    Morning all - am I the first one up lol!!

    Get 3 laods washed yesterday - ironin g had to wait though - our eldest dog needed the vets last night, she seemed to be in pain and screamed if DH tried to pick her up to help her in the car and really wasn't herself. I always panic if she's poorly as she had a tumour removed from her jaw last year (along with the teeth) so on one side she has nothing on her upper jaw. She was so good and didn't complain at all - another reason why beagles are used in lab experiments!

    Anyway we went along yesterday, heart in mouth, but the vet said he was satisfied it's nothing sinister at all, just brusing or pulled muscles around her breastbone. A painkilling injection and some to bring home for a couple of days and she's a lot better this morning - why do I worry lol!

    So - back to the grindstone today! At least the weather is good, might get up to 28C today apparently? Good day to get the towels out and washed methinks! Also our bedroom carpet could do with a good hoover - might get that in today as well.

    Have a good day everyone, enjoy this weather while it lasts!
    :j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

    Morning All

    Well I'm full of cold and feeling pretty lousy but hey. DS has football tonight but apart from that not a lot happening so I may get some jobs done or I may just collapse in a heap.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Morning all, Rhys woke me here at 5am because his blanket fell off his bed. Then i just couldn't get back to sleep (stupid cold). :mad:

    Anyway DD up and ready for her big day at City Hall, i'm so looking forward to it and instead of her heading back to school after it, me and OH are taking her for lunch as a threat. :D

    Plan tonight is to catch up with the flying and some sleep so it will be an early night for me. The house isn't looking too bad plus i'm at home most of thursday and friday.

    Hope everyone's good and i'll see you later hopefully with an updated list.
    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

    One load of washing done, second in the machine - hopefully will have time to get both of them out on the line before I leave for work which will empty the washing basket with the exception of delicates which I'm going to wash tonight after Fat Club.

    About to empty the bins too, house is looking very nice at the moment and I want to keep it that way :D
