Thanks Lamewolf, Dusty and Mrs-MoneyPenny, I shall go off and mow the lawn forthwith.
My appt went as expected Ionafan, thanks. I have a course of antibiotics for this latest water infection and there is renewed talk of a prophylactic course for the future as this is my 4th infection since August last year when it caused me to lose the use of my hand :eek:
I'm off to do 2 x HHC starting at 10.30 if anyone fancies joining in. Then it is the start of the Lent course, with lunch at 12.

DS1 didn't get the job, he'll be home soon.
Tonight I have Finance and cricket club meetings.
On cup of tea number 8.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
sorry to hear your DS didnt get the job dusty. sounds like you are having a difficult day it can be draining giving out lots of sympathy sometimes so give yourself time and rest so you dont burn out.SPC~12 ot 124
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind0 -
Hi Dusty sorry to hear DS1 didn't get the job. Think you are doing brilliantly to stay on tea.
Your family and friends and neighbours are really lucky to have you there for them (as are we Flyladies/Flyfriends). As Mrs M-P says just dont burn yourself out being strong for everyone at the expense of yourself - it is so easy to forget you in all the busy- ness.
xx
Quick update all done apart from:
Kitchen -Wipe up high on top of cupboards
Clean lounge window
Gardening
Have to go to garden centre when DH gets back as Mrs Duck is on next door's garage roof again. Last year she nested in our raised bed which is filled with penstemons. You couldn't see her she was so well hidden. The problem was the magpies kept stealing the eggs and then dropped them over our sandstone paving with disastrous results. Nothing hatched as DH squirted her with water as he didn't know she was there.
Must get some netting to prevent same this year. Not anti - birds at all but there was Mr and Mrs duck and another duck - a menage a trois - and between them they ate most of our heucheras too!
Catch up again tomorrow.July 16 £95/£200
