line, including the bedding. Been to the vets and I'm still treating the cat every hour (16 times a day).

    Hope everyone's OK.
