Aw thankyou youngmummy and Lame Wolf.....that was my first ever HHC....thankyou for joining me. How did it go?
I also brought in the recycling sack from the shed (has to go out for the bin men tonight) and did a recce of the bungalow looking for anything to go in it.:o
I'm up to speed with the spare room, too - cobwebs and dust all gone, crates of stores all tidy, so I don't need to worry about Flying tomorrow.;) We don't even have a spare bed, let alone bedding for it, so that's not an issue here, the room is just used for storage.:D
And I've had an email...... little Dilly the Westie wants to come and stay from 24th to 28th November.:T She's a real sweetheart, it'll be lovely to have her back again.:oIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
There is a really strange fog around here, have been watching it come in off the sea and can virtually see it closing in around us.
Anyway...I am back from my travels to Germany last week, I am quite tired and missed DH terribly. I don't mind normally for work but Germany is a place we go and share together, even the first morning at the hotel I turned around to discuss the breakfast options and found my room mate insteadNow I am back I am determined to get back on the flying-wagon.

Hello everyone. Thanks to kazwookie for the lists.
I've Been to work this morning and then tackled a 5 mile training walk - it felt good.
I've decluttered a bag to the charity shop. I need to cook tea now. DS1 has a work trial tonight. I have to take him and pick him up at 11. I hope I can stay awake!
No work tomorrow so I hope to make some headway with the lists.
I'll say bye but am throwing a stick for LW's BD and anyone else who is is being visited by the BD before I press submit.0 -

Decluttered mumble pounds in the salon after Minion was battered by the physioterrorist for over half an hour this afternoon.
Felt guilty as I could see it was a difficult session for her, but had to keep the usual perkiness going.
She's refused to go to her father's tonight on the grounds of having too much homework (he is NOT happy [shrugs shoulders like I care when he expects me to wait in all afternoon & evening for when he eventually turns up or shows up early and grumbles she isn't ready]) but I think it's really her back hurts too much and she didn't want to get on his motorbike tonight.
So she is under the care of the lovely next door neighbour with strict instructions to only open the door if the house is on fire and there are 10 firemen and a big red appliance knocking on it with an axe.
However, her hair looks great and mine looks more in keeping with the age my head thinks I am, not the age I was beginning to resemble :whistle:.
At least that means less hair spiders to pull out of the shower drain _pale_I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
Thanks for the new thread Kaz Im in again. Just the dailies done today as its my voluntary job day.
Welcome to the newbies. Hugs and spoons where needed.0 -
