    Well I'm not getting much work done, but I have been in the kitchen whilst dd pretended to eat her dinner. She had the sum total of two beans and quarter of a crumpet. But, I've put some water in her toy teaset so she is at least drinking. Although she's just sat on the mat pouring it from one to the other.

    The dailies are done and I'll empty the bins as its bin day tomorrow.

    Well done Good Intentions on getting the wretched essay finished.

    Sorry about Fudge, Froddington.

    Wendy Witch: When things were tough here quite a while back, I found keeping a Flying Diary to remind me I had achieved things helped enormously. Have some gentle (((hugs))) to keep you going.

    Between yesterday and today I've done the shower room and bathroom, WM x 5, DW x 1, made three litres of curried parsnip soup, half a litre of which was decluttered at lunchtime, dusted the basement properly, changed and cleaned one bedroom, vacuumed two floors and washed a couple of floors. I'm just about to vacuum the top floor and stairs on the way back down again.

    All of this is an effort to avoid doing my HH on a Frog of cane toad proportions. Rivet. Rivet.
    Better is good enough.

    not achieved a lot.
    did a load of paperwork
    wrote my healthy lifestyles report for tomorrow
    my photo driving licence came back on Saturday and my other documents back today so work finally managed to get the computer to accept my crb today. i have been feeling sick for 2 weeks after it started refusing it just because i hadnt got photo id and the head said i would lose my job if it wasnt sorted.
    documents all put back away in a safe place so they dont get lost.

    Can you split it into tadpoles? Would you keep me company by eating one of those tadpoles now, while I do my Brain Training?:o

    Sorry Lamewolf I've only just seen your post, or I'd have joined you. I've managed to tire myself out Flying, and the Cane Toad of a job will now require that I spend three hours on it tomorrow to catch up all the HHs I haven't done over the past week or so. I have, however, had an exceptionally good idea for part of the project that has been worrying me sick, so once I put pen to paper, I should be better off. If you Brain Train every day, can I keep you to that tomorrow?
