    Morning,

    Been up half the night with babymoo. She had a temp and a rash :eek: did the glass test, and it didn't disappear. Then I couldn't remember which way round it was. Then she hurled all over her bedroom floor. Called NHS direct. Thankfully, by the time they called me back she was a bit more alert, and the rash on her chest was fading, so just left on her shoulders. Wouldn't you know it she's fine now...

    Chuffed with myself :-) and now for day two

    My sink is still shiny, my kitchen is still spotless, I did it in 15 minute burst, then went and did the bathroom for 5 minutes, had 15 minutes for me, then had 15 minutes potching about putting things back in homes, then the 27 throw away and then back for another 15 minutes in the kitchen.

    Up this morning swish and swiped the bathroom, kitchen had a swish and swipe too of my sparkly sink, living room currently has a two year old tornado in it so think today I will be going to buy a binder and some post it notes

    CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN LEVEL'S TO ME - I see you all writing them but Ive no idea what they are or for or why??

    Wow Sammy-Kaye! I needed sunglasses to look at that sink! Well done from another newbie!!

    Isn't it a good feeling when it's all spick and span like that (or do I need to get out more!). But - beware that others in your household will move things - I find myself moving them back so they all line up again - now I do need to get out!!

    Lots of healthy vibes to Bossymoo's little one and I do hope she is fine now. I hope all those feeling under the weather or down have a good Friday and that the weekend is a lot better for you. Special wishes to Vanilla, I hope you all had a settled night and that today gets you one step nearer to a new start. X

    Lazy here so far, cat, birds and our breakfast done, and one wash load just finished. Baby blackbirds at the table so far and I spotted a fast-flying smaller bird with a flash of greeny-yellow. Maybe a greenfinch, but it moved too fast!

    We hope to get a day out somewhere today, even if only just a garden centre (rain again, but sunny right now) and have a change. The place is not too bad and a S&S will suffice for one day!

    Warm wishes filtering your way and see you later. X

    Hi again! I've just looked at today's lists and can have a quiet day flying! No children's rooms and the spare bedroom was hoovered yesterday and I did drawers and dusted in there earlier in the week. This room is 'my' dressing/ironing/sewing/pottering room, so I keep it (mainly) tidy.

    Sun fully shining here now so another cuppa and in that shower!

    Catch you all later and, again, warm vibes coming your way.
