    Not managed to score much off my list yet but the place looks better! Have had to clean all my tiles/small appliances to get rid of the crap hubby had covered them in, doing my best not to smack him in the head over it! Pretty annoyed to be honest.

    Anyhow, just getting on with it, plus looking for a graduate job - very time consuming!

    Flipping legs are still awol, this is some flare up this time:mad: Doesn't Stills Disease/Fibro realise I don't have time for them!!! My Nurse is coming for my reveiw in a bit. Dearest Darling DH has 'done' the kitchen, dining area and utility a treat.

    Later on DH and I have to go to the Post Office, Butchers and Mr T's for some shopping. Since the liquid drought has returned I am probably going to get wet drawers in my charriot, some how it always manages to find a way to seep in somewhere:rotfl:

    Yesterday, I drove the food processor from my kitchen perch and I made some cookies, chocolate chip muffins and an apple cake. Some for the freezer and some for the tin.:T

    Afternoon all, done most of the list - just the bin which I'm planning to empty after dinner.

    Raining here, so washing draped round indoors. I still went walking but got wet and it's not that warm.

    It was so lovely over the weekend too.....

    Afternoon all! I'm in again this week after fading away at the end of last week :o

    Had a very productive Sunday though with everyone's bedding washed and dried on the line over the course of the day, and some weeding done. I have bluebells in the wild area of my garden :j Not quite as grand as it sounds as the area in question is a strip in the front which I have been [STRIKE]too damn lazy to clear[/STRIKE] purposely cultivating as a wild area. Nevertheless I am pretty pleased.

    I have been fluttering this morning so need to get whizzing now. Thank you dusty for the lists and juliejim for last week :A

    Mr T shop due later so I need to wipe over and sort the fridge and cupboards first. I might also join flyingfresian and macpep1 under the sink :p

    Cuddly calming vibes aplenty for the cyclingyorkie family

    Jojo there is no way on this earth that there is not enough of you in that girl that she won't overcome current influences, strength and love to you in the meantime x

    Morning flyers.
    I'm ready and raring to go despite being up until almost 3am in pain :(
    My doc thinks the lining of my stomach is inflamed, So you can imagine the pain, it's like a combination between heartburn indigestion and early labour pains! :( The gaviscon didn't even touch the sides, so if I'm not better by Weds then I will go back to the doctors.

    Please keep persevering until you get an answer to this. Ask about Helicobacter pylori which is easy to treat with antibiotics. Do not suffer in silence

    Done school run..sorted OH another docs appointment...still not better although now he is having severe stomach pains so doctor has rung him and wants to see him at 12.

    Hope he is ok
    back from stripping.
    i found the height chart the inlaws had for my DH under the lining paper, i assume they had the bathroom papered in '68 as nov of that year was the last height recorded. it quite bought a lump to my throat.

    work now then my lists
    'see' you all later

    That is lovely. I love the history of houses. We have written on the family room wall but need to repaint soon. I do have a wood height chart from when they were small. I'm thinking of photographing the wall and writing it all back on after.

    Work done. Just having lunch and then away to Mr M as we have no fruit and very little other food.

    Well I've done nowt from my list (and Mr F still hasn't done the dishes!!) but I have done a load of washing and hung it up. I might not get time to fly much today as I sold a LOAD of craft stuff last night in one of the FB groups, and have a vast number of parcels to prep and send :D

    Hi Ladies

    Was just having a sneaky look from work and realised my post yesterday didnt go through :(.

    So I am in (after the paid stuff) so thanks to JJ for last week and Dusty for this. No doubt I will get home and the breakfast dishes will still be in the sink and dinner wont be done despite DH being at home all day. Must try not to let it bug me :D.

    Looks like we have some pain improving and healing vibes need sending out, along with salt for the slug beasties and congratulations to piggers for managing to put all that shopping away. I would probably still be doing it a week later :rotfl:.

    Back later this evening :wave:
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!
