    Winchelsea - good to see you posting - you are so right about the committment thing- and a little at a time. Well done on your first batch of bread since the funeral!

    Hugs Winchelsea, do as others say be kind to yourself and well done on getting the bread made.
    seafarers_wife, DD and SIL are on their way home after having an enjoyable scan. Can't wait to hear the news.
    polkadot, make sure you get plenty of rest, I remember how much energy a babe can take from you.

    I am still cleaning the kitchen floor a bit at a time. It is a marmoleum floor which is more work than I ever thought it would be.

    Sorry i've not had time to read the thread but continued love and hugs to those that need it xxx

    Today was turned tipsy turvy with an unexpected trip to orthadontist trip fro DD. Still, managed to get everything done and have managed everyday things like washing, dog walk, s/s ing but really need to do some cleaning. DS has a friend round and we're going out for a belated birthday tea for him. Should be back by 630 and hope to do an hour then.

    Hope you're all having an ok week xx
  • Well on the positive side today I managed to have a chilli in the slow cooker by 8.30am. I have managed to do 2 washloads, most of which is now dry. I managed to have my normal walk despite DS being on a 7am pick up today (I did it in 2 halves, coming back inbetween to make sure DS had got up.)

    I have made a chicken tikka and spicy rice dish to take to S/W tonight (taster night).

    I have been to work and my book group.

    So why do I feel that I haven't achieved anything today?

Tea is on, just the bathroom to s&s from yesterday & a few more bits of paperwork to file/shred.
