    I managed to do a bit of work when the Tiny Terror went to sleep. He's awake again now trying to walk across the keyboard.

    I've done another load of washing and put it in the dry buddy and the radiators and airing cupboard. I've fed Tiny T and de pooed his litter tray and picked up Ds2 from school.

    I was going to do a HHC after my coffee but neveah is on her way over so i'll do it later on.

    .....problem with all these jobs that need doing is that its starting to depress me, I'm sure I'm starting the change but blood tests say otherwise however, flushes and insomnia are par for the course now and because I'm not sleeping I struggle through the day with motivation.

    Sorry that has nothing to do with flying but I needed to offload it :{

    You can off load about anything hun. Lots of us are at that sort of age so feel free to share. Have you read up on the perimenopause? So glad I did, stopped me thinking I was going mad!

    :T Well done and hope you have success.

    DS2 has just been phoned and he has the job at waitrose he went for :j Very proud of him, 10.5 hours a week which is just about right and the shifts fit in very well with school.

    Still battling with paperwork for tonight. Going to wip up a quick cake and then do another HH on it.

    Just had a scam email from American Airlines aswell.

    Thanks for the welcome :) I look forward to getting to know you all.

    Back from work and school pick up. Need to pick DS1 up from Chess Club and drop DD at Rainbows then I can get started on today's list while sorting dinner.

    Kitchen's all done and sparkly.:T I even cleaned the window and door glass! So the lower pane in the back door is all ready for Dilly to create nose art.:D Mr LW did all the high places, and we had it done pretty swiftly, really.:o

    I'll see if I can blag him into helping me dust some of the lounge in a bit (tomorrow's room, on my own lists) because I can't lift the very large dragons at the moment, even using both hands.:(

    If we can get the bits done where they are - he can lift the dragons up while I dust - it'll be a whole lot better than just dusting round them.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Defrost freezer and meal plan
    HHI

    Freezers a bit full to be defrosting, but I am trying to run down the second one so I can switch it off. So it will get defrosted then. Definitely will meal plan this week, have all week off and tots in nursery tomorrow so should get organised. Still need to get some curtains and a light fitting for my bedroom, so that is my errand for tomorrow.

    Been to Skipton today, the kiddies loved the castle, and we are all worn out!

    DD is much better. Thanks boodle and dusty. She is 15 so was more worried about how she looked than what had made her blotchy & itchy :cool: The antihistamine - T*sco own brand - can't remember the active ingredient but whatever it was it did the trick, she slept for 3 hours as well. Now there are only a few sore looking patches, the rest has disappeared. And she was well enough to go for her check up at the dentist ;)

    Di3t Ch3f delivery arrived and put away neatly in boxes. DD is not being very supportive but DS is. I've told them they can do more of the cooking now, especially DS who isn't studying or working.

    One load of washing dried on the line, DW just finished.

    Thanks Dusty - will investigate that later :]]

    Welcome and Hi to all the newbies

    Today I have done everything on the list except the ironing which will be started later [after Tea], DH helped to defrost the freezer - boiled hot water and we both attacked it with knives [the freezer that is!!] Nice and shiny now and 2 clear shelves so the garage freezer contents will be put in the gaps and then we can turn off that freezer and save some money - just had the Leccy bill hehe
