    Lino binned. Floor drying pretty quickly. Newspaper found under lino dated October 1993 - I think 22 years is long enough for lino that didn't fit properly and had a very visible burn Mark on where OH put a hot wok down 15 years ago.

    Gentle passing vibes heading to Pigpen's mum's dog...
    :jFlylady and proud of it:j
  • Pigpen - sending some gentle passing vibes to your mum's dear doggy.

    CY - from personal experience it's def best to bin the lino, more trouble than it's worth to try to re-lay it once soaked.

    And CY I'm pleased to hear that you had a good morning out, after a good consultation yesterday.

    Gentle passing vibes to your mum's dog, pigpen.

    Nice to read of lots of people flying well today. I have
    - decluttered my opthalmology appointment (mostly OK, back in about 4 months for further check
    - decluttered 4.5 lb at SW :D and DH managed 2.5 :j
    - bought a lot of food :p
    - felt very cold because of the rain, so we had yummy SC stew for tea and I began to get warm again
    - started checking and updating two more resource boxes.

    Tomorrow morning I will need to do a quick S&S all round downstairs and prepare food for evening visitors before I go to my vol job.

    My BD has retreated a little way off for the time being, so I'm just keeping a few sticks by me, but can offer (((hugs))) and spoons where needed x

    Hi all,

    A bit behind at the moment, not really sure where I am...

    Gentle huggles for poorly doggies
    Even gentler ones for CY, sounds like the hospital are on top of things xx

    One working day left here, which will be from home. I'll be using that time also to get back on top of the laundry - already done a hhi tonight on some bits that were hanging around, and got still more put away.

    Cases are on the floor in DR but realise they will have to move as mobile hair dresser coming Thursday. Gah. But garage / office is a fair bit clearer and I also have a charity bag to fill. So more space, then will vac, then move suitcases into garage tomorrow night.

    Obviously will need to do some paid stuff too. But lots is already ticked off that list and I won't be taking on any new pieces tomorrow, so just a case of wrapping up what's left. Feels manageable.

    School uniform supposed to be getting delivered tomorrow too - kiddies will need to try those on - which reminds me, DS must try his shoes on for me...
