Morning all
if it's gone from yesterdays list, it's done. Very proud of my cupboard now, it looks fab and the storage space is great! Took a little longer than expected, luckily I was able to talk the BF through how to make tea (bangers and mash) so I saved myself one job.

Will get home from paid stuff about 5ish and do a bit of flying while making tea, have to pop into the city for a few jobs then carry on flying when we get home!

Have a good day all

Hmm. All this talk of scrapstores has made me look up our local one. I foresee much *flinging* in their direction. Good.

Wendy.. that is the part I hate most about losing a fluff... I'm usually really upset a couple of days then the other cats notice as the smell starts to fade and start looking for them and that really upsets me.. such a simple thing but I have found allowing them to see their friend has departed helped mine hugely.. it helped with the rabbit too.. when the first one died he was removed very quickly from the cage when the next 2 died they stayed in the cage a little longer (one was overnight and the other was at some point over a weekend we weren't at home)and the others were far more settled and ok with our loss. (((hugs))) to you though it is very sad.

Morning all! Did my first full shift back at work yesterday, feel shattered today but not sure if it's that, AF or the flu jab I got a t work! Never mind, have made a gentle start, need to brush and scrub the kitchen floor, it looks like the cat and DD ate off it last night! At the moment the plan is to do not a lot else today, but maybe I will come back to life later!

Sorry folks, not caught up on thread again Hugs, spoons, sticks, vibes etc for all.

I spent yesterday either doing work admin or helping DD with her homework. DD is currently doing her art homework which requires her copying an image so she using my laptop so I can use hers to do some christmas shopping Thats my plan for the day, get a list together of gifts for people or supplies to make stuff ready for some shopping in town later in the week.

I also have some other jobs that need to be done so I think I'm going to go do a HHC in the kitchen, get the BM, WM etc on. Then I can sit this afternoon guilt free and have a good mooch around the 'net for inspiration

LW you are worth making it for, not only are you lovely but you find shopping an unpleasant experience and you have the materials. I get it I am dreadfully at me time, ok having a cuppa with people as that is sharing time with them, but not say sitting and reading in the daytime. I think you could aim to have the back finished by the end of November.

Thank you; that sounds a sensible target to aim for. I think if I don't set some sort of target, it'll still be sitting there waiting to be finished in another six years.:eek::D

LW.. I have never made anything for myself!!!

I got "persuaded" to buy the wool when we visited the Isle of Skye in 2007. They only had a small amount left, so it was vastly reduced, and it's not been dyed, it comes off the sheep dark brown! That was what attracted Mr LW to it I think, the novelty of undyed pure wool, off the sheep, washed and spun, but nothing much else been done to it. I had no pattern in mind, (first mistake I suppose) and had to G00gle for something suitable - turns out there's not enough to make something for Mr LW, but there is enough to do a waistcoat for me. I don't have anyone else to be able to make anything for.:( It's been sat there for six years now, and it's high time something was done with it - I'd kinda like to use up my small stash (I have a plastic box full of various wool, but nothing like your stash, I'm guessing);) before I pop my clogs.:rotfl:

DS wound me up with an attitude filled tantrum as the bank of mum is closed and I wouldn't give him any money, am seriously unimpressed by his frequent refusals to go and sign on now he's 18, or actually look for a job, so I have finished the kitchen, and the bathroom, dusted the living room and cleaned my couches, hoovered the living room, my bedroom, DDs bedroom and the hall and stairs. The washing machine is sploshing and I am typing in a temper. He is on the edge of being asked to find alternative accommodation again, the last time he was asked to clean his pit of a bedroom but preferred to spend a week sleeping on friend's sofas before grovelling and coming home. I wonder if he will ever realise that nobody can live on fresh air!!!!!! .....and breathe......
