  • Evening all x


    Was meant to be on 11-8 today at work but it was quiet so I got away at 6. Managed a couple of loads of washing and flung them on the line and a quick s/s of the LR and Scullery before I left for work. Just about to iron the school stuff as they are back tomorrow. :dance::dance::dance: I may have my sanity returned as I'm going mad listening to the on going chorus of I'm bored.

    LW that's one lot of work please try not to over do it!
    CY :hello:
    Valli :rotfl::rotfl: and enjoy the seaside

    Feeling quite pleased with myself (and totally cream crackered and in dire need of a bath).

    I've Dys0ned the entire bungalow to within an inch of it's life, cut the back lawn and pruned three overgrown and very untidy bushes. The green wheely (garden rubbish) is now full, which is great as it's bin day tomorrow.

    Also found a load of defunct paper rubbish lurking in my desk to go in the pink sack, so that's pretty full now.

    It's scrambled eggs for dins (still on soft food) and hopefully Mr LW will run me a bath once we've eaten.:o

    Please take it steady, no point having everything done if you're too knackered to enjoy it.

    Lol at you explaining the pink sacks, I really miss not being able to put textilesin them

    Thanks for you comments x My mum wants me to be her executor but my Dad had gone for a nap so I will have to visit another day. I should be ok with it as I used to be an accounting technician. I have a problem though. My 2 sisters probably won't be too pleased.

    Parents' kitchen swept.

  • Evening all,

    Done nothing to speak of apart from paid stuff and a bit of half hearted wiping of worktops. Dizzy I know where you are coming from, today was one of those days for me too. Just about to weigh myself and it's not going to be good. No energy. Yorkshirelass there must be something in the air, I had a meltdown at work today. Hope you are feeling better x (I'm looking at job websites).

    Morning!

    Decluttered 4.5 pounds at SW last night :T think my water retention from previous week is resolved :rotfl:

    Then went to Mr A on way home, so didn't get in till nearly 10pm, but I have stuff in the fridge now so no need to break off from paid stuff today - apart from a spot of flying...

    Right, the alarm has gone, must get up! WFH so might not get dressed yet ;):p

  • Morning everyone - well done Bossy - that's a brilliant loss - shows what happens if you keep going!


    I am hoping to get to under target range today as we are away for a long weekend with friends - so it could be expensive - money and weight-wise!!!


    Busy day today at SW this am for vol job and weigh-in but had a storming day yesterday, washing x 2, ironing x 2 , packing started, things for charity event I am organising done too as well as lots of paperwork. The house is starting to look better but need a good week at home to do it - and that just won't happen.


    DH much improved so my worry about throat cancer can go away - DF at ch shop has it so foremost in my mind and I am a worrier!


    Hugs sticks and spoons where necessary and please LW - don't overdo it.


    Happy hols to those going soon.
