    Lovely tiles pigpen

    Glad you got your paperwork sorted, CY I know it put my mind at ease once I'd re-done mine xx I'd have muscled in on your coffee meet tomorrow but I have a hair appointment...

    Paid stuff unfinished thanks to a *git* in another department who has not delivered what he said he would and nor is he returning calls. It's par for the course for him. So highly rated within his own team but an absolute b*gger for anyone else to work with. I have provided "feedback" and copied both our department heads so they are aware where the bottom fell out of the process. What an 'arris. Gah.

    Collected the wee ones, DS has lost his poppy wristband. Doh. Oh well. Took DD for dance rehearsal. She danced with her swan prince (he is just 4, aww) apparently in front of the bigger dance class as a bit of audience practice, I'm still not allowed to see though :D and teacher says she is going to look at the costumes cupboard but really just simple white leotard and tutu.

    Since then all we had time for was supper, pjs and story. Then I sent some more emails for work - I'll have to log on tomorrow. In between hairdresser and school meeting and beavers. And flying. There is a niff in the main bathroom. I've squirted bleach around but I'll deal with properly tomorrow. And I think the kitchen bin could be fresher.

    I'm sorry for the rambling, guess I'm thinking out loud. Life feels rather rushed and I'd like to slow things down. It's our "sadiversary" next week and I'm desperately trying to keep my diary free. If my page is blank, hopefully my mind can go blank too.

    Is honeybear around?

    Hope you both enjoy your meet up Ionafan and CY. Hope you stay 'normal now :D


    Sending you an especially large stick LW and a few hugs



    Like the tiles Pigpen - they look like a cubist painting :)


    Been quite busy today so :-

    Monday Mayhem - Living Room and Hall
    Wipe light switches, sockets (make sure they are not switched on!!)

    Tantalising Tuesday - Kitchen and Dining Room
    Clean oven if you didn't do it last week
    Get in a manky cupboard. Give it all GOOD scrub out before placing the things you need to use soon at the front, throw out everything you don’t want/need. If no messy cupboard do a food inventory!! Feel free to get carried away and do more cupboards!!!
