Valli - so pleased for DD

MMM welcome back

VMD welcome

Shell You're doing well

I've hoovered and mopped downstairs; dusted the LR; got the washing in; made Tom soup and apple and blackberry crumble, washed up.

That is much more than I've achieved of late. DH still working on the shower but I have gobbled up a really annoying frog so hopefully that will create energy to achieve more.

We haven't gone out as planned so had our picnic in the living room. Taking inspiration from the posts on here, I found my GUAG and went for a bike ride, did some weeding in the garden, cut the grass back and front and sorted DH's sock drawer.

I hope everyone is having a pleasant evening.

Hi all - we're back -- had a quick read back but not much has gone in, sorry.

Need your thoughts etc please for our DS GF who is in hospital. Will know more early next week.

Take care and best wishes to all those going through clearing and to Dusty's DS1 for interview and test next week. xx

Posivibes on the way to JTTOU DS GF.

Better log off now, think DH is feeling neglected.

'See' you all tomorrow.

Sorry about your dear doggie, Vanilla

Welcome to new and returning flyladies!

We had a nice couple of days camping, but came home this aft. Kids have had enough and want their own surroundings. And camping is hard work As luck would have it, North Yorks is now under a weather warning for wind. Goodness knows what my mum will do, but I'm sure they will sort it out between them. I did help her get everything cleaned up and put away before we left.

We are just about unpacked, only a few bits of toys to rehome and the wash bag. But I've a bit of laundry to get through in the next couple of days.

Think we are done with our trips now, kiddies just want to be at home. Me too.

So I'm back on the flylady bus tomorrow!

Vanilla thinking of you
Dusty wishing your AF a speedy departure and a long vacation before her return

Just spent a few hours trying to sort some more of my room out and DD3 has been gophering for me (go for this and go for that)`, but it has been slow going as my AF and BD have been playing TAG with each other and I am looking forward to bed.

DS has been having stories for over an hour and it's time for him to give in.....we have done Bear Hunt and Green Eggs and Ham with the silly voices, so I am ready for my own R&R and a brew

One more story of Slinky Malinki and that is it, definitely bedtime

see you tomorrow or on the new thread :wave:

Morning all

Woke up hungry and chilly so I'm on the kitchen sofa by the aga with a cuppa, biscuits, mog and DS1's clean hoodie which was drying on the aga.

Day full of cricket for all 3 boys with DS3 going from a junior match to a senior one. DS1 is after me to do the criket teas. I could do with the time tbh but season is not far from the end so I'll probably do it (in return for garden hep tomorrow).

Bossy glad you are home safely before the winds come
Skinty hoping AF and her miserable dog leave you soon, let's book her on a world cruise with mine.
JTTOU sending health vibes for your DS's GF

Plan is to tidy and dust the DR office before everybody else arises.

Jazee

Morning all. I'm up a little earlier today and this is my list for today:

Water plants
Get beef in slow cooker
Breakfast and WUDUPA
Gym
Bath
Walk dogs
Hoover through house
Go back in the cupboard of doom and make a pathway between boxes of books for DH to find what he wants when he's back from paid stuff later.
Gardening

Have a great day everyone.

Jazee

Just discovered red wine stain on a cream seat cushion, wondered why it had been turned over. AArgggghhhh......good job DH has left for the paid stuff already.
