Morning all
Well so far I've hung out a load of washing and sorted out some paperwork. Loads I want to do so I'll see how I get on.
Have a good day all
Hugs

Hope you lupus flare subsides quickly, LW, and that the NHS gets MrLW sorted asap.
Ah well - the bed has been changed and grubby bedlinen washed (WM has just cheeped to say it's finished. And Honey had a lovely walk this morning, as we didn't see any other dogs; she dislikes other dogs intensely.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Happy household here, DD2 home last night although she missed a junction on the motorway so I then spent a long time on the phone redirecting her. DD1 home this afternoon as it's her birthday today. BBA planned for this evening and roast chicken tomorrow. Also going to try and make a peanut butter and chocolate no bake cheesecake, sweet dishes are not my strong point so might end up running to the cake shop later!
WM, DW & WU all done so just want to push hoover round the main areas once I've finished cooking.
Hugs to all

*Healing vibes* for you LW and (((hugs))) all round for any Flylady whose feeling less than 100% today for any reason.
Up early to go and help set up the Foodbank Funday, to a friend's to collect worm juice which is now feeding the pear tree, and a quick visit to Dun**m to buy replacement net curtains to replacement ones the kittens thought were climbable. Before I even went out I'd showered, vacuummed the ground floor, unloaded the dishwasher, put everything away, and walked and fed Kelpie and the birds.
Lovely OH made me a bacon and egg sandwich and we've now repotted the Christmas tree and tidied up the yard, watered the pear tree some more, done WM loads and pegged them out, only another two to go. Superking and double bed remade, yard tidied and all the sweetpeas that are shooting up have been sorted and watered. I'll replant them in their final places later. I'm really short of pansies or something that will flower in the troughs, so when I go shopping this week I'll see what I can find. And I've got six foxglove plugs to plant out, too.
Have been invited to a neighbour's 70th this afternoon/evening so I need another shower. Boy it's hot here. (Someone setting up another stand at the Funday fainted.)
Did I mention that the lodger that was due to arrive tomorrow and stay for five months has cried off? I was dreading it - she sounded much too young, so I'm thrilled to bits. No idea how I'll manage without the money but I'm so relieved I'd rather live on baked beans for months anyway. I feel happy every time I realise She's Not Coming!Better is good enough.0 -
Been gardening for the last 5 hours, it looks so much better, loads of weeds pulled out, new bedding plants planted.
HM curry tonight for dinner

Morning :wave:
I must leave lurkdom and get back on to the wagon. I hesitate to do so as I've been coming home from work and burying myself in fiction - a NN gave me a bag of books: I finished another last night having curled up and read for most of the day. Next up is The Time Traveller's Wife - it's like a Lucky DipOnce read the books go in to the charity bag - so it's decluttering, yeah?
Unfortunately the flying fairy doesn't visit while I'm otherwise engaged, so we're descending in to squalor
... again
I'm finding the 'threatened' changes at work difficult to cope with so my anxiety is bubbling away - bad dreams and a BIG meltdown at a meeting on Monday( Oh well, now the powers that be know how I feel :eek:) But I know that a lot of you are facing tough, and tougher, times too. Mega-hugs and healing vibes being sent out in to the ether ...
I will bimble - anything else feels a bit too BIG right now. It's a start - and that's the hardest part. (It's physics - overcoming inertia and all that. I knew that O level would come in handy one day)
So: I'm up (yayyy :T); I've had a brew and WM is swishing.
Round 1 =
1. make the bed
2. get dressed
3. feed the birds
Teeny tiny steps are better than none, yeah
Congratulations to pigpen and mr pigpen xx
Love to all.
