  • Morning all

    Thanks for the list

    Hugs good wishes posi vibes sticks and spoons where needed..

    Mil has foot brace fitting this afternoon so need to get what I can done before work as there won't be any time afterwards. I can't honestly see the brace improving things as she's developed such a bad awing style I've slumping over her shopping basket wheelie thing that she's just not upright anymore and can't walk without it. But we will get it fitted and see what if any improvement it makes.
    Need to clear the lads out then get on.

    I haven't been able to read and catch up, but I know that Mumof2 could with a (((hug))) and *sleeping vibes* are needed for Mini-Frizzle.

    Had an exceptionally busy day for me yesterday and amanged to get the dy$0n around all of the rooms and areas that needed it, the shower room properly clean, changed the superking, and sorted random piles of gibble from hotspots everywhere I looked. Excellent. Back later to catch up.
    Better is good enough.

    Just got back from having my house valued; estate agent was really nice and friendly so that helped - I feel sad I'm selling it but it's just not big enough for me and the kids plus I'm going to need a lot of support if things do go ahead the way it's looking. Having a quick cuppa and then checking out a potential new person to work for - she's sent me a template and audio file to listen to and see if I'd like to help out. Need to try to gobble down some lunch before 12.15 meeting.

    Flying wise I've cleaned mirrors, windows, dusted and Mr Dyson is upstairs waiting for me!

    Bought bread on the way to nursery so was a few minutes late but I would rather be late than drag 3 children around the shop!!

    Food and a cuppa before I sit down because I'm not moving again lol

    Not the most productive morning
    I hand sewed binding on two long sides of the quilt, hand sewed two buttons on and machined the binding along the bottom ready to hand sew.
    Took a few bits into school, knitted beards, bibs I'd washed and some nail stickers I was giving away so a bit of clutter gone. I've bagged up all five binders full of quilting mags and a full set of all the templates ready to go to the CS on the next run.
    I've just kept one set of temples and the duplicate mags incase I want to quilt again along with the left over fabric as its too small an amount to be of any use with the magazines.

    Just about to have food with Dh now I've done work then I'll run the dyson round and get ready to take mil for her brace.

    Hugs to all that need them
    Mumof2 be kind to yourself, you have a lot of decisions to make.

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! Go DS3! :T:T:T

    (((Hugs))) to Mumof2, DizzyImp, and anyone else in need.
    Enormous nuking vibes to CY. Cross posted! I'm glad to hear you've got through the session well today.

    We had DGD1 all day yesterday, then the Old Wives' meeting with a very good speaker, and I didn't wake up until 8.50 this morning :eek:
    I have done dailies, decluttered 2lb at SW (after putting 1.5 on last week), cooked lunch and written a complicated email in German. That's all :o

    The sun is shining, so DH and I are now going out for :coffee: at a garden centre (or two) so that I can renew my discount card - which gives us 12 "free" coffees for £7.50 :money: - and spend some vouchers. We're both out this evening... in different places, of course, so I'll be walking and bussing.
