Welcome back Charlieyates. I know what you mean about getting nothing done with the man of the house at home – Mr LW arranges to work from home when I have medical appointments, so that he can take me, and it's nigh on impossible to do any Flying, even though he's just sitting at his desk, on the works laptop. I'm not on FB, so can't help you with a “like”, but I do hope things pick right up for you and DH.:o

Boddy healing energy being sent for Ozzy. Hopefully he'll be home soon.

Wendywitch healing energy for Kiwi also.

Re answering the door in undies, towels etc – our late friend Colin was a naturist, and always kept a dressing gown near his front door, in case of needing to answer it to the postie or similar.:o

Slimbrunett welcome; you'll find so much support and encouragement here. I suffer with depression and anxiety, and have found much help and friendship here, even though I rarely follow the “official” lists.

HB fab video – thank you so much for posting the link. He really does look like a happy chappie.:T Give him a cuddle for Auntie Wolfy.:D

I had ideas of *gulp* trying to do some work in the garden, but it's tiddling down out there. So I shall see if I can get some more masking tape up on the high areas that still need painting - yes, I know you'd all have had the job done and dusted by now, but I must do what I can manage when I can manage it. Bluddy lupus!!:mad:

Trip to @ldi tonight when Mr LW gets in - I'm still very apprehensive about getting into a car.:(

YORKSHIRELASS

LW I guess you have to just keep gritting your teeth and making short car journeys until your confidence come back. Must be awful.

Hugs to poorly pets.

Good luck with the job hunting Cy and welcome newbies.

Well I was going to change our bed but OH has made it very neatly, all tucked in nicely. I have other washing to do anyway so may leave it until tomorrow.

Off to take doggie for a little walk then will get the duster and hoover out.

And bossy - yuk. Someone uses the toilets at work every morning and its very unpleasant. I worry when I come out that I will bump into someone and they will think its me!! Sorry to anyone eating.

Right, better move myself, the afternoon is flying by!

Charlieyates, sorry I not on Facebook either, but wish your child every success.
Wendywitch healing vibes for kiwi
Hope everyone is ok, the drizzle has just descended here so grabbed the washing in when I got home from work, fed dh he's gone back to his work now I'm doing food for ds1 and a friend of his who are both gaming as they have day off work. Nipping back to decorate the tree in a bit, then going iron what needs it and put the washing away.

Evening

I am that cold tonight, I have put the gas heater on, not very MSE with my fingers are so cold I can hardly feel them.

Staggered 2 more items sold on ebay! collection only, so both gone by the weekend, so more room, fling with ££ in!

Daily stuff done
Rained here all day and still raining.

bossymoo

I wore gloves on the school run this afternoon! It's May, FGS!

I'm feeling rather warm now (and my legs ache I'm that unfit!) after two games of dodgeball with the Beavers, lol. One of them was a little cheat too, three times I got him out before he would go and sit down :rotfl: DS did his hot drinks badge tonight and made me a lovely cuppa :T I also had a coffee from another boy who's parent(s) didn't show up (they were all asked to come for a little show and refreshments), poor little lad, I to,d him it was the best coffee I'd ever tasted

Keep checking my monitor and so far today we are using the equivalent of £2.36 per week. We had the heating on earlier, plus WM has been on, DS played on the wii for a while so normal kind of usage. That's combined gas and electricity so I'll be happy if it stays at that lol. Not likely:)

I really need to do some jobs tomorrow before we go to ballet (aww it's DD show on Saturday ) and when we get home. I had a clash with a hosp appointment, but they've sent me a letter making it half an hour later which helps - but I've had appointments every Friday since we got back from hols and each time they've had to cancel. I don't even know why he wants to see me. I might ask them to leave it till the 12 mth check up.

Anyway, I never finished the bathrooms (only downstairs loo, lol) so I could do with a good hour on those tomorrow.

I've not had chance to read back much, I'm afraid, but FLYLADY hugs all round. Mwah x

Evening all

Just passing through, doing even less flying than when I was doing the lists so feel a bit of a fraud! Busy with the paid stuff, yesterday I had the exams inspector and the fire alarm go off whilst I was trying to run AS level exams.

Bring back the sunshine tomorrow, I need to do my paid gardening job.

Hope you are all fine and dandy, I shall return.
