    aaaargh

    so DS, who I have been [STRIKE]asking[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]begging [/STRIKE]nagging to sort out his 2 wardrobes and MANY drawers for over a year has blitzed his room today..the day I am at work ALL DAY. The washbasket, empty this mornign is overflowing. My black bin is FULL and ha hasnt sorted it's all gone in there, even recycling. Apparently he created so much dust that he has had to COMPLETELY change his bed...probably because he didnt make it fist and sorted onto sheets:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    still at least carp has been flung

    hope all are well

    (couldn't do it last week when i could have sorted rubbish properly and got stuff washed and dried outside...could he?)

    Indoor flying gave way to outdoor gardening this afternoon. Got the hedges in the back garden trimmed, the grass cut and strimmed and bird feeders refilled.

    Big sticks thrown to BD's Katiecat and JillD.

    Hope everything's ok in Natty world.

    Sending hugs to all.

    Froddy, is everything OK?
    Another one wondering how Frodders is, please let us know xx

    Hi everyone - and thank you all for your PMs, lovely comments and for thinking of me. I handed in my resignation - at first the Head said she wouldn't accept it, then tried to talk me out of it (including by telling me I couldn't just sit indoors all day doing nothing!!) and eventually said to leave it with her and she'll she what she can do. So I don't have an answer and am playing her waiting game . . . . .

    Flying wise - I have cleaned one ratty cage and did the washing up and one WM load.

    Hugs for all xx

    Morning all. I'm throwing sticks for your BDs too.

    I have a poorly Poppet here this morning after her op yesterday. She's taken it worse than any other dog I've had. So my tasks for today include lots of washing and cuddles in between the paid stuff.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Morning,

    Hugs froddy can they really refuse to accept your resignation? Hope you get answers soon xx

    About to start the day here, in more rain <rollseyes>. Will exercise my right to vote, clean the conservatory, attend an appointment at lunchtime and have a study afternoon I think.

    Hoping football is cancelled later :eek:

    Have 2 extra kiddies after school tomorrow so will plan food too...

    Hope you all have a good day xx

    Morning All

    thanks for letting us know Frodders, keeping everything crossed for you x

    Quick visit from me, DS got up at 5.30 so why on earth are we running late?! Brekkie scoffed, DW and WM on. Two hours paid stuff this morning, DS at my grandma's for the morning, then home to do the lists.

    Yet more rain so another drive to school beckons.

    Have fab days all xx

    (((Hugs))) for you and Poppet, Jazee.

    Thanks for the update Frodders. I hope the situation is resolved to your satisfaction very quickly.

    I don't know why your kids prefer sausage rolls to pies, Pigpen, but I do, too. Love a sausage roll, can't really be doing with pies.

    No Valli, he couldn't have done it last week, obviously.

    I hope everyone has the time to vote today.

    Sodding lodger let the baby seagull out into the rain which has infuriated me. Why do people have to interfere in things they know nothing about? Poor little scrap was silent, soaking wet, huddled under the rabbit hutch on the sodden ground. Not sure how much longer it would have survived, to be honest. Now safely back in the dry on its nest with a tummyful of warm pilchards squawking its head off.

    Carpets sucked, things tided away where it shows. My office is a tip but that can wait until next week.
    Better is good enough.

    Work done, visit to grandma done, voting done, laundry in TD, broken fidget spinner taken back to the shop and just scoffing leftover curry for lunch :o DS has had spaghetti hoops :o:o

    Need to empty DW then look at the lists.

    Jazee
    - so sorry to hear she isn't good today. Our dogs have always been back to themselves the next day so it is a worry, Hopefully lots of cuddles and treats today and she will be right as rain tomorrow xx

    Onwards! x

    My new kitchen is coming on,but it's wearing washing up in the bathroom.I must go to the shops and buy food that can be cooked in the microwave.
    Thank you for the lists Natty and Valle.

    There is always a great feeling for a woman getting a new kitchen. Congratulations. Happy cooking.
