    Hi Dusty, tried to PM you but your inbox is full - could you just delete one so I can send you my message! x

    In my HHC I've vacuumed right through the whole house - even moving things! Also I've emptied the lounge bin and emptied and disinfected the kitchen bin; it's out in the sun drying now.

    Going to have a cuppa now and then I think we'll take the dogs out for a walk.

    Hello again. From feeling quite down first thing, my spirits have been lifted by the lovely people in the village. I popped down to the docs and en route a neighbour said pop in on your way back for a marrow (also got some plums) and another said pop in on the way back and take a look at the garden. So on the way back I stopped to chat to another villager, then went to look at the most beautiful garden and stayed for tea and hm cake while looking at old photos of the village. I am now flying with happiness.

    The dogs don't seem quite so pleased that I've been out so long, so I'm about to take them for a decent walk.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Thanks Dusty - PMd you x

    Didn't get out after all as the kids happy on iPads etc so put the oven on and going to do fishfingers and chips for lunch. Done some paid work so that's less for me tonight now :j.

    Jazee isn't it lovely when neighbours are friendly and they can really lift your spirits if you're feeling a bit flat or down. Just something as simple as a smile can help.

    Found Z's trainers now and am going to put them in the WM as they need it; may well do a couple of school coats too as it's a lot more chilly now. Pretty organised about kids going back to school but a bit jittery as Z is going up to seniors so we've been doing a few practise runs on the bus! S is going to juniors so all change; my babies are growing up.

    Morning all. Will have a crack at transferring all across list wise later. Currently sitting on loo on iPad!
    This morning, I have dusted, vaxed and mopped the kitchen floor!
    Hope to achieve more later!

    Edit: Lily photos are not happening because I can't get them off the iPad and onto photobucket. I thought I had and tried to link them but then the link was damaged.

    Dusty, are you feeling better yet?

    Lots of wees today. Only a couple managed outside so far. I feel that this could take some time :o
