    Morning all

    Sunny and hot already in the land of dust.

    Managed an hour in the garden yesterday evening, enjoyale at the time but the itchy bites I now have are not a good reminder of it.

    WM is on. Going to do 5 minute resuce in the kitchen then give the bathroom a quick clean before my shower and the paid stuff. Will pop into town after that to look for some bits for the street party.

    Come back pigpen - your flylady friends want you!

    It wasn't on yesterday's plan to go and help DS2 and DDiL2 (with DGS4 - DG3 was, thankfully, still with his other grandparents) move into their new house, but DS got the sicky bug and couldn't do much, while DDiL is still feeding greedy DGS4 who does now sleep for a reasonable amount of time at night but is constantly hungry all day.

    I had never been to their new house, and I have now found the bit of G00gle Maps that is absolutely useless because they've got all the directions and road numbers wrong in the area roughly between the town where we live now and the city where I used to live BF (Before Flylady) - I got lost for 20 min in country lanes with hedges so high that I couldn't even navigate by the sun! On a 50-min journey that was a long detour! But I managed to find it eventually and spent 3 hours sorting the kitchen, the airing cupboard and their bedroom. Fortunately no cleaning was required, as the house was spotless :D

    This morning I am staying firmly at home, trying to catch up with my own flying and in particular clearing the gubbins in the study bedroom. Perhaps I can persuade DH to put up the sunshade on the decking? U3A Family History group, a bit of shopping and a quick visit to my friend are planned for this afternoon, and HHI this evening during L0ng L0st F@mily. Wish me luck - there's a lot to do!

    DH has unloaded the dishwasher so I have some clean spoons for LW, Natty and CY and anyone else who is in need of one. (((Hugs))) all round to everyone in need xxx

    Oi get those negative thoughts out of your head! Your OH isnt just with you for the girls.... he has a life with you too. Its a life he is not sharing with anyone else.
