Have read thread but not a word of it has stuck.
I have not so much a Black Dog as a Black Elephant.

Sorry I hear that. Hugs or doggy licks, whatever helps.

Bits and pieces done today and things look a lot better.

Just had a great spotted woodpecker in the garden by the time I had got the camera it had flown off...........

Hugs all round

Thanks for the positive vibes. Assessor seemed friendly. Assessment took 1 hour 40mins. Seemed to go ok but we won’t find out until about 4 weeks.

Ground floor dysoned dailies done.

Stick thrown to your naughty elephant LW x

That's good. Hope you get the result you want and the help you need xx

Today I have been mesmerised by the number of signatures on a Government petition going up and up - a great timewaster -
but I have done more washing (and folded it and put it away), cooked meals, written some cards, ordered more cards, wrapped some presents, and ordered more presents after consulting with my DD. Before I fall into bed I am going to iron 2 shirts, 3 teatowels and something else (I can't remember what) that was added to the pile, and also put out a couple of items to take to the CS when I go out for coffee with a friend tomorrow morning

I'll try to distract your elephant with a handful of carrots, LW.

Morning all.


About to start the paid stuff. I did the bathroom yesterday, so will try to get the study/office done today as it's become a dumping ground for Xmas bits.


Have a great day everyone.

Yesterday I cleaned kitchen, bathroom and hallway. Bunny hutch also got cleaned out. Made inroads in dining room. Wrapped Secret Santa gifts - they're HUGE! Mum was also doing some sorting and has given me some coloured card/paper - 3 almost full so they'll go into work. I do the only job where you take stuff INTO work lol. Ironed. Very impressed Mum was doing something yesterday given the date.
Overnight I have run WM, DW, and TD.
Now in bed with a coffee in my Spode Christmas tree mug.

Work this afternoon. This morning I want to put tea in SC and write Flylady xmas cards ready for posting. Might get dining room even tidier, too.

I really hope you get some answers and some help, Dancemum.

Skip load of carrots interspersed with a big pile of sticks for the elephant and the dog, Lamewolf. And this too shall pass.

I really must get started on Christmas.

I'm back to putting three things away every time I go into my office. This is going to take quite a while again because it's an absolute tip in there. I haven't bottomed it, so to speak, for many, many months.

Valli

rest of lunch prepped, tea prepped and in SC, tomorrow's overnight oats prepped and in fridge. Christmas pud etc put away as I have realised where they could go. DW and TD emptied.

There's no flying going on here just about managed to get the daily essentials done yesterday. Haven't stopped all morning but primarily doing animal stuff. Off to visit relative now so not much going to happen here today.
