Hip healing vibes for you Dancemum. You sound really busy.

Self-repairing vibes for all FlyMobiles.

Master bed changed, three WM loads out on the line and paperwork mountain climbed one step at a time again.

Plumber phoned for quote to replace two manky rusty radiators, carpet man phoned for estimate to recarpet two letting rooms, new double bedding costed up. The letting rooms are looking sad and tired, and the longish term lodger has had a rather detrimental effect on the soft furnishings because of the nature of his work. I'm going to use some of the money he's paid to overhaul both rooms. The carpets were new six years ago but they are the budget version of what we've got in the rest of the house and they are a bu**er to clean whatever I do to them. He's a lovely chap but hard on the the carpet and the other room hasn't fared that well over the years what with bitumen and hair dye either so I'm going to use this opportunity to upgrade both rooms.

In addition I think between us OH and I have murdered the dy$on. I'm taking it for open heart surgery tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure there's not much hope for it.

When Mrs MoneyPenny bent down to retrieve the jar of sandwich filler and crisps for her son's lunch from the kitchen cupboard, litle did she know that when she stood up, her life would change direction.

... to be continued. Anyone got any suggestions for the next sentence?

mrs-moneypenny

back with pizzas and milk and the card has been posted. going to crack back on with the mending again now.

hope the dyson can be fixed honey.

told DH about it at dinner time and he was as baffled as me. he cant recall seeing the ribbon before either. think its just going to be one of lifes unanswered little mysteries

I would put the lottery on Mrs MP.

Bathroom is about to be cleaned, then I will sort tea I am starving today I can tell AF is here.

Where did you go this morning? How long had you been unknowingly walking about with it on your head?

I await the next episode with eager anticipation :rotfl:

Congratulations to lozzy's car :T

Tried to finish the course this morning and got completely stuck and gave up for the time being
Got lunch
Baked cakes
Made SW quiches (using Parma-type ham instead of pastry for the cases)
Sent DH out
Started ironing, then got an idea how to round off this final session
Made a cuppa
Wrote a bit more - it's beginning to flow again

Need to rest my eyes and brain (brain???? - what's that?) for a few minutes
Will go down and make another cuppa, then will definitely get the writing finished, then will do the rest of the HHI - promise

:rotfl:

Still haven't cleaned the fridge, the kiddies were hungry so they are having an early tea. But I guess it will be easier to do with less stuff in

Really must have an early night tonight. DD and I both yawned all the way to school :cool:

mrs-moneypenny

if it had been on my head i think id have seen it in the mirror when i put my lippy on. But lets say thats where it came from so i dont appear to be a total nutter

glad the car passed its mot Lozzy.

have done all the hand sewing mending im going to leave the sewing machine stuff for another day. im fed up of call centres and scam artists ringing me today.

going to see what washing is dry then S&S the bathroom feed the boys.

not going to be about tomorrow as DH is off and got a few appts as well as work.

Just had to catch up to say - important " stuff" became so manic I had one person on my mobile and one on the home line at the same time and had to decide which was the most important!!! Sorted it and will tell you all about the mobile call nearer to the end of June - I'm so excited!!
Also managed to sort the other imp call and move that on a little - so all in all with all the flying that was also completed - a very good day - a la Pigpen style I think!!!

Have a lovely evening.

DH just making tea and I am deciding between sinking a glass of wine or ironing the last lot - hmmm decisions!!!!
