productive day today!!

Last night I bagged up 9 bags of clothes and shoes and bags for the charity shop...and...I put them in a charity bin in S*bury car park ...woooooo hoooo, also sorted lots of kitchen stuff I don't want/use out and took it round to a friends house for her DD who is leaving to go to Uni in September so she could see if anything would be useful for her...she had about 1/2 of the stuff so the rest will go to a charity shop tomorrow

Now off to walk on my *new* treadmill

Hugs all round

Evening all

Not done too badly today. Blinds are back up and I have moved a temporary rug into the LR so it is getting a bit cosier in there.

Off to London tomorrow so won't get much flying done but hope to make up for that on Thursday.

I have my account set to show 40 posts per page, the thread is 20 pages long and I'm on the start of page 8 Its taken me 3 hours to get this far!

I've also washed up (DD was supposed to do it but she's hurt her foot, so spent the day on the sofa doing homework instead), made hummus, and encouraged DD to do HHpaperwork sorting out old school stuff. I gave her 2 stuffed to bursting lever arch folders of stuff from primary school (nursery through to year 5! Most year 6 is still sitting in carrier bags in a box!) and she's declared there's nothing she wants to get rid of. So tomorrow she can do another HH and start working her way through papers in the box. She can keep the 2 folders of paperwork and other stuff will have to be reviewed as I don't think the 2 crushed plastic cups with string to make a phone will survive much longer and I also don't know what else is in there.

I am off to bed now. Thinking of "watching" one more video while I potter straightening up and I can finish watching it upstairs as long as the wireless plays nice.

Catch you all tomorrow :wave:

Pigpen - tea & battenburg here but I've only just put my work laptop to bed so no flying done today. KH??? Meaneth what? I don't know how you keep your temper with your wonderful family.

KH = Knobhead = the cretin that spawned my children.

I keep my temper with them by venting here when they are particularly vile and ungrateful.. definitely better for us all than beating them and getting a prison sentence

I had rice krispies and a huge bag of maltesers! .. fine cuisine in here tonight!

2 more squares knitted for the blanket.. 7 dome.. 73 to go!

Things took a turn for worst here last night. I think at last OH may seek help. He is very low but wouldn't take AD. I have tried everything. We can't go on like this.

Cat fed, OH off to work I think, I've taken cuppa back to bed. Very little sleep last night.

Hugs Dancemum - hope DH gets the help he needs. Sorry I didn't see your post earlier, you posted at the same time as me.

pigpen

Evil baby has had is up almost all night she is currently rolling about on my causing lots of pain and the baby to leap about in objection to being rolled on.

Dancemum .. Sending hugs and zzzzzzzzzzzzs to you xx

Not sure where to start today.. Maybe that 'almost dry' mountain of laundry is a good place. I really need to get in. The boys room and my room plus I have a mountain of stuff still to workhorse way through in the girls room which cannot be delegated.

The 4th charity bag is being filled and the boys can deliver them I think that will clear a space

Looks like I'm getting up now
