First day back success! Completed everything on my list, except for dust and deweb. Haven't made tomorrows lunch yet, but I'm scurrying to the kitchen to do that as soon as I'm done here.

No fly tomorrow, as I'm off to the Big City. Back for a double dose on Wednesday

5 pages - :eek:

anyway

emptied DW, WM and TD

and am shattered (see post on last week's thread.)

So, as for flying we shall see...

But I am here in spirit and appreciate the thread and the camaraderie..

LW, when I went deaf, Stoke Manderville hosp, gave me a book on 'aids for the deaf' goodness knows where it is now, you could ask your audiologist.

But this may help https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=alarm+clocks+for+the+deaf&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=0POqVOHMBsG7adjggsAF#q=alarm+clocks+for+the+deaf&tbm=shop

I have a cat that is programmed for 6am!!

Evening - hope all had a good day.

FBO - good to have you back x

Welcome DundeeDoll, Tidy Up Tash, bunbun2, loudmouth, minerva, Klfin

SS - hello Lovely to hear from you x How's everyone?

serena - glad to hear you had a positive day x

I'm pleased to say that Mischief seems a little better (although he is being a very fussy eater!!) and is now back in with his mates in the big cage Thanks for all the thoughts - fingers crossed he keeps improving.

A fair bit of flying completed in the classroom - not a lot done at home

I eventually made it to the kitchen! It now looks all sparkly on the outside if not the inside...baby steps! OH did notice and commented on how tidy it looked. I spent an hour on the phone talking to my Aunty with a cloth wiping the worktops and units down - unheard of before today:rotfl:

I have a long to do list (though much is crossed out for today) as I find it helps me to focus on what needs doing before I crash in a heap. I've been following the threads for a while knowing we would be moving and trying to get a feel for how to do things without it taking away a whole day on a weekend! I'm doing reasonably well at keeping on top of the cleaning so far...but we've lived here 3 weeks and I've been on holiday for 2. Back at school today so it could all go to pot! But hopefully if I keep on popping in here I'll stay on top of it!

Evening all,

I crammed in a hhc after work. Off list, I just did what I could see. Kitchen and dining room stuff, but party related, and haven't had time for floors tonight.
Actually going to wfh tomorrow as I *think* I have my follow up hospital appointment. They gave me the time over the phone but I never received the appointment letter. So I'll call in the morning to double check.
No one else in the team will be in my office anyway.
Kids didn't finish dinner so when they asked (10 min before bed) for food, I gave their plates back. Neither were impressed, it wasn't eaten but a point was made. MIL thinks I'm mean

DD was in a foul mood. Warned to stay in bed as the bad mood is because she is tired from getting up 5 times.

Just talking holidays with MIL, 13 weeks to go!

Narco have a big hug sweetie, you come across as a lovely person and life threw you and your DH a big curved ball. Forget the food, it was not intentional. I'm sure you'll have less waste as you get used to Mr N's current diet. I'll message you later and set a date to get together x

Thanks.
I've just blanched the aubergines for freezing!

Sorry haven't read properly I am so tired! Work was manic, then I spent an hour on the second job, walked the dog, made tea, went to my exercise class, gave the kitchen worktops and floor a good going over and that's it I am done! I should have done some more paperwork but just can't be bothered. Good night's sleep and I will be ready for tomorrow's challenge.
