    Rooms upstairs done as far as I can get them, just need DH to dismantle proper bed and move things to loft so I can bring rest of gym equipment in. I don't think this will happen today. Hobby comes first today as it's a rare day off.

    I don't have permission from DD to get rid of her stuff so have shoved it in a carrier bag for her to go through. She is a bit of a hoarder me thinks.

    Just having the obligatory cuppa and will then cut the grass.

    Catch you all later.

    Hi Soappie and welcome back! Lovely to 'see' you as we've all been missing your posts. Can't imagine anyone thinking worse of you. You've explored different options and chosen the most suitable solution to deal with the issues. It's taken me lots longer to take control. :(

    Well done, Rita. Sounds like it's been a fairly one-sided relationship and he has a lot more to lose than you.

    WM x1 has just finished and I'll deal with that next, as the weather is still nice (have at least one more to do)
    Lidl shop done and put away (stopped off for a nice coffee on the way home and sat in a lovely garden while drinking it :D)
    Kitchen S&S done
    late breakfast munched

    Next:
    [STRIKE]laundry[/STRIKE]
    HHC with DS2 in his room
    some HHCs in Dining Room of Doom
    [STRIKE]feed DS2 a late lunch[/STRIKE]
    do tea
    HHC financial paperwork

    ETA Have also cleaned cat's litter tray and emptied/cleaned bathroom bin.

    Have a great Sunday, everyone. x

    Rita: you go girl! Blokes don't get it when we get upset about these things, so keep your cool then he can't deflect the issue by saying its about your attitude... You'll soon work out if he's a keeper. Men sometimes need to come with health warnings, lol

    Dot finally down for a nap.. feeding her was a lot less painful she was forced into a pair of fleece mittens.. she claws lumps of flesh off my chest and face and boobs without them and wrapping her in a sheet makes her hysterical

    DD3 and DD4 made to sort their stuff from their trip.

    Now I have a trip to OH's mums too look forward to.. I want to send them all and stay at home by myself if I am honest.. I really do not want to spend the time there.. maybe I could persuade OH to stay in a travelodge or something.. I hate feeling like I cannot be myself or be comfortable and if he thinks I am spending the whole week there he is very much mistaken! I want to at least spend some time without the other children and feel peaceful and relaxed in my own home.. and of course AF is due on Friday so if she turns up on time we aren't going anywhere for at least a couple of days! I have a bee on my beret can you tell? ;)

    Best go sort the kitchen as best as my incredibly sore ankle will allow!

    Afternoon all

    :wave: Hello Soappie

    Got up at 4.30am this morning to do a car boot, the car was full to bursting when we left and only came home with 1 1/2 bags unsold :j

    Feeling absolutely shattered now though, so have done a quick tidy up and just about to put a load of washing on.

    Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend.

    Have done the easy jobs (and amended list in previous post), so only the RoD and HHC with DS2 left for the moment. Going off in search of the Guag, which is trying to hide...

    Yaay!

    My dining room is finished, just need help putting mirror back and my new cabinet is coming tomorrow!

    Heavens have opened. Or they've got a very big leak, at least...

    I have also taken the enclosure off the trampoline, moved said contraption into garage room, and put enclosure back on. So I have my conservatory back? Still toys everywhere though...

    [STRIKE]Sort August birthdays[/STRIKE]
    Paint shed door.
    [STRIKE]Sort out HL fund
    Hand wash my dress[/STRIKE]
    Get rid of bed base
    [STRIKE]Emulsion dining room [/STRIKE]and downstairs loo
    [STRIKE]Reclaim conservatory![/STRIKE]

    Am getting there, bed base is halfway gone, which doesn't make any sense, but what I mean is, I have a plan. Shed door will need to wait until its dry. Loads of sun here today, but when it has rain, by god has it rained, still, the last bucket of spuds won't need watering...

    Tea break number three in order, then I will finish conservatory...

    Not until I get gangrene! The one on my knee is now also icky.. and I have 1 on my back and 3 on my left arm.. I feel like crap anyway as I've had man flu all week.. I seen to have a dodgy tummy as well now.. which I am hoping isn't related to the bug bites.. I hate insects.. off to Raid the entire house and garden.. evil demons!

    DW on again
    Table almost cleared
    sheep cooked for OH

    Dot back up and in a slightly better mood.. now, if I can get the other 5 to go for a nap ;)
