    Morning
    School run done, a wash in and out, washing up done, amazing how quick it is to do when you're not doing a weeks worth.
    Tiny doesn't want to nap so she will have to join in with me today, we need a good tidy up.
  • Back after a couple of years doing an MSc... now finished and awarded! (Phew....!). Hello to many old friends and to all the new faces I haven't met before. It's good to be back.

    Meanwhile the house is a total hovel again and I have people coming to stay at Christmas. :eek: I'm going to start with the bathroom today as there is an odd smell coming from the drains...:p

    Plus I need to empty the wonky veg out of the fridge and make soup before my shopping arrives later. There is a suspiciously brown splodge in a bag at the bottom which I think used to be celery. So that means wiping the fridge out, too... Better get cracking

    Am going to post this, then start a HHC at 11:00am. Any company would be fantastic!

    Do do do do do MissHiggery. I was going to post about a HHC at 11.00. Welcome back, if that's appropriate from a relative newbie, and HUGE congratulations on your MSc. *shared pain and pride*

    Good news vibes for OllieCat.

    Please may I request *justice* vibes for OH and his colleagues - they have a business meeting today which may finally start the ball rolling to correct a great wrong that was done to them several years ago.
    Better is good enough.

    Two untidy bad areas tidied and one room straightened. How did you get on Mrs Higgery?

    Today will have to be devoted, I think, to clearing newly developed hot spots. There appear to be rather a lot of them which is a bit time-consuming, so lots of HHCs for me.

    So far I've done 2 loads of washing, put dry washing away and stayed alive :D Progress has been made! Feeling so low today, not sure why but a million small things are bothering me. Off to the Drs today anyway so going to ask him for a short supply of sleeping tablets, have to do it once a year usually and only take one when desperate, but reaching that point where I need something to help me out. Sleeping just a few hours some days, literally just 3 hours sometimes, and need to get a decent sleep to feel back to myself I think.

    Done our grocery shop. Well stocked up. All put away. Freezer hokey-cokey done. And that is it. Where is my GUAG? Dusty, has it run away to the circus with yours? ;)

    I really need to do something this afternoon. Although I might help DD do her mini gingerbread house :D

    Get well vibes to pigpen, olliecat, and dancemums DF

    Best of luck vibes to Mr HB and anti-drain stink vibes to MissHiggerty

    They have taken all my dusters with them! Just wasted 15 minutes searching for them. My parcel, DS3's main present has arrived though :D
