Dinner is in the oven
Nap decluttered
Sun is half shining here.
Hope everyone is ok x0 -
Right, more puppy tidying to do. This time it's shredded newspaper all over the LR. Hope all this counts as flying.
Of course it does!Wise words HoneyBear - and also the 'defeated by the amount of stuff' comment. It can be so overwhelming one just does NOT know where to start - and never does.
Thank you, Valli. It's always the same, really, it just needs nibbling at the edges. Works every time and yet somehow we all forget. Or is that just me after all?
I've flown myself in a long hot bath and followed that with dealing with all the sanitaryware in the bathroom. Noticed while I was idling there that there appears to be a fair amount a fluffy growth festooning the upper reaches of the bathroom. Hey ho, I suppose I'll have to get a ladder out to poke the duster-on-a-stick around it all. That can wait; I'm done for the day. See you all on the next thread.Better is good enough.0 -

Hi all x
Sorry for my absence.......I've been so, so tired - think it's been a combination of everything going on right now and living with fibromyalgia also, I think the wind, (and energy), has been knocked out of my sails a bit. Never mind I will get my head into things
Looking forward to the new list and getting stuck into it - brand new list...brand new week...brand new start
Love and light to everyone and huge hugs to those who need or just want one

Evening all, I am back from my half marathon. It was a real struggle and I came it at my worse time ever (3 hours exactly). There was a point I thought of pulling out but I persevered and finished.
I'm hobbling a little now, but poor BF can hardly move.
I'll be okay in a day or two, it will prob take BF the entire week to recover.

Well done Raphael and bf on the half marathon
Valli hugs to you and all your family with extra pain free vibes for your sister.
Coping vibes for all who need them.
Have got loads done over the weekend, ds1s room looks so much more spacious and tidy now it's had a move round and a bed swap we picked him up from the train station earlier after his weekend away and he was really pleased with what we've done.
Have reglossed his bedroom door (again) touched up the landing paintwork, removed a stain off his bedroom carpet. Got a load of stuff that will take a Couple of tip runs to clear.
Will be off list next week as we have loads to do, tomorrow is all of mils diy, fences treating, porch roof leak fixing, and side render repairing then put the garden to bed for winter.
Then we have various jobs here, plus family visits, carpet fitting and the tip runs, I'll try and pop in when I can but think it will be a really busy week.SPC~12 ot 124

Evening all,
Just sneaking in to say we've had a very lazy weekend, but very nice.
It did get to the point this afternoon though where something absolutely had to be done. So I did a couple of hours of ironing and general tidying up, plus a hoover all through, otherwise I'd be starting the week on the back foot.
Raphael and BF very well done. I'm dragging myself out for a run once a week at the moment, my current aim is 5k without walking, so a half marathon seems amazing!
Right, I'm off to eat, have not had tea yet, as we went out for Sunday lunch, and i was still full up until about twenty minutes ago!
Also I must ring mum, she has promised me some juicy gossip!
See you all on the new thread xxxx0 -
