I hope the new people are good to you. I too have had suggestions about changing meds but I am on a bit of a level and am frightened of tipping the boat.
Bless him, he's just hoovering the bungalow; we've been outside and tidied the back garden a wee bit, and I've washed my dog-walking fleece, so no more woofy whiffs (for the time being):rotfl:
We're going to the theatre tonight, to see "The Madness of George III" so I'm not doing much more today, saving my spoons so that I can enjoy the play.;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

So did I. We spent many a Saturday night watching Dr Who and Jim'll fix it with our bacon, fried egg and croutons for tea!
Just finished work. House trashed by dh and children but they've had a ball. I've told them i'm on strike until THEY tidy up and if it's not tidied I'll be dumping the mess in their bedrooms and DH's study - pumpkin innards and all.

Yummy Leek onion bacon and sliced potato with cheese sauce made for tea.
Had a walk down the woods today and although it was muddy I loved the colours of the trees. A lady was collecting berries for to make sloe gin. I collected pine cones for DD as I found out they can replace fire lighters when dried out.

Evening! Anyone know where the week went?!!
Today I have replaced the headlight bulb on the driver's side of my car and the side light bulb on the passenger sideManaged to get a few loads of washing dry outside over the last couple of days and kitchen is looking pretty good. Downstairs all needs vacuuming but I can do that tomorrow.
Frodders – lovely to see you! Hope your wrist is a little better. I still do my 60 in 60s on a regular basis. I’m still waiting for the say when I can’t find 60 things to do but I’m guessing it won’t happen for a while!
Hi MuddersMy wrist isn't too bad thanks, but my elbow is playing up a bit now! And I'm waiting for the cold weather stiffness to kick in soon
How's your wrist?

I'm happy with this (not that I manage to complete it all ......... ever!!!)
Would you rather we did a week of upstairs and then a week of downstairs?
No thank you!
Do you like concentrating on a room or would you rather say hoover everywhere one day, wipe everywhere another day.
Errmmm - not sure! I think I prefer a room a day!
Are you up for some new challenges (these would be optional extras)

Thanks you all for hugs and stuff, welcomes home too, so nice to see familiar faces when times are parp. I've managed to pick up his man flu, not helpful. My friend bought me lunch out today including a much needed vino so enjoyed that. I got some of the sheds tidied out this afternoon, had a small snooze and did the grocery shop. I put some Christmas gifts on my card too, got all the tiny one in DPs extended family sorted (his step mothers nephews children... goodness knows how we even started buying for them) and Ms, couple of things for my DSs in what was left of the Sainsburys toy sale. Looked like someone had ram raided the shop!
Mojt congratulationsbet you're thrilled!
