    Hi all

    Feeling a bit tired and flat today for no particular reason. Have checked finances and done two loads of washing - its still nice weather here.

    DS2 collected from GFs and a few bits of food shopping done. DS1 nagged to collect up dirty laundy which still hasn't appeared.

    Might just sit and chill for a bit.

    Back from a successful 3 hours in the park

    Only 1 meltdown. DS2 is reasonably happy.

    Pots washed

    yay.. another ebeast sale.. off to find that while Twinkle naps. The other 3 are as miserable as sin today... I may have to put them all in the bin.. Squeak has decided she thinks it is ok to hit Dot.. cue rage..

    I have massive pain in my hips today.. so the point I am angry and short tempered and being a witch..

    I have 1000 loads of washing to fold.. which requires standing.. and I do not want to do it.. I want to rip off my own legs and feed them to the neighbours dog..

    I have managed to deflea the 4 naughties, and 1 cat, 2x WM, hung 2 loads out, 2 loads in the dryer.. there is more to hang out but I ran out of room, and pegs. OH loaded the DW but he has just trotted off to work. I need to get Dot to a party for 2:30.. but I am feeling I need to delegate that to a large offsprung.. I don't think I can walk there and back twice.

    And I dealt with DS3's infected finger.. he is at the quack on Wednesday so I'll have them look at it if it is still icky.

    LW... you need one of these...
    Brilliant - thanks for that, link bookmarked. :o
    Mr LW was suggesting a flashing light thingy, but they cost silly money. That one looks affordable. :o

    Trying to get back on track after a totally manic week with one thing and another - what with Mr LW's appointment (the consultant shook Mr LW's hand at the end of the appointment - I think he was pleased to give someone some good news). We've also restocked the freezer after Buddy & Indi's stay; we'll be running it down again shortly as they are coming back for a 17-night stay in July. :D
    Also major money outage as we had the following all pretty much in one hit:
    • Car insurance
    • Mobility scooter annual service
    • Mobility scooter insurance
    • Prescription prepayment certificate
    So lots of £££ flying our of my purse. Thankfully we don't have to pay car tax! :D

    So I have four days to clean the bungalow before Dusty arrives on Friday.

    As it was nice yesterday, I did 2 x WM loads (Mr LW's clothes and the bedlinen), and got it all dry; Mr LW then cut the back lawn (makes it easier to locate the poo) - I felt guilty leaving him to work out there alone, as he hates gardening, so i went out and dug up some weeds and did some general tidying - my back knows all about it today!

    ETA: Just showed Mr LW the link Piggers kindly provided; product duly ordered. :T

    LW - so pleased to read the news about Mr LW :D

    Need to go and buy ratty food or I'll have some grumpy boys tonight!!

    Twinkle snoozing, Dot deposited at party (DD3 took her) .. more drugs choked down.. so I am going to fill a binbag for the bin, maybe 2 .. and find my ebeast item to post and take 12 more pics and sort through my clothes.. They don't all fit and I shall aim to find 10 things to fling..
