    Rehomed crocodile, tidy pincushion, rainbow jumper and new FF - wow!
    Flyladies rock :rotfl:

    I have written a couple of emails but need to make more :coffee: and then knuckle down to paperwork and phonecalls. Then we need a "proper" lunch because we're out this evening and will only have time for a bowl of soup before we go or when we get back.

    Off to heritage railway for 6.00 pm briefing before we act as casualties in a simulated railway accident - in the dark :eek:

    Went to see my friend in hospital yesterday. The Drs were still having a big discussion about her, but she said that one of them had mentioned the possibility of chemo, which she takes to be a more positive message than the one she was hearing at the weekend.

    Hope everyone has the best possible day. Big (((hugs))) and loads of coping vibes to mrs-mp and anyone else who needs them x

    So far, I have spent far too long reading.

    I have cleaned the cloakroom, and had coffee. Guilty conscience kicking in, so will now do the living room and hall!

    Minutes typed up at last and a couple more phonecalls made.
    Soup for tea has simmered while I worked, and quick ratatouille is ready to be made while the potatoes cook in the microwave.
    Early lunch today!

    Some nasty person appears to have cleared rubbish out of their car while it was parked in the lane outside the back of our house, and my view from my desk is spoiled by a heap of cans and crisp packets :mad:

    Dailies done before my last post, ironing cleared while catching up with TV, lunch decluttered, and some knitting done. I have loads of wool I got from a charity shop but not enough of any one colour to really make anything so I'm on a mission to knit a patchwork blanket like my nanna made for me when I was younger. :D Using mrs-mp's method of knitting corner to corner and its working so much better than my usual method. Already done one with 100 stitches at it widest point, now I'm tackling smaller balls so the current one is only 36 stitches lol. If I can get my knitting mojo back then maybe I can tackle following a pattern again.

    Off to clean upstairs for an hour. The bedrooms have been neglected lately apart from bed changing. Now, what music to put on? :think:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Hall and living room tidied and vacuumed.

    I have also washed the main bedroom bed linen.

    Walked around the field, and had lunch. Reasonably mild and dry, so I'm in the garden this afternoon.
