Morning All
Well I've done a HHC in my BR so I've filled a bag full of rubbish and my bed with stuff. I need to get sorted for work now though so it'll probably all get dumped back on the floor tonight as I've got a meeting.
Dancemum - pleased to hear DH's home
Have a good day all

Dancemum, I hope your DH is feeling a bit better today.
mrs-moneypenny you know what to put on your Christmas list now: unbreakable bowls!Breast Cancer awareness month - give em a squeeze.. OH said they feel fine to him, and Dot is happy with them too!
LOL pigpen! :rotfl::rotfl:
Almost all possible flying has already been already done here for today - i.e. just S&S of the kitchen and bathroom and some general tidying round, plus I have several loads going in the WM - as Alan the decorator will have painted every internal door by the time he leaves this afternoon: undercoat on some and gloss on the ones he started yesterday. He had to move a bookcase (too heavy for me) in order to paint the back of one door, so I took the opportunity to hoover up the dead flies' graveyard underneath it!
DH has gone off to work happy for the first time in months. His line manager is being very helpful. His regional manager isn't at all pleased with the outcome of the medicals but will have to lump it!
And by chance the union rep was in the office yesterday and DH was able to clarify his position re future employment / redundancy / retirement. Things are looking up at last, and he hopes to move into a different department or area as soon as the right job comes up. I have thrown a big stick for the BD and hope it will stay away for good. :T
Thanks again to all of you for your support through difficult times. You may not realise just how much you've kept me sane, with the lists to give me something to aim for every day and your stories that made me laugh out loud when I needed it most.
