    Morning all!

    WM on already, day off work for me so I will see how much I can get done today! I'd be happy with just getting the washing done and dried outside - easily pleased eh! Will look at the lists and see what else I can catch up on - off to see Mary Berry tonight!

    Have a good day everyone - might check in later!

    WM is on (as always)

    I'm going to do 15mins gardening a day to protect my dodgy back.Clematis already has leaves on it. Shoots have appeared on the peony and weeds are beginning to thrive. Miss Muddy Paws enjoys our time outside together, she runs up to me and ticks my legs for me to chase her.

    Lots of phone calls to make this morning and a few paper work HHP to do.

    Sorry about the hamster juliejim
    Hope you enjoy Marry Berry tonight Sagaris
    LW I think your next doggy visitors arrive today. Hope they are well behaved.
    Thinking of Toots, has anyone heard from her.

    Back later.

    Morning all, been lovely here so have spent most of my time in the garden. I did get the kitchen scrubbed yesterday and plan on the livingroom today plus a bit more gardening (some of my seeds are up already:D).

    Todays list
    livingroom
    spend an hour in the garden
    lift meds
    get a bag of coal
    bank

    Right best kick the boys out for the bus.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    Brrr a bit colder today. Just filled in an online application form for littleys NHS card for her school trip, have to get a passport photo done after school before we go to Newcastle.

    Fed the cat, investigated what looks like a leak coming from upstairs *rolls eyes* have orange water type marks all across the front door/cloakroom toilet ceiling, will need to get them out again, there's been quite a few snaggy things for them to sort.

    Going to take a few things upstairs, make the beds, make my sarnie for work, set the DW away, take littley to school then get ready for work.

    Laters folks xx

    I'm procrastinating with the kitchen floor (again!). I've found that when I own up on here, I pluck up the courage and do it, so there's hope it'll get

    They're arriving tomorrow, about lunchtime, so I have today to make sure the bungalow's up to scratch.:D The good news is, I had a mad fling yesterday and finished ALL my Flying lists for this week!I just had a look at today's official list, and it's all been covered, so that's a Day Off for me!:p I still have my emails to check (for online surveys wanting doing) and I'm debating whether to plug on with something off the Toots list or have a time-out. I think the Toots list will win.:cool:
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
