'Ello all *waves, a tad feebly*
Vanilla (((HUG))) sorry to hear it's all gone pear-shaped for you - hope things improve soon.
I shall haul my purple skirt out of the wardrobe on Friday - I did light a candle but forgot to put my initials on it (or more likely did it wrong as the brainfog's bad lately) so I must go and light another.:oLast night I dreamt I was driving in a unfamiliar town and I ended up at a flylady's house where there were a few more flyladies. They helped me plan a route home.Lost another 1 1/2lbs this week, so that's 32 1/2 all together now (must update siggy)Was hoping for a wee bit more as have been extra super good, been running and Zumba-ing lots, but I'll take it anyway! And this morning I found my collarbones :rotfl:
Wretched left shoulder is worse than ever today, so once again, I won't be lifting the large Dragons up to dust.:( I just hope that something shows up in this flippin' blood test tomorrow. We have a stupidly early appointment, so that Mr LW can take me, then deposit me on the sofa with a blanket before he goes on to work.:o
I need to make a loaf today, and pizza for dins, too; so I'm glad all I have left to do Flying-wise is dust the lounge.:DIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Afternoon all
I've got two loads of washing on the line, including my bedding. Much brighter than yesterday but still a cold wind so I'm not banking on it drying completely.
I've cleaned right through today to make up for not doing much yesterday. Didn't feel much like it to start with but it didn't take too long once I got going and it warmed me up a bit. Then I watched Corrie while I had my breakfast. Made me cry a bit, on the 29th of this month it will be one year since I lost my lovely springer0 -

Well done! :T
I've done most of the living room and got the towels drying on the line. Off to do an hour in the garden now as the sun is shining.
Vanilla - hugs sweetie, you have been here many time before so you will get through to the other side xThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Afternoon everyone..
Slowly surfacing from this darn illness, unfortunately the torn rib muscles are giving me a lot of pain. Yes I think I have to give in and make an appointment with the Dr and get that chest xray organised a.s.a.p. I just want it to go away now, it's been just over 8 weeks now since I first got the virus and two, or possibly three weeks, since I tore two of my rib muscles. I'm going to rattle the amount of painkillers I'm taking each day..:rotfl:
Anyway I am doing as much flying as I can when I'm not in too much painToday I cleared out my cutlery drawer and threw a rubbish sack load of carpe away from the drawer
Now to clean the cupboard under the dresser drawers, might do that tomorrow or the next day..
Loads of hugs Vanilla xxx

Hello Flylady friends,
Work was frustrating - computer was dead so I couldn't do my Mr T online shop.
I have tackled the kitchen hotspot which was threatening to take over my breakfast bar. It looks much better. I've made lunch for myself and DS2. Still no phone call from his nasty letter writing head of year.
Another of the paddles has broken off the w/m. This is the third time so I'm sure there is something behind the drum. I can't make up my mind wether to order a BIG shiny new one like Pigpen's or to get someone out to look at it - our DIY repairs clearly aren't working.
I'm going to shut my eyes for 30 mins now as I've got another late pick up tonight. HHS - a new set of initials?0 -
