    :wave::wave:Hi all.

    FFP very scary. Hope DS is OK now.

    piggers loving does make you vulnerable. But it has its rewards. It's not really something we 'choose' to do.

    Glad it's bedroom today. It's about the only room in the house that does literally need a swish and swipe. Means I can give some attention to previous days as nothing got done yesterday. (Might have had something to do with not surfacing until midday:D - I'm sleeping a lot at the moment as my body sorts itself out after so many years of abuse) :D Poor Ozzie must have been crossing his legs (or gone in the garden) as I hadn't heard a peep from him.

    Better today. I'm up, breakfasted, washing is on, and I'm about to take Oz for his walk before this mornings Pilates class.

    Have a good day everybody.

    Morning all
    Pigpen hope you are feeling a lot more positive (and loved) today. I hope that things improve and you and your oh are at least talking. I love your knittings- it is very similar to a blanket dd2 crocheted for DGS in pattern and colour.
    FFP I hope that thing soon settle and your poor Ds has got over his shock.
    Hugs good wishes and posi vibes to all who need/want them
    I decluttered a box full of stuff from the kitchen yesterday for the bric-à-brac stall. I've actually got a spare shelf in one of the cupboards now. Also pulled a load of weeds from the beds in the back garden last night so they are looking much better, picked the first of the strawberries as well.
    Only normal work today so plan to get the list done as much as I can

    Better go and gee ds2 along so he's not late for school

    'See' you all later.

    Morning all.

    Bathroom and kitchen have been done up to now. Living room today for me.

    Dailies
    Shopping
    Wash the outsides at the front of the house.

    My neighbours embarrassed me yesterday. We have had no street lights since April. I saw suited and booted man looking at street light. I went out to see what was happening. He was explaining what was happening. Next door were verbally aggressive to him. Using the f word etc. doing this while holding the daughter who is about eighteen months old. Certainly not the way to get your point over or be a role model for your child.

    LMAO... OH was aksed a question about whether he wants me to source some orthotic insoles for his new shoes.. and he couldn't give me a straight answer so I kind of exploded a little... demanding to know why he could never give me a straight answer for anything not even what he wants for dinner and its really peeing me off and rar-rar-rar...

    I'm not quite sure where it came from but I appear to have a gap to fit more growls in now lol.

    Double pushchair left the building.. :D I need to find the silly bumper bar which is hiding, I put one with it without checking and it is the one for the bertini rather than this one so I need to get it found asap.. NOT impressed!! Their baby is not due for 8 weeks so I have a few weeks to find it!

    LOADS of appointments/hospital letters through today. :D
