roundtuit

Pans and baking trays DUPA; baking tray (the one retrieved from under the table) flung

H2H - made a start in the bathroom :T (finally). Made A Difference to the hand basin and toilet - not perfect but definitely better than they were

pigpen I like quorn too. I stopped eating meat two years ago, but I've never tried tofu, so can't help you there - sorry.

thanks for all the support last night/this morning - don't want to go into details but found myself in a very difficult situation. Calmer for now but I'm way out of my comfort zone so will just see what happens but I appreciate you all a lot x

Rode then fell asleep upstairs. That's it for today. Tomorrow I will try harder!

Kiddies collected and are currently eating dinner. I am going to make my dinner now - I think eating earlier definitely helps the weight loss.

WM, TD and DW all going, and it will be early to bed all round tonight I think. Have lovely evenings all x

pigpen

listed a bunch of tat beautiful items on ebeast.. £30 happened in minutes.. love it when that happens. That is ready to post in the morning. OH going to gym in the morning then we are going window shopping then I am going to force him to take me for lunch.. he doesn't know about most of this yet

He seems to be getting worse with his separation anxiety. So much so, that he cried and barked all night, the night before last, until I came downstairs to sit with him, when he promptly curled up and fell asleep! To be fair, he was as quiet as a very huge mouse.

Kelpie has always had borderline separation anxiety and was fairly okay until Christmas, when we spent several four to six hour periods out of the house over about three weeks. That, coupled with the change in the daily routine, has put him on edge to such an extent that he's started barking if I even go upstairs to the loo. I think the disruption of Christmas is just too much for dogs. Lots of *dog calming vibes* heading your way and I'm going to plug an adaptil puffer in for a few weeks for him, I think. And maybe use the thundershirt again when he's left on his own as he will be tomorrow.

WM x 1 and I'm just about to start TDing it all as the forecast is grim as far as the eye can see, while I make a veggie dinner for us. I prefer veggie food and love quorn - meat's just a habit for me, really.

Dizzy and HB our little dog is suffering with a bit of anxiety too. He isnt settling on a night either and we just have to leave him whining (thankfully no neighbours on that side of the house!). He has always been fine about being crated on a night but now he is chewing his blankets and attacking the crate. We have tried everything, extra walks to tire him out, adaptil, heater, radio etc. He is on steriods and I dont think that helps.

I love veggie food but am not keen on Quorn, just can't get on with the Quorn mince. I eat a lot of fish but very little red meat.

So ... up early to go to the gym, paid stuff no. 1, ran around with the cordless vac, loos scrubbed, 7 shirts ironed (yes I counted them), bed made. Lamb hotpot in SC, I had fish pie. Have forced myself to do an hour and a half on job no. 2, going to try and do another hour.

Hope whatever is going on resolves itself quickly Mumof2. Hugs to anyone else in need.

Hi All Flyers

I have been meaning to rejoin you all since the beginning of the year, but the dreaded lurgy has knocked me sideways so it has taken all my effort to do anything never mind flying.

Antibiotics are now finished, but been prescribed antihistamines, decongestant and inhaler for the next couple of weeks.

I have a flying plan in place, is that a flight path? All I need now is the auto-pilot switch to take over but as that is not going to happen it looks like it is down to me :eek:


H2H
Declutter books, but need to find where to sell them as Ziffit does not want them, lots of recipe books and gardening

Declutter loft, head says do a car boot sale, heart says just take to CS

Keep washing and ironing up to date


Slinky
Joined SW January 2017, but only lost 9.5lbs in all that time Ideally need to lose another 4 stone. Based on results so far, could still be there in 2023 :rotfl:



General Flying
Do at least Level 1 each day


I hope everyone is keeping well, lots of regulars still here and many newbies or returners.


Natty, Valli, Thank you for doing the Fred each week

Pigpen, your family are just so cute

LW, Doing your bungalow every 10 days is way more regularly than I have been doing. If this is what you need for your health, please do it and do not disappear. We need to see the doggy tales

Dizzy, I hope you are getting settled in your home

Mumof2, Calming vibes for you


Off to cook dinner, Spaghetti and Meatballs in Arrabbiata Sauce, hoping chilli and garlic kill this lurgy

Hungry? When I was on the things, although physically, I felt much better, I wanted to eat All the Food; I think that animals are sometimes given them specifically to increase appetite as well. And the Idiot Floofballs are a PITA at night when they are on wet food rather than dried, as it's not as calorie dense - give them crunchies and they shut up and go to sleep, rather than running up and down the stairs, getting hysterical over the foxes and other cats minding their own businesses outside, howling at the closed bedroom door or, if we've forgotten to close it, leaping up and down all over Himself's head and the bedroom furniture.

Evening all and welcome back Gilly :hello:

Had a reasonable day but not much flying

Did dailies
Spanish lesson done
Cleared out my old painting stuff and decided what to chuck/keep.

We have a load of CDs we want rid, so sat today and loaded them all onto Magic Magp*e to see how much they would give us. The final offer came to........£3.17 :rotfl: So they are all in a bag to go to the CS next visit.

Hugs, sticks and spoons all round
Hope you all staying warm and safe and have a great Thursday
