Morning everyone

Elastic hope all goes ok for you at the dentist. You will feel so much better when it is done.

Saw the psychologist yesterday for the last of the cognitive testing that DS has been having. It seems that his mental health problems are much worse than we thought. The trouble is that when you live with this 24/7 it becomes almost normal after a while. Looks like more hospital visits may be on the cards - as if we dont go there enough already.

Last day at work today before a couple of days away. I am so ready for this little break!

Today is supposed to be a day for tidying the house, I just haven't got started yet. But I have done the washing up and the second washload is underway.

DD2's appointment went well yesterday and she is quite positive about it.

I am trying to support an online friend who, after a horrible split with her ex, is in danger of losing her home. Realistically she stalled for too long and isn't going to have the time to get a mortgage sorted. Doing my best to be supportive, but it is very difficult.

WW sorry you are feeling grumpy. Hope things are brighter today x

YL Hope DS gets help to get better and the appointments go well. Hugs x

Ground floor henried

Hello everyone, after a day back in school yesterday I'm catching up with jobs today. Washing done and on the line, tidied up and hoovered downstairs, brushed an mopped porch and kitchen floors. Time for a brew and to unknot my knitting.

Got three washloads blowing on the line. Yesterday's washing was ironed while still damp and is now airing in front of a sunny, open window.

Plan to clean the kitchen shortly if I can be bothered!

I'm going to get my act together and do a couple of HHC at 2pm, anyone with me?

I'm heading downstairs to see how many rooms I can whizz through!
