    Morning all. I've an hour before I need to think about getting dressed and walking the dogs before the paid stuff, so am going to see how much of today's list I can get done.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Morning All

    I'm not too far from Cheadle either.

    I want to drop my binbags off at the CS on the way home tonight as they're all in the boot of my car then I'll come home and make a start.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Its very addictive. KonMarie suggests just sorting your own stuff and others will follow. I put a post on the thread about my OH who is terrible at throwing stuff away suddenly wanting to get rid of clothes. He has probably thrown out half of his wardrobe. We had 57 items of clothing between us to get rid of. I still cant believe it!

    DS1 woke me up last night crying and saying he felt terrible. I was really worried but he eventually settled and went back to sleep. I got up an hour later to check he was still breathing! I heard OH get up too. We know he needs his treatment increasing but have been holding off - may have to get in touch with the hospital. Feel like I have been so busy with other stuff I have been neglecting him a bit.

    So paid stuff today, feeling a bit sleepy. OH going to stay home until we see how DS is so I am leaving him a little list of jobs. Better get moving.

    I'm in. Thanks for the list Natty.

    Was going to go back to my voluntary job tomorrow but not 100% yet. Because I'm greeting patients/visitors I don't want to pass it on.

    Need to pop out later and post a couple letters. Will do that when I pop to doctors. I have a regular 6 week appointment but they missed this time. They said a week ago they would email doctor but no one has rang me. So I'm going to go and stand for 15 minutes to get an appointment with him my surgery gives appointments out at 12 each day. There is always a massive queue.

    Flying wise I was hoping it was the living room.

    Hugs,spoons and sticks where needed.

    Thanks serena and lyne for the get better soon wishes.
  • Morning - I am up - was reading at 3.20 but it was so cold I had to put my arm back under the covers and go to sleep again!


    Just about to have breakfast, put the towels on to wash then do the dusting I didn't manage yesterday!! I always anticipate I can achieve more than I end up doing.


    Will look at the lounge list - but probably did most of it yesterday.


    Take care and thanks Dusty and Natty for the threads.

    well... fluffing fluffety fluff....

    I made a smear appointment in a vain attempt to scare AF into appearing, she has a knack.. and she's still AWOL (from 6th Nov!).. I'm not impressed.. I now have to go to the stupid appointment, its snowed, my hips are crazy bad so I don't even think they'll be able to do it anyway.. *not!!* impressed Mumsy Nature.. in fact.. I don't even think you are a woman because women wouldn't be this vile to one another unless they were a major female dog..

    Morning all

    Nice and quiet here, kittens asleep on the heated bathroom floor which they have discovered. Family were all a tad grumpy and running a bit late this morning - definitely Monday.

    DW on
    Going to sort out WM and hoover and mop downstairs and feed the birds.

    Have my gov friend coming to go through RAISE and cuddle kittens in HH so best get a wiggle on.

    Car away fro MoT and I must feed the birds too.

    Piggers at least you can tick smear off your list, hope AF turns up soon

    YL hope your DS feels better soon and you can sort his meds out.
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
