1 of 4 worksurfaces cleared and wiped, half a kitchen swept.. inc the worst bit which means moving the very large, very heavy table.
Cuppa made with the last dribble of milk.
Lunch fed to pinks.. I've not eaten as there was no milk for cereal and no ham for sandwiches.
I am so tired I could cry.. but if I start I simply won't stop. I am starving hungry, my blood sugar is so low I am shaking. I am fed up of doing everything and living in squalor!

Hi there. I'm in again although flying has been minimal for 2 days as my OH was taken really poorly with severe abdominal pains. We had an awful night from 2am Sun to yesterday morning, he was in agony. After a wait to see the doc he is feeling a lot better and home again, with medication and with an ultrasound scan due later this week. Hopefully, they think this is an inflammation rather than anything more sinister, but any spare wishes would help!
Good health wishes too, to the poorly flyladies and their loved ones. I'm sorry, I have read through but have brain 'fog' and can't remember names, but funnily enough I was reading about the BRAT diet too, in case it would help him temporarily.
Anyway, today I've washed all the towels and cleaned the bathroom and kitchen, tidied through, and am going in to work today - I had to be off yesterday.
Good vibes and wishes to everyone and thanks to Natty for the lists. R x0 -

Hi Everyone :hello:
I am back in this week, been through a lot of cr*p since my nana passed away, its been a very emotional few weeks. House is not too bad (if you dont look at the dust) but not up to my usual standards, however, that said, I refuse to be stuck in doing cleaning when its gorgeous outside, we don't get it very often. It has to rain the rest of the week so I am stuck in anyways :rotfl:. Hope you are all doing ok, thanks to Natty for this weeks lists.

Have we heard from LW this week? Does she have doggie visitors?I believe she has 2 moulting friends who require brushing and garden supervision.
Today I've been doing a final check of the voluntary paperwork files, and typing up an "idiot's guide" to how to do the stuff, in preparation for handing it over on 19th June. Fingers, legs, eyes and everything else crossed that the new [STRIKE]sucker[/STRIKE] volunteer doesn't back out at the last minute, as happened with the previous person I had lined up. I've printed out a supply of membership cards, complement slips, and that sort of thing, too, so she'll have enough to get into the swing of it.
The next doggy guest is due on 24th June, but the franchisee was telling me yesterday that he's had a couple of hosts let him down, so I said that although we're supposed to be technically "on holiday" next week, we're not actually going away (I hope to get some spring-cleaning jobs done that I need Mr LW's help with) so if he's desperate, I'll take a dog for him.:o
I'm dog-tired myself, and not keeping my head round who has had what happening, so posi-vibes, (((HUGS))), GWS wishes and a large pot of :coffee: are on the table; please help yourselves.:oIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
you still on the naughty step Dusty?:D
good to hear from you LW i hope the transfer goes smoothly and you are not let down.
DS2 is fuming walking to college hed got his ipod out changing songs some idiot walking passed bounced it out of his hand, DS grabbed for it but it hit the floor and smashed the screen. idiot walked off laughing. what a £&!T:mad:. he didnt bother following him or reporting it but is fuming. he only bought it off one of his mates last week. thankfully DD3s fiancee has changed screens on them in the past and it still works so it can be repaired but really what was the point.
sending evil karma vibes to unknown cretin as i type.

Afternoon all, car passed MOT this morning...:j I really thought it wouldn't.
DD's loop system has been changed from today to Monday so I've plenty of time to move some stuff out. Even got her a pair off tracksuits and 2 pairs of 3/4 lengths for her week away with the NDCS, she's supper excited.
All skirting painted last night so filing cabinet can go in now once it's been emptied, boys can help carry all in..;) I will have all paperwork organised tonight.
OH's tracksuits have came out like new and even with me sewing them there looking great, so thanks for the tip pigpen.
Dusty glad to hear your friend is ok.
Right better get the filing cabinet empty, see you all later.“Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.”0
