    Piggers, can you confirm please if you'll be in York on Wednesday?


    Having looked at the venue, I am really worried about bringing Dot.. She is a runner and destroyer.. she is the reason I am too scared to go to the beach with them.. We were going to chance a visit.

    thanks for mentioning lasagne, i might do that for tea as well.

    anyone want to join a HHC X2 at 3pm? ive got the paper list i made and im going to see what i can cross off it.

    blood clinic went ok, while round mils after i did her cleaning and sorted her meds out till end of week, have booked her an ambulance taxi for next appt and arranged for her prescrip to be delivered on friday.

    borrowed a book from DD2 yesterday called the happiness project, first months project was cleaning and decluttering it mentions "flylady" marla Cilley's book sink reflections . im presuming thats the US based version of what we do. i read the first chapter of happiness project this morning when i first woke up. interesting so far.

    Afternoon all. Hugs and get wells to all who need them, as im on my phone i cant remember who needed them xx
    Yesterday was a great flying day, I almost completed the entire list for the first time ever, just a windowsill to clean and a manky cupboard (I can choose any one I want as they are all pretty manky at the moment) but my highest achievement was the fridge, I'm surprised it hadn't found its own hazardous sign!
    Lots of washing was also done and dried.

    today I have cleared and hoovered hall/stairs/landing and had a tidy round in living room to get some of the holiday things away. Shoes sorted and put back on a clean shelf. Coats sorted and either binned or put in front of the washer.

    dh is driving me mad though, I really want to get decorated but he always has an excuse, I'm trying not to get angry but I'm struggling.

    going to start clearing the living room properly in a minute and sort all the washing I have just brought in due to showers.

    think that hour was more faff than fly. i emptied DS2s scout rucksack, so basically filled the laundry basket, dished out and put away piles of clean laundry, gathered a few more DoE bits together need to store them in now empty rucksack), paid loros lady, swept through downstairs, and flung 6 bottles of old suncream (im guessing when it smells like plasticine its gone off) and put more recycling out.
    off to start again as i dont think any of that was actually on a list.

    So tired!

    Paid stuff for five hours
    Aldi run
    Sainsbobs for black pud and ciggies (best shopping basket ever?!)
    Home and all shopping away
    Kitchen S&Sed
    Sandwiches made for tomorrow
    Our bed stripped and in the WM
    Lounge straightened
    Dinner partially prepped

    I want a cheeky cider but I think if I have one I will fall asleep. DH has just text to say he is nearly home, an hour early, better get the bed remade and have the world's quickest shower:D

    Piggers - we're all ok that were going to York but other things have cropped up and the weather forecast is awful. Maybe we can try to do the autumn meet on a Sunday. That worked before.

    From the list, I have sorted shoes and coats.

    Just back from docs and now on antibiotics which have to be taken before food. So I've just taken one and my food of choice is fudge.

    FBO - Hope Ozzie is more settled now.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    You rock, Jazee!


    Healing vibes for you, Mr Lamewolf and FBO's Ozzie. (It's quite comforting to know that Mr and Mrs LW are people I am certain won't be offended by sharing healing vibes with Ozzie.)
    Better is good enough.
