I have decluttered an appointment with the lovely practice nurse. She concluded that I do not have a chest infection, but my peak flow is awful and has prescribed steroids and some new inhalers. A quick count up and my total prescriptions since July has now reached 13. I find it really sad that my best moneysaving deal of the summer was my prepaid prescription card.


Onto flying - well the washing up is done and DS put a washload of his stuff through last night. Plenty more washing to do, however and the weather is not conducive to drying, sadly..


Have read some of the last thread - hugs and spoons to all who need them..

The sewing listy that was 12 items long is now 14 items long, but eight of them are done! It turned out one of them only needed me to clip two stitches, and that's been outstanding for over 21 years! I have managed to learn a huge amount by researching sewing techniques on the internet so I am really, really glad I'm doing this challenge. Thank you for my stars, Ionafan.


Lovely to see you back, Boddy and CY! (((Hugs))) and healing vibes for Pip, Mumof2. MummyRoys, can you think of it as deferring for a year, do some extra reading around the subject and pick it up again next September? Kitchen coping vibes LW, and a request for you to ignore the next sentence.


I have seen a whiskey version of the Christmas cake recipe that I posted last December, else thread!


Bathroom sparkly, shower room will be sparkly today, the sewing machine will be whirring at some point, and I'm going out on a jaunt to the local Records Office - a guided tour, so it'll be really interesting to see behind the scenes.

cut quite a lot more off the conifers the bottom one came down completely the plan this week is to see if we can remove the stump. then there a re 10 more to do before we can replace them with a fence. loads of logs were taken round to a friend who has an open fire so hes going to store them for a while till they can be burned. so basically some wool being used and confiers being decluttered, want to go through my stitching mags and see if i have doubles to declutter. DD2 is going to put some boxsets of dvds well never watch again on eblay for us.

skinty, coping vibes and hugs for you and yours,, i hope today goes well. get advice as to whether you can stay put with the little ones dont be forced out.
bossy make sure you are still getting enough rest.
hugs good wishes and postive vibes to all who need/want them
