    Have put away all tax-related paperwork and organised properly for next time.
    Next big frog is that my assessment certificate is due for renewal in April and they want loads of documentation for that: lists of all training I've done in the last 3 yrs, all assessments ditto - each listed with a code to make them anonymous but recognisable should the examiners ask to see them. I've got a 2-3hr gap between students tomorrow so I'm hoping to make some progress with sorting that lot out.
    Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.

    But you do appear to have a whole row of spoons.

    Morning all. This morning before the paid stuff I'm going to have a clean and sort out in the gym which has become a dumping ground since Xmas. DH can't get up in the loft while he's in pain.

    Anyhow, have a great day everyone.

    I had such a bad headache yesterday, I only managed to hoover downstairs and wash up. There was also someone coming round to see DH, oh well never mind. I feel better today though, so should be able to do a bit upstairs.

  • Morning everyone - and a big thank you for your comments yesterday. If anyone is in any doubt about why this thread is so brilliant the help and support is just wonderful. You made me feel so much better.

    HB hope things are as well as can be expected with your dog.

    And dusty what gorgeous photos. Made me smile.

    Well I can only do what I can do cant I? Went to the meeting last night and it was important that I was there so I was glad I went. I have made it clear I wont take on any more voluntary work though.

    I have a 14 yo and a 16 yo, as well as a husband, who are all capable of helping but they wont. I have more or less given up with that idea, its just not worth fighting over.

    So paid stuff this morning, not much to do on second job so in theory it should be a fairly quiet afternoon. We have some cardboard and kitchen junk to take to the recycling but probably not today.

    Have a good Wednesday everyone, hope the weather is OK, not look forward to strong winds again.

  • Hi - sorry I am late!!


    Gorgeous kittens Dusty. Absolutely awful news for your Mum.

    Just seen that B**ts sale has gone down to 70% today so waiting for D sis to ring after her gym and sort out where we are going. Lots of stuff on website is sold out already!!!


    I am sure I'll get to fly later. Did manage to bake a cake yesterday for D neighbour and whilst it was in the oven I actually hoovered downstairs and took hoover upstairs ready to do that - later - oops- I mean today!


    Need to get out and walking today as I am aiming to walk round Central Park within 2 days! - Iona'll know what I mean LOL!!


    Have a good day everyone. x
