Hugs to all the flyladies family's who are suffering, you are all in my thoughts. xx

My appointment for my MRI scan has come through for next month!!

WM done
Ironing all done
Decanted one old feathered pillow in to 2 others and stitched them all back up again, def a job to be done outside or in the garage!!

Washed all the glass light shades.
Hoovered the whole house
Went to local garden centre and bought £1.91 worth of different seeds spuds to grow in tubs this year, got them chitting on the window sill, along with other veg / flowers seeds as the green house is so cold.

Thanks for all your good wishes.

Managed a fair bit in the garden, being outside always makes me feel better.

DS3 fed, just doing dinner for DS2 and me and then homework and reading with DS3 and a bit of ironing.

Oh Dusty, I'm so sorry to hear your news. If Mr Dusty and his father needs a hug, would be it okay to pass on a couple of (((virtual))) ones?

Ditto.
And to you too Honey Bear, it's so hard to watch the oldies. You are doing all you can to give your dog a happy and comfortable time.

Hugs Dusty. Having lost two members of my family to lung cancer I know how difficult it can be. Make the most of the time you have.

I have done my own version of flying this week so far but intend to have all hands on deck for the weekend when we will be doing a Spring clean.

Today I have actually ironed. 2nd time in a year
All my paperwork is sorted and the office looks like an office and not like a dumping ground

dont forget everyone with children tomorrow is red nose day, do you need something red sorting out for them to wear, small change to take for games etc or anything else that might still be lurking on a letter in their reading packet.

There speaks the voice of experience;)

Dusty and Mrs Gibbs (hugs); coping vibes, too.

Bathroom is clean; did two more washloads and pegged them out (inc jumpers which cannot go in the TD so I'm pleased about that.)

Dealt with a little tadpole to save me some ££. I buy Prima monthly so I have subscribed, as it's cheaper, and bagged a generous free gift too.

Been to bank the PTA money.

Been to pay DD's dental bill.

Bought DS a red nose (because the 5 I bought on Monday were all for my colleagues who HAVE to wear them tomorrow):D

Told NDN about our free town centre parking scheme. IT NOW RUNS all week:money:

Emptied shredder.

Washed wheelie bin and kitchen bin.

Evening! DD decluttered some zzzz's as expected, but she was laid on me:happylove
They've had Xmas dinner which I found in the freezer and I've done a bit of sewing, a skirt for DD dolly and started a dinosaur for DS.
We played with the happyland sets and DS came up with the oddest story but basically the baby tiger ran away with the little boy in the camper van and a fireman in a flying car rescued them and brought him home to mummy tiger :rotfl: then they all had porridge for tea

We are above stairs now and it's pj time, and watching Madagascar 2.

Ironing all hung up in respective wardrobes...

Huge hugs to all who are in need (((((((hugs)))))))

My day has been bogged in paperwork sorting. One lot all done with all necessaries in one home journal, am now tomorrow going to tackle a kitchen version for my cooking/cleaning/grocery stuff.

WM hasn't leaked all day blasted thing so all put back in place in UR. Windows or floors still not done cos all my cleaning gear lives in downstairs loo off UR *gah*

Tomorrow will be run to CS to get rid of more clutter and I have a huge box of papers for fire lighting thanks to my paperwork de-clutter

Back to work Monday for a change of scenery so will see how well my lot take to keeping my routines up

On another note, anyone got any help on how to deal with an atitide filled 14 (almost 15) yo Sd???????
She thinks she can do what she likes and treat my house how she likes. I warned her when we moved new house, new rules and I wasn't taking any nonsense, so tonight we had a stand off which resulted in me with a banging sore head, her in bed in a huff at 2030 and DH stuck in middle.

having a vino for medicinal purposes, my excuse and I'm blinkin well sticking to it

Thanks for no-snow vibes, Flyladies! I had relatively easy journeys today, mostly in glorious sunshine, though it was minus 3 degrees when I started out just after 6:00 am and it took me 10 minutes to de-ice the car.

DGS3 slept happily on me for an hour and a half this morning, giving his mum time to catch up on some much-needed sleep. He and I had a lovely long cuddle

No flying here today (except the washing up that DH has done) but I made lasagne and stew for DS2 and DDiL and S&S'd their kitchen, also some mending for DDiL and sewed poppers on 2 gro-bags for DGS3.

Hope you're OK, macpep - take it easy! Coping vibes and (((hugs))) to all who need them, especially Honey Bear, Dusty and mrs gibbs.

I'm shattered now and must get off to bed. The BT engineer is coming tomorrow between 8 and 19. See you all in the morning!
