OK, all I managed last night is:
Packing
Quality time with the OH.
And I'm happy with that.
Oh, I'm mistaken, we emptied the bins this morning and put them out for collection also.
Can't wait to see family and friends!!! Is it 9.40pm yet???? No....OK, I'll wait then.February wins: Theatre tickets0 -
Morning all,
Jo i've just checked in the shed and there are 10 boxes there so more than i thought. I'll pm you my phone number.
So far this morning i have
Made beds
2 x school runs
Sorted rabbits
S&S Bathroom
Collected dirty laundry
I'm crossing one thing off my work list and then doing one flying job. Be back later with an update.0 -
This will have gone out of my head by then, so please accept good luck vibes now, and put them by for Wednesday.:DI've got an interview next Wednesday!
Jojo many thanks for all the info. On the hossy front, Mr LW is going to help me draft a letter. Re the labrets - I think they'll work for me; now it's been explained, I see how they work (gods, I can be so dumb at times). We'll have to try and get into the pub I can no longer get up the steps to, when the bikers meet, one of them is bound to know of a good place to ask for advice/info - Mr LW can ask them for me.;)
:mad: at bus drivers failing to stop if there are no adults waiting - I'd have thought they'd be on shaky ground there; it's not that easy to tell someone's age as you whizz past them, I'd have thought.:cool: I hope Minion gets on OK at school with her crutches - they sound cool!:D
OK - this morning I've done HHYoga and made the lasagne for dins (it just needs throwing in the oven at 11:30).
Now need to see to my email (mainly online surveys usually) and get some lists under way for our Kent break - I need a packing list and a route at the very least - for the first I can snaffle a template from our back-up flash drive, and I'll dig out Autoroute for the second.
We need to go grocery shopping when Mr LW finishes his shift at 14:30, too.:think: So that's another list I need to check and update.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
morning all :hello:
good luck Julie
Mrs LW I cant begin to know how you feel, but I have a good idea having had health 'issues' in the last 5 years. I very rarely manage to do the list, but that is no help to you if you have OCD over lists.
Yes make a list of questions for your GP and you could take it in to the surgery and leave it for your GP to read through and maybe write the answers down for you and be ready to answer questions when you visit.
I think it may help if you get together a little pack of good memories from your doggy visitors and nice days out with Mr LW and maybe when you are very tired and low Mr LW can put on some 'get a grip' music and you could remind yourself of how valued you are.
Finally DON'T GIVE UP
Been fighting a virus but made bread, turned 1Kg of carrots into 4 bottles of carrots, made something strange with courgettes but DH liked it, loaded DW and forgot to put it on:oSue

RE: Flying. Not made a very impressive start back considering I've been off work this week... but needed to take some time out to de-stress. So have read 1 book, and just starting on another. Just have to post some parcels now though and will then try to catch up past 2 days perhaps just Levels 1/2.
