I have sorted out the living room and husband has put up all the pictures and it looks much better....that was on my toots list worth the mirror and coat hook from yesterday. Youngests support worker rang today and I hadn't spoke to her since July so I'm going to say that's from today's list too.

Dentists re-arranged for Monday afternoon. and I've gathered all the customers orders. Just need to get the links to the online books and then I'll start trying to read the scrawls!

Livingroom has had another tidy up, I've gained another empty box so I'll go tackle the cupboard of doom in DDs room later. I opened it the other night to get a blanket out and loads of stuff fell out. :mad: I just shoved it back in and wedged the door shut. All the stuff DD has randomly dumped in there will be dumped on her bed for her to deal with!

Off to find those links and I'll get on with my work. :wave:

Morning all.
I used to follow the fly lady thread many years back and life got in the way. I remember Toots posts. She seemed a lovely lady.
It was nice to see some names popping up that I haven't seen for many years. Like a warm cuddle from a comfortable well worn winter sweater. AnW's Mum, I remember you from the original MFiT thread, all those years ago. Lovely to *see* you again.
Piggers, I'll miss you when you're gone. You have given me good advice many times over the years and have also given advice to other forum members when I PM'd you about their plight.
Back to thread...
Well done on mastering knitting in the round, I worry about it every time I cast on and think I'll twist the stitches. Magic loop is great isn't it? I have a set of knit picks and I love them so much. I also find it very easy to knit large blankets on a large circular needle because 1) my lap takes the weight of the blanket and 2) the blanket keeps my lap warm.
Right, thread wise, DH did the fridge, DD washed the kitchen floor and DS cleaned both loos. I will get on with everything else from the lists when I get up later on. I am off to bed in a few minutes after finishing my stint of nights.
Right, off to beddy byes, laters xx

Washing out on the line
Tesco delivery put away.. mostly stuff for Dots birthday.. remaining pennies to go on bills.. but I want to buy pretty yarn *wail* (note WANT not NEED.. actually I do need some royal blue to do Squeak a few cardies for nursery.)

MIL has phoned. He is Ok :T
They had one of his favourite DVDs in the quiet room, so she took him in there, a few tears but she said "kiss and cuddle and I need to go!". She peeped back round the door and he'd stopped crying. 10 seconds max. Little booger
She spoke to a TA about the curtain thing and there is just a wall with a mural behind so they will open the curtains today. He actually enjoyed the food yesterday, and knows where the toilet is now. Hopefully it's just a case of getting used to the change.
We all feel much better about it now!

I've had lunch already but I had been here for 5hrs so I think its allowed.

Had a quick look at todays list, it's just perfect! I'm going to call on my neighbour, I think she's home on Wednesdays, and maybe she'd like a cuppa while I tell her about the building work planned in later this month! :eek: and she can tell me all about her granddaughter.
