Been clearing Ragwort on the Downs today, so no indoor flying done.
Doing the same again tomorrow, so will probably be [strike]collapsed in a heap with a large Gin[/strike] resting tomorrow evening.
Himself is off to Europe tomorrow, so I'll have to clear up the kitchen and wherever he's dropped the various bits of Getting-Ready-To-Leave-On-Tour Detritus, rather than doing anything particularly coherent (not that I'm going to be after a 2nd day on the Downs, either). Weird thing is that, although I'm doing a lot, I'm nowhere near as in pain or exhausted as I am after a day at work. I guess that proves it's a toxic environment I need to be out of ASAP.
Just have to find the money to do it from somewhere, I suppose....[glares at OH]I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -

I've done no flying today.
I said goodbye to my darling little black cat after he was hit by a car and the vet said his injuries were too bad.

Oodles of (((hugs))) to you Dizzy.
(((Hugs))) also to Natty, atb, dancemum and anyone else having a hard time atm :grouphug:
Bossy, sounds like you all had a lovely start to the hols :j
You will have things straight in no time, mrs-mp!
Today I have
- sorted all the data for 50+ charity donation thank-you letters
- done a long walk with Rosie to the olden barley field
- baked a SW "carrot cake" which DH likes very much and finished decorating a coffee cake that I had in the freezer
- cleaned all through downstairs, including cleaning windows and sills in and out
- did our main meal at lunchtime
- moved chairs outside into front garden
- laid DR table
- dashed to the local shop for strawberries
- took Rosie for another short walk
- welcomed about 8 of the Old Wives (who brought lots more cakes) and lots of neighbours and other people from the local church to a fundraiser for Christian Aid, organised tea/coffee/P1mm$ and strawberries and cream, while DH ran his G-gauge railway with James, Emily, Thomas (for the children's pleasure, of course) and an American loco: we made £85 for our nominated charity
- did lots of WUDUPA to keep up with the demand for cups and plates
- when they all went, brought in the chairs
- froze much of the leftover cake
- emptied all the kitchen bins
- took Rosie for her last walk of the day
- collapsed onto sofa at 10.00 with a cuppa and promptly fell asleep
Tomorrow we shall do much of the same, but with just the leftover coffee cake and strawberries (and not fundraising), for 6 - 8 people from my placement. Fingers crossed for fine weather again :cool:
DH's car has to go in to the garage at 08.30, and I need to visit A1d! on our way home. We have almost run out of fruit and veg :eek:
I want to deal with the letters frog in the morning and need to deliver leaflets in the evening.
See you sometime x0 -
So sorry, Dizzy0

Aww Dizzy (((hugs)))
Bedroom looking MUCH better, edges of carpet look clean for the first time ever (who knew?) and stuff flung. Still a bit of the heap to sort but far less ominous.
Sweet dreams all
Bother - meant to empty vac as bin men due tomorrow and we must be first (road we branch off is Wednesday). Am actually appalled that is almost full again - must be my efficient and effective carpet edge hand brushing.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
