    Hugs FFP wishing today is more peaceful for you all xx

    Just sat in conservatory with a brew. Had words with DD about telling tales :( she got DS in trouble last night and later admitted she lied :eek: so frustrating.

    WM is on, bright and rather windy here so will get the washing out soon. We're out for the afternoon so trying to stay on top of things here. Shopping booked for tonight since we have a bare fridge :)

    I filled in my calendar yesterday and I've got every last pic off phone and iPad and onto EHD so my phone is empty :T

    Decluttered!

    FFP - hope you have a quiet weekend with your OH.

    Pre op assessment at the hospital went well yesterday and I have the green light for the operation on Friday. Just want it over with now.

    Walked back through town. Treated us to a new summer weight duvet - we haven't had one for a while and I am sick of waking up sweaty. Put it on last night and it was a revelation.

    Third load of washing in the machine - all bedding so far. Sunny and windy here, so a perfect drying day.

    Plan for the weekend is to do a load of tidying up today and spend some time with DD2 tomorrow. Normally we watch cricket on a Sunday but they are away tomorrow so we have some girly time...

    Good news cycling - thinking of you.

    I'm still working away in the conservatory - it's possibly about half done!

    Right.. OH feeding pinks so I am off to fling some more gubbins .. the stuff can then go in the loft freeing up wall space for the 2 mirrors I've had loitering for 8 years! .. yes.. 8 years! I know already!

    I forced OH to bin 2 empty shoe boxes and put his comics in nice lidded boxes to go in the loft. We need more of these boxes.. I may need a day out to Ikea.. I'm getting quite a shopping list!


    Time to remove the gate at the stairs.. Pixie can open it so it is just a danger now.

    WM has been on all day so just got 2 more loads to do I think and all of it has dried on the line. Still plodding on with conservatory but losing the will to live with it a bit now!

    Thanks everyone I really appreciate it xxxxx
    I've had a couple of hours sleep something to eat, caffeine and nicotine and I'm feeling nearly human. OH has managed some soup and is chilling on the sofa. I've been to SiL to pick up DD got soaked in the process the rain is torrential and the wind would blow you away. Phoned DS1 to tell him about his dad just in case someone tells him so I just reassured him everything ok and there is no need to come home.
    I'm on my third load of washing, second of TD and some bits on winterdyke. Washing up done and a quick s/s of Scullery and the LR. So glad I'm back with the program otherwise I would have been mortified when the paramedics were in, a fortnight ago you couldn't have seen the carpet in my bedroom.
    I'm planning to get a pillow, stick on a film for us all and just relax.

    cy loving healing vibes coming your way xxx
