    Evening all, haven't had a very productive evening although all I have done is just potter around doing the odd thing or two. I even forgot to feed the poor birds in the garden this evening, so will have to do a quick dash in the morning so they don't have to wait too long for their breakfast.

    Did put a load of washing on and fold up the clean, dry, washing from the airer. Will put it away when I go up to bed. Tomorrow must remember to strip the bed and put the clean bedding on :D

    Might have to make another apple crumble as we have just polished off the second half of one I made yesterday and it was glorious - I really enjoyed it :D

    Morning All

    DH has gone to work and taken DS with him so I got woken up along the way. Not sure what the plan of action is for today yet - I know DD has got her friend coming over for a sleepover later but I may be taking my mate to the scrapstore this morning, we'll have to see.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    At work until 3 today, but made a start on LR last night, and kitchen still clean.

    Although, MIL and FIL are taking the kids to nursery so who knows what I might find...

    Usually it's just MIL, and I always get delayed when FIL comes too. This morning it was his steamed up windscreen, lol. I gave him some interior mist repellant but he started doing my car (which I did last week) so I was 10 min late setting off. MIL was saying "will you just let her go please!!!" haha. They are good 'uns.

    Better crack on, will post again at tea time when I've had chance for a couple of hhc.

    Apparently DD and her friend are cooking a 3 course meal for us tonight as part of their chef's badge - that should be fun!

    Anyone fancy a HHC @ 8?

  • I think I'm going to like it here.

    My house is generally tidy but I feel like it gets on top of me. To concentrate on an area every day just might help me feel on top of it and in control.

    I'll try it out today.

    Honey Bear Thanks for that:A - unfortunately, I can't get in touch with the owner to ask - my guests come via the local agent, I don't have any direct contact with the owners. I do know Mary's owner's on holiday abroad til the weekend, but I'll email the agent, and mention it.

    I shall still be following the thread, but I feel a bit of a fraud if I post daily when I'm not doing proper Flying.;) I did loads last week, so I don't think the bungalow will turn into a pig-sty if I only S&S this week.:o

    I'm going to take the little lass for a walk fairly soon (as opposed to her just going out into the garden) while it's still light, I think.;)

    Have you thought about putting those doggy pants on her? If she will tolerate that it might help? Also there are the absorbent pads for dogs. I would definitely talk to the co-ordinator as there must be something you can do x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
