Morning all

An 'at home' day planned today so will be gently flying all day. Need to shove a wash on shortly, DW already on. It's the last week of school so there are a few jobs I want to get done before I have the small people around my ankles constantly for 6 weeks!

First things first though, sausage butties

Have fab days all xx

Wow Dizzy, just caught up and your life sounds *slightly challenging* at the moment. I hope things have calmed down a bit and you've recovered from the electric shock.

Well done on the weightloss Dancemum.

I haven't been posting daily as I'd hoped I would this week but I have kept up with Flying (just) as I've been at a festival some days (words not music). Terry Waite was very funny on the subject of much loved grandchildren visiting Ionafan and I thought of you while he was reading that bit from his very personal account. Feel more than a bit humbled by what I've heard this week, tbh.

Will catch up on Flying today, and post when I think I've achieved something.

Morning all. I've done my Monday jobs today because we're going to Slimbridge tomorrow with DDs 1 & 2 and DGDs 2 & 4.

So, I've dusted, polished and vacuumed all through downstairs and up the stairs and washed the kitchen floor.

Washing out on the line, not raining yet! And it's drying quickly so hopefully all will be well

Cat had me up 7 times last night, after not even trying to go to sleep until 11.30 because the neighbours were still out in their garden.....

No wonder I always feel like a zombie.

Phonecall yesterday lunchtime... muuuummm.... I have to be out of my [student digs] by 12 tomorrow.. !!!!!! ... another weekend of no flinging. I have learned I can empty a student kitchen, communal living area and bathroom in 3 hours... why can I not do mine in that time? AND she got snotty when I said I want board off her.. she has been buying food and paying £70 a week rent and begrudges giving me £30 to cover her gas/electric.. I think I'm being soft on her!

laundry needs a rejig, I need to return 4 pairs of footwear to schuh and do a tesco run..

Polly.. my Pollycat had me up twice last night and Twinkle was up 3 times.. this is normal in the sty.

Sorry for disappearing again
Had an MRI scan Thursday..managed just over an hour before I lost it...was a full brain and spine scan..so not sure if I will need to go back or not..OH was not happy with me.
Friday was a washout getting over Thursday and yesterday we went to Sundown for BabyDs birthday treat.

So far today I have washed dogs bedding and collars,,,and bathed the smelly furbabies...To whoever is allergic to dogs...I have 2 schnauzers...they dont shed and one of mine is pure white and I have a black settee.I am very allergic to dogs but this breed is perfect x

3 loads of darks on line..one bedding and a load of whites in now,Bathroom scrubbed...very necessary after dog bathing.
hoovered all through even under settees.

Need to see if I can order a new knitting pattern,,,of all things my cat has chewed the one I am using and Im three quarters through it.:mad:

Apart from usual tea making baths and packed lunches ..Think I have earned a restful afternoon..OH has gone out for a meal with his brother..so easy tea...boys want bacon beans and toast..Ill have a freezer rummage later x

I've done my Listy and it's got 30 tasks on it. In the olden days I'd have thought I should get all of them done in one day but I now realise this is at least a week's worth of work. Three things crossed off so far, progress on two others. Currently working on some minutes. Very boring.

Narc0lepsy can I borrow MrN? Despite being at home for 3 weeks now, and having a perfectly acceptably working finger (for everything other than surgery), it appears to extend to housework as well. Grrrrr

I know I'm very lucky; he is far more tidy and domesticated than I am, seems to clear up automatically whereas I need to think about it and make a list otherwise it would pile up around me without noticing. Well maybe I'm not quite that bad!

NEW THREAD

irate e mail from boss re missing data on reports. Which he's had for two weeks. Turns out I have TWO folders on my desktop and had given him the earlier, 'unfinished' folder ... aargh. I didn't think it wa spossible to have two folders of the same name!

Then, just to REALLY sweeten the day got a flat tyre. The same wheel when I had a puncture in in January. So a six month old tyre - and my 7th tyre since November! Anywauy, being (a) of sound mind and body and (b) a bit handy with a tool or two I changed it myself. *glow*
