Dailies done

Dustykitten

Meeting decluttered.

Just making hot chocolate and then I'll wash up and do a bit of ironing as I have a feeling there could be a shirt shortage in the morning and I need to be at the paid stuff for 8:20.

Kaz big hugs sweetie, not like you to be off form

JTTOU - thanks, I know what I should be eating, am just fussy and need to get my act together, been a bit better today, trouble is I'm not a food person (unless we are talking cake and right now we are not talking cake)

Serena I did not know you could plant peas now - recommend any variety?

Mr LW is seeing the urologist this afternoon; hopefully that will be the end of it, and one less thing to stress about.

Gah!!:( No such luck - they've found a cyst on his left kidney, and he now has to wait for an appointment for an ultrasound scan. I may just cry.

My bin has gone missing bin day here, my bin is gone, so I guess some one has taken 2 in!, hope fully it will re appear by morning.

That's interesting - we put our blue glassware box out for the recycling men last week, and it's vanished into the wild blue yonder.:( Mr LW reckons someone's is broken and they've nicked ours. That's despite us putting the house number and postcode on it when we first got it.
Hope you're feeling more like yourself tomorrow - if I were you, I'd write today off and start fresh in the morning. (((HUG)))

LW quick appointment vibes for Mr LW; have you ever tried magnesium supplements to aid your sleep? You need to be careful of the formulas as some can upsets tums. I'm using an 'oil' actually a solution I made by dissolving a high concentration of flakes in water.

Weather is just awful, dd wet the bed, ds2 ended up in our bed and I have toothache!

Tablets taken, shall ring dentist when it opens.

Do daily morning routine and school run (please stop raining for this!)
Change bedding
Wm1 on then hang out
Arrange someone to have ds1&2 for dental trip.
Cancel friend coming over today

Already ask dh who replied "no I cant...why do you have to have toothache on my busiest day".

I know my mum will take the time off work but I never ask him to take time off for these things because as a mum I'm usually superwoman who can never be ill. Would take children but ds2 is only 7mths so can't be trusted to sit and watch!

House is relatively up together at least so apart from daily Hoovers I won't get much flying done.

Hope everyone's else's day is better. Hugs to those suffering with hospital appointments, illness and family fallouts

Morning - late as slept only until 2 then probably from 5.30!!!


Dusty - IKWYM re cake!!! Have you tried the lady on the Sat market - not sure she's there every time? It must be difficult to find a GF cake recipe you like if it's just for you. You deserve a treat. x


LW - hugs for you and DH.
Englishrose - hope the toothache improves.


Just found out I have to do Christmas ready to take presents and any unwanted decs down on the 5th!!!! Best get a move on then.


Trying to motivate self to go out in the gloom to Mr A**I for opening time so can be back for a delivery. That will give me the whole day to get on.


I had an amazing day yesterday - and managed not to say a word about what I'd done to DH - who never said anything - but he did go and fix the bathroom window catch without my asking - think he's been cold in the bathroom in the mornings!!!


Plan for today
two phone calls to do - sure they multiply.
wrapping
clean paintwork lounge, dining room hall and stairs
KITCHEN- aagh!
Shower tray and doors.


Catch up later - have a good day everyone.x

Morning everyone.

Seems like a lot of hugs needed. Sending them where needed where lots of positive vibes.

Yesterday I got the dailies done. Got the towels washed when I got in and some clean washing put away.

Today it's kitchen day for me and dailies.

DD coming for lunch and hopefully give me some ideas for presents for family.

Morning all

Glum weather here today, I've got paid stuff first thing but only for a couple of hours. If he is ready on time I'll give DS1 (and his man flu) a lift to the station as it is now pouring. DS3 off to his bus and going to the stop with the shelter.

ER good luck at the dentist.

Somebody have the kettle on for when I get back.
