            I am in. Lovingly polishing my shiney new worktops
 What do you hate about it Pollybear?
 I hate it because I haven't got my dog any more (and it's not practical to get another dog - anyway, I don't want any other dog, I want my Polly dog). Walking on your own is pretty boring and although I do try to say "good morning" to other people, a lot of them look at you like you're a nutter 
 Ignore me, I'm just a misery, just let me whinge about it!
 Enjoy your lovely new worktops 0 0

            Didn't get much done today thanks to the dizziness! 
 However I did get a rubber carpet brush I ordered to get into the corners and remove dog hair - the tiny bit I tested worked well! I have the crevice tool on the Dyson but this seems to work better - and quicker! I really wanted it for the car but will see how I get on with it.
 Back to work tomorrow hopefully, and flying!:j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

            Morning All
 Busy nights today and tomorrow - I'll be home for about 45 mins tonight, just time to walk the dog and possible get changed then I'll be home for just over an hour tomorrow night and I need to sort tea in that time too so don't think a lot will be getting done. Just about to get up and wash the dishes and do another HHI then get the kids up.
 Have a good day all

            Morning all, seems DD isn't feeling great so she's off school. DS1 should be back to school today but it will depend what he's like when he gets up. BIL seems to have got the bug from DS2 so looks like it's gonna get around..
 I've woke with a massive headache so i'm gonna grab some tablets in a minute and hopefully it doesn't turn into anything else.

            Morning everyone x
 I'm up and ready for work with a healthy breakfast inside me. I've refilled the budgie's seedpot and written a cheque for the gas bill - bill & cheque are now in my bag and I'll call at the Post Office on my way home tonight to get that paid.
 Think I'll leave myself a note to remind me to fill in my part of the Student Finance renewal form tonight- before DS starts to panic Bet that is more than HHP!!! Bet that is more than HHP!!!
 Hi-ho hi-ho it's off to work I go.
 Have a good day lovely ladies
