Morning all
Bossy Sorry to hear your course is cancelledI wouldnt be happy at the TA saying that either!
CY Glad you had a good day
Didn't get much done yesterday except for work. I wasn't feeling well at all so concentrating was difficult, there were a number of problems with my delivery once I unpacked it, my phone didn't stop all day, and the dog got clingy in the afternoon and kept wanting to sit on my knee! Its impossible to do anything with a border collie sitting upright on your kneeI went out to put calling cards through peoples doors at 9.45pm, thankfully except for 1 squeaky gate & 2 fine gravelled paths I didn't make much noise at all
Got home at 10.10pm, let the dog out, then chased DD to bed and went myself! Typically though as soon as my head hit the pillow I was wide awake again :rotfl:
Today is more work. I need to go to Mr A for ink and some top up groceries before I can do the work though and before I do that I need to have a shower. Seriously doubt I'll get any flying done with over 150 books to sort to go out tonight/tomorrow and another 100 need preparing so I dont fall behind again.

Off to write my shopping list. :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Morning all! Hugs to bossy - that is not good. No way should a 6 yearold be talked to like that! I do hope granny got your point over...
Managed to get to GP surgery to have blood tests done. Lovely technician managed to book my next 2 blood tests at the surgery, despite being technically booked up next week. I am delighted and very grateful. My last trip to the hospital for bloods cost £20 in taxis and I had to wait over an hour..
Thank you for the link lynnejk - I have made a note of it and will look later.:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

I've taken my LOL (lovely old lady) shopping. Been to the local market to buy some fish for tea tonight. DW has been unloaded and restacked.
DS3 has caught DH's lurgy. We had to leave early to get him some child friendly cold remedy to get him through school.
Just having a late lunch then I will tackle the kitchen which is in need of a good declutter. It's the hub of the house and everyone comes through the front door and dumps on the table, sofa or worktop.
I didn't feel right at zum8a last night and left early. I hope I'm not going coming down the the lurgy. I need to be on top form for Thursdays interview!0 -
Parcels ready to go.. Off to list more on ebay I think.. I'm utterly exhausted.. I have no idea how I'm going to get to 7pm and the graveyard shift tonight..
