    Happy Birthday Bossymoo! Hope the sun shines for you.

    Yesterday was wet and cold here, but today is brighter already. DH has gone to work on "his" railway, so I am left to my own devices again (and shall be tomorrow, too).

    I have plenty of work to keep me occupied, also a :coffee: meeting re my placement. I might just get out into the garden this afternoon, depending on what I achieve in the next couple of hours.

    Dailies are being dealt with, the garden is my RoD. I still have a big frog sitting on my desk.

    Posivibes to YL's DS1 and trinity's DH.
    :T:T:T to atb for persistence.

    (((Hugs))) spoons and sticks all round, as needed, together with a few fluffy mules for those who need them x

    Happy Birthday Bossy.

    Morning all. Just the dailies done here today and some paperwork, but today's list is done as I cleaned the boudoir yesterday.

    WM just doing first of 3 loads, should be able to get it on the line today.

    Right, paid stuff now.

    Have a great day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.
  • Happy birthday Bossy!

    Do menu plan and food shopsone
    Find mouse traps (oh dear oh dear )not done and should be urgent!
    Washer on, HHI, DW on, Clear table and work topsall done
    Anything I can from lists as house is a grotty dump.I did the first thing from Monday's list. Wow

    Thanks for the birthday wishes :)

    Bit of a tip here but decorator not coming till later so I've time to tidy round and get some washing going. No sun Ionafan but at least the rain has stopped :T

    Then I'm going for a mooch round dun3lm and a coffee as doors are being painted. It's looking good though, clean and fresh and more importantly, wipeable:rotfl:

    Must get cash today too...
    Bossymoo

    Away with the fairies :beer:

    I have flowers and fizz! And The painting has finished:)

    Looks lovely albeit no floor haha. All paid for (some of us still do ATB ;))

    Have looked around for a lamp, nothing I like. So will leave it. Washing looks wetter than when I put it out lol.

    I did tidy up though - will all be back to normal soon. Has much admiration for dizzy, it's only been a week and my hallway and I've already run out of steam with it!

    Hoping LW is ok too, that's one loooong holiday!

    Happy birthday Bossy! And mmm I am sure LW should be back by now ...

    Mad week here as ever. Have just run round with the hoover, swished hard floors, bleached loos and chucked a load of washing in. Lots and lots of paid stuff to do. Called at the v.expensive local shop on the way home and bought some frozen stuff to chuck in the oven for tea, just too tired to bother!

    Right - paid stuff - then I can have tomorrow off!
