    Thanks for all your good wishes, could have been a lot worse. On the upside, since I can't carry anything in my right hand and don't what my hand knocked, I'm up to nsd #7as haven't been near the shops. Slightly extreme :money:though.

    Today has been NSD#9!!!
    Go me !!:j:j:j
    I have spent my day continuing to declutter my loft :eek::eek:.(An ongoing project since last week when I started pulling stuff down for the tabletop sale I did on the weekend.)As a result,my house looks like a disaster area,which I am cross about.It is a combination of:
    - me bringing stuff down from the loft and not knowing what to do with it now,and
    - not being able to keep up with the rest of the housework because of all the extra stuff lying around, and
    -the rest of my family not helping out around the house while I spend time doing the loft
    Just feel like running away from home now.......

    Try and think of it as an inbetweeny stage of the clear out saver-upper, it will feel great when you've cleared the stuff out xx

    No NSD here, needed a few bits in town incl some dressings for when I change my bandage at the weekend as I think it will still need something. Also treated myself to a couple of little salads from m&s and some strawberries from the market.
