Breaking Through, Travelling On

[Deleted User]

Loving your positivity, KC:j. You've worked so hard to get to this stage and had to battle so many health issues. You deserve all the fun and good times that will surely come your way:beer:. I shall be enjoying them too, vicariously of course;)


Sorry about my wet-blanket mood last time I was here:o. Not like me, I'm a glass half full kind of gal. Often glass overflowing is more accurate, to the extent that OH frequently tells me I'm in cloud cuckoo land (whatever that means:rotfl:).


Life feels good today. Maybe your mood is infectious:dance:
Enjoy your week:)

Thank you CBC, much appreciated!

Right now, I'm shutting down to prepare for a trip to the local town centre: taking my therapy room kilim to be dry cleaned, plus charity shop donations: one of those steamers that fold up, a bag, a few books, just bits and bobs, but the kitchen table will be accessible again

What is the therapy room going to be now?

Hi Watty - it's going to be a second bedroom (single bed only, sadly) plus reading room for me - I need to be able to sit down in a comfy chair to read the laptop, and the web access doesn't reliably extend downstairs (router is in the office, also upstairs) so making a sitting space up there will be good for anyone staying, and good for me the other 99% of the time

Got to think of a new name ... the reading room, maybe

So, a ta-da list:
- finally dropped off the "rags" at the charity shop
- donations to the same one, a hospice place.
- put the kilim in to the dry cleaners, £32!!! It *was* £36, I pushed him down a bit.
- shopping £2 big pyrex bowl, £3 for 5 DVDs, both CS purchases.
- washing has been done, and has almost dried on the line, lovely day :T
- rang my "partner" - got to think of a new name for him too! Hmm, "friend" will be find :rotfl:
- started more pruning and cutting, just half an hour or so, I can do a bit more after a snack

You can get wireless extenders you know?

If it has soft cushions and a comfy chair - it has to be the Spanish Inquisition.

I bet you didn't expect that...

Love the idea of having a reading room How very civilised :j

Watty1

A reading room - well posh!

Karmacat

'S good, innit, to have a reading room

The Spanish Inquisition is fun, but for actual useage, I think it has to be "The Cosy Corner" :j:j:j thank you KnitWitch :kisses3:

I may have a solution to the router problem, too, which would be good, because in winter I sort of live downstairs, I don't heat upstairs at all. It's like living in a perfectly acceptable flat. Not ideal, when you've got a house :rotfl: but so it goes.

Anyway, much as I hate to say it ... I'm snuffling. I don't want to be, but I am. I am **insistent** to my body that its the change in temperature, or the fact that when I've been hedgetrimming the last few days, its over my head, and little dusty crap is falling on me and triggering allergies.

So, today, yet more tidying, yet more laundry, yet more hedgeclipping, plus research into a little trip to the coast for me and my sister one afternoon this week, and on extending my wireless signal :j

Actually it would probably be best to live upstairs during winter as heat rises. Leave the stairs open and the cold air would drop away, and the warm air would come up to say hello.

Well we've been noticing at work that there's a whole bunch of us sneezing. Not quite sure what it is either, seems a little late for pollen, but doesn't seem like the lurgy either.
