    Hi everyone, I had a much better nights sleep last night and woke up feeling so much better and brighter today, I hope tonight I sleep as well. Anyone not sleeping well has all my sympathy as this is a recent thing with me.
    Today has been just a general tidy up, with a quick clear up along the way as I have been out doing grandma duties and then walking dds dog for her.
    Tomorrow I'm tackling one/two kitchen cupboards and steam mopping the floor in there.

    Happy birthday for 15 mins.
    Hope Himself is ok.
    What a pain about your cards; we have both had ours "used" for buying playstation games in the US - when we were actually in Tesco in Essex......luckily got refunded quickly.

    Morning! Happy birthday Jojo - hope you have a lovely day x

    Another disturbed night here. Dunno what's going on in my head with all the weird dreams. Small and Tiny crept in to wake me up and show me Tiny's torn toe-nail. Lovely. I thought it was 3.15am but my watch had stopped. It was 7.02am according to my trusty Kindle.

    A day of pottering and dot-to-dotting planned. DH and Small have football training this morning and I have a bit of ironing to catch up with.

    Ooh, a Spanish Flylady holibob....sounds amazing! :T Hope you enjoy your time there Lynne x

    Happy Birthday, Jojo! Hope you get to eat what you like today and that you don't have to do any washing up.

    My plans for today (DH is off to play on the big railway):
    - finish off a service booklet for church
    - phone a friend
    - phone the carpenter
    - sort my study: I need to see if the carpet is still there, and I'm really cross with myself that when I got into the loft yesterday (which means pulling our bed out and squeezing through an Alice-in-Wonderland door) I forgot to put away the family photos that have been cluttering up the c-o-d for months :(
    - repack the package and go to the PO again; also post a missing jigsaw piece to DGS4 (it disappeared under the sofa when they were playing here on New Year's Eve) and a letter
    - go shopping in the next town: I've been wanting to replace our old duvet set for months, and now DH has worn a big hole in his pillowcase!
    - take Rosie for a walk
    - do some reading for my next essay
