Its such a lovely day that I took the dogs for a long walk on the beach - its was wonderful, but a bit hard work with my naff foot on the sand, but even so well worth it.
Anyhow I'm very behind so will get up to the bedroom asap, I also have 2 mystery shop telephone calls to make (need to do this before kids home) and have to finish off tidying the utility cupboard, as I emptied it last night sorted it but still have ever potion and lotion imaginable lying around on the worktop.

Well I'm starting to be a bit more flexible :j My legs aren't aching as much now, but it could be that I've been sat on my bottom for the last hour playing games

My mum popped in on her way to the hairdressers so I popped to the post office en route with her but came home. Can't stand the smell in hairdressers...will probably explain why I haven't had my hair cut since November 2005!

Good luck at the vets Hopeless cook, hope it goes well.

I've done all my jobs after a slow start and i've even managed to study today. All I need to do now is pick DS up from school, then DD from choir, take to beavers and brownies and make 60 cakes for a cake sale at school for red nose day. I'll get my children to help with those though. Right, school pick up. xx

I'm not really following the lists but I have been fluttering. Living room cleaned well today. My daughter has had her day off today instead of Thursday, so her bedding is done. She's been sorting through her clothes and we've got two bags in the shed for recycling and we've taken two bags to the charity shop.

Went to a garden centre. The weirdest garden centre I've ever been to. Lots of random stuff for sale. It was like a parallel universe and it felt a bit spooky after a while so we left rather quickly! I was only looking for catmint and they said it was too early in the year.

Just got back and got all the washing in and folded and put away. My feet ache now and it's work tonight.

Bad day today,
I woke up this morning with the most horrific headache !! managed to get dd3 to school and then the day went down hill from their. Managed to get to doc's for blood test at 10.45 waitied 30 minutes then back home to pick DH up and then back to Doc's for the Dn ( he thought going with me would be to early for him!!!! sod the fact i feel like a blasted rubber ball at the moment) from the DN took DH to work 20 min drive away, then went to Cartridge world to sort out printer ink. Then i went on the hunt for a block for the bedroom curtain rail that is falling off!! 3 shops later with No sucess decided a new rail was called for. bought said rail not bad 10ft long £6,99 with all the fittings and hooks. Back home which by this time the House looked like a Blasted bomb had hit it as NO dailys done!! had a urgent mail to send DH work re a !!!!-up with his sickness that is being paid at the end of the month. as doing this i get a call from dd3 school, can i go and pick her up as she has been rather sick and feels unwell. Now home and managed to do daily's and i'm wacked OUT still feeling yuk and having to think about cooking the pending T for dd2 and DH before i get a call to go and collect dh from work about 8pm. suppose it could have been worst and been raining instead of a sunshining. Wishing that you all have had a better day than me???
ps Veg box arrived today as well but i got no suprises??
