    What is HHC please mrs-moneypenny? EDIT: found it on first post, half hour challenge! I thought it was strange that google was telling me it meant either hand held computer or Hexham Horseless Carriages!

    You managed to do so much in that time!! How?!

    I cleaned our (very small) bathroom, stacked dishes and thats it!

    Dusty, it depends what I'm making. Hats and gloves, I like Judi's super stretchy bind on and off. Sometimes I use the 2 needle method but most of the time, I like a long tail cast on. DD prefers to use the knit on method. HTH's.
    Right, time to tackle my bedroom. Carpet fitters coming tomorrow :D

  • Afternoon flyladies :hello:

    The only thing I have achieved today is decluttering a 3-hour nap as soon as I got home from dropping off DS2 at school -- I have yet another rotten migraine. My dad and grandad both suffered with them in their early 20s through to their early 30s; I was hoping mine would bog off too but they seem to be getting more frequent and definitely more painful. Oh well, sorry for whinging!

    At least I'm feeling vaguely human now :) so I should make a start. DSS and DSD were here last night so I need to right the destruction they leave in their wake. I haven't even washed up the breakfast dishes yet.

    Hugs and spoons and cuppas to those in need. I have read the thread but most of it went in one eye and out the other :rotfl: xx

    I want to learn Long Tail but it looks so tricky, I can't even get it started!

    Healing vibes for FizzWhizz, Froddington's pupil, RP and boydog. Valli, I'm so glad things aren't *quite* as bad as you first thought, and I for one miss you, so although it's not what you wanted, I'm looking forward to your p/t return. *mwah* backatcha.

    Two beds stripped and remade with OH's help, superking room dusted and wiped for revisiting muso lodger, ice maker run through with bicarb, slow cooker on with chickpeas for very experimental chickpea burger recipe, 0range Weds booked for Grav!ty and 2for1 deal at p!zza express - my turn to treat OH. Lawn raked of deep pile leaves ahead of the rain. Am just about to hop into the bath for a long healing soak for my back and then I'll blitz it - the bathroom - not the back.
    Better is good enough.

    Had a awful night last night Dd was sick again but this time there was quite a bit of blood in it so we rang nhs direct to see what to do as in take her to a&e or the walk in at 8am or ring her doc in the morning.

    In the end they sent a paramedic out, she checked her temp and pulse which were both fine, so we agreed it must of just been a popped capillary due to her being sick. She has a good sleep in my bed and has woke up this morning as right as rain and has ate everything in sight so hopefully much better day today.

    flying wise more boil washes, so I need to sort laundry and clean dishes from lunch, I was going to clean my windows today and re-organise my kitchen cupboards but am not sure I can be bothered its time for a cuppa and some cartoons :)
