  • Hi Beanie!

    Please be careful. Falls are not fun. I hope you had a soft landing and aren't too bruised up. I can fully sympathise with the lurgy. Make sure lots of hot drinks and rest are happening.

    Congrats on chub club! :j

    As much as the decluttering has been hard work on you, do you feel better for it? I know when I reduce down I feel better afterwards.

    Enjoy your evening!

    October xx

  • Hello lovely Beanielou, I've been thinking of you over the last few days and hope you are well. I am plodding nicely through the half term break from school and enjoying the rest.

    Come back soon beanielou, I miss your updates!!!
    With family, friends and pets (or any combination of them) life will be fine!

    I have been at my DM's for longer than I expected.
    I have not been very well.
    Anyway home now & slowly on the mend but still coughing a lot.

    Finally got BT refund.
    Now pondering what to do with it.
    Was going to OP with it but I am now thinking I might put it towards replacing one of my kitchen windows( I have two). Very much needing done as frame is rotten.
    Will continue to ponder.
