    Hoovering and sweeping done. No time for mopping. Just making myself look human to go out to dinner.

    Catch you all on the new thread.

    Another one here with grass that needs cutting but it's too wet. Hopefully it'll get done this week some time.

    Mr LW is on leave this coming week (he has to use it up or lose it) so Flying will be very haphazard - I do have a few Frogs for him though, things I simply cannot manage by myself any more.

    The trick is to get him to think it's his idea to eat them. ;)

    Time for Harriet's meds and dins now, so ttfn. :hello:

    Grass cut (no sign of any tigers), leaves raked and swept, flowers deadheaded, bin filled :D
    I have loads of flowers out still, including a passion flower which has gone rampant this year (I love it!) and several different types of Michaelmas daisies and fuchsias (I love them too - they didn't like the clay soil in our old garden but have settled well in the sandy soil here). There are big fat buds on the hellebores, and a primrose thinks it's spring already :rotfl: but the star of the show has to be the salvia "Hot Lips" which is having its second or third flush of flowers.

    I have also phoned my SiL and done a bit more paperwork.

    Having promised DH cauliflower cheese for tea, I'd better go and cook it...

    I will be in this week

    My house will not be a tip

    My ironing pile will not be as big as Everest

    My meals will be planned

    I am saying no more

    I was in this week - Wednesday was my favourite day :rotfl:

    The downstairs is no longer a tip
    The ironing pile is no more
    The meals were planned and hopefully I will have lost some weight when I get to SW this week

    I had breakfast every day
    I took packed lunch to work every day
    I only had one chocolate bar all week

    BD is in the background, but I have been throwing sticks at it and having a SAD therapy lamp on my desk at work is definitely helping.

    DH has booked us a 4 night break to Morocco at the end of this month, I only wanted a long weekend in Liverpool but apparently Morocco was cheaper and he thought the chance of winter sun might be good for me :rotfl::rotfl:

    Evening all.

    Sorry I've got 2 days on the thread - but I won't be around tomorrow. We have a team event so I'll be out all day and not sure when I'll be back. So I thought I'd post early rather than late, hope that's ok.
