OH is off to London today and I'll be joining him tomorrow, so I have lists coming out of my ears for stuff that has to be done by the time I jump on the train tomorrow. I've already spent a HH moving stuff from one room to another so that things are mostly in the right places, and apart from that I'll be 'Off Liste' today.

Hugs all round and High 5 to Bossy Moo's Littlies.

I would say "morning", but it's afternoon already....just having a quick lurk and a cuppa before I actually work out what I have accomplished this morning :D:D

Need some company to motivate me for some ironing.....I keep seeing from Monday.....I brought in the ironing board from the Utility telling myself I could do the ironing while waiting for my delivery to come, but I managed to convince myself everything else was more pressing :o:o

I have to get DS at 1, anyone up for HHI at 12.30? That way I can't back out!:rotfl:

Lamewolf, is there any chance at all that this setback is temporary? I was going to ask you to do a HH with me today, but in the circumstances that felt wrong, so I went and had my hair done and did a bit of essential household shopping instead. I'll do some for you if it would help cheer you up.

Aww, bless you, it's always a bit hit-and-miss with Flying when Mr LW's wfh as he was yesterday.:o Today I've done most of my assigned Flying (the bathroom) - just have to finish off the loo - I have a load of vinegar in there to combat the limescale at present. I've got some membership paperwork to do too, then I can post that off when I take Dylan out.;)

ETA I also have to make a chocolate mousse for tonight's dessert, and some cakes for Mr LW's lunchbox.

I need to fit in HH on the WiiFit (I'm reduced to a very few exercises now, but I refuse to not do any at all), plus my Brain Training; and I have some 'puter maintenance to do at some stage - my pc is running like a dog; and I don't mean a Greyhound!:D

Arrgghh, it's all too much!!:cool::D

As for the pain/lack of movement in my joints - hopefully it's just a flare; yesterday was the first time I've not been able to lift the saucepan at all when making Shepherd Spy, though. It's like every time I have a flare, I never get back to quite as good as I was before it, iyswim.:(

I have an appointment with the rheumy next Tuesday,:eek: and if this doesn't sound too masochistic, I want it to be at its worst on that day, so that she can see for herself.

After having to say goodbye to our beautiful Max I swore I'd never get another dog, but it felt so right when we saw her on gumtree that we had to get her.
We travelled 150ish miles to get her, she was advertised as a Jug (jack russell x pug) but when we saw her we knew she wasn't. She's border terrier cross something :rotfl: maybe schnauzer, she's about 7-8 months now and we renamed her Penny after the girl in The Big Bang Theory (we love that programme ) She was called Princess Bubbles :eek::o when we got her.

That almost had me in tears:o - one of my regulars, Ted, is a border terrier; another, the late and very much missed Sidny was a miniature schnauzer, and the little lass who was my best friend for so many years, and actually stopped me from putting an end to the whole sorry mess of my life, was named Penny - as far as I'm aware, she was retriever X Manchester terrier with possibly some other breeds in her ancestry somewhere, but no idea what.:o Enjoy your Penny - she sounds absolutely delightful. And of course, I'd love to see a pic if you get chance.....;)
