Lovely to see you savvy 👋 Glad doggy is feeling better 🙂 They are so lovely but not a great benefit when trying to grow veggies 🤣 Great work on decluttering the tool shed & shed 👏  Everything crossed 🤞 that you can rebuild your business as quickly as possible 🤞

Basketcase - thank you, and I may do.

DD1 has been complaining about eye pain for months - didn't know if linked to her anxiety, her eyelids are drooping abit so she's been saying I need to sort!. Anyway today went with her to hospital and she came out with 3 sets of eye drops and going back in 6 weeks (v scratched cornea, v dry eyes and lumpy inflamed inside of eyelids) - previously been to A&E (gave her nasal spray) eye A &E referred her to headache dept and optician and optician minor eye conditions. She used eyedrops and can see so wonderful , and she's less depressed. Counting as a huge worry declutter - something wrong with her that can be solved!  Sorry for rant but realise been a real stress and I can now focus on me abit! 1846

Back after a week away to Whitby. Had a fab time with girlfriends. We were in a great space for social distancing and Whitby wasn't bad at all. I feel rested and happy.    I came back with only two new books and a vintage teapot.
This whole thread had moved along by lots of posts so I have just read the lot. Well done with your handwarmers MrsSD. 
While away DH got rid of DS2s motorbike out of the garage. This has been a major hindrance for several years. So another big item gone.
until next week.DD is home for the weekend ( may be the last one for a while as lockdowns start spreading around the country). So happy to see her.

1852 changed router as problems with internet, hasn't sorted problems but tidied wires and extension lead that is a better fit.

1852 found corner in cupboard space for summer woven bags and put summer shoes in it and flip flops in a shoe box - not coming out again this year.

Feeling abit overwhelmed by everything everywhere and not sure where to start...found box of cutlery in spare bedroom including 3 pairs of salad servers (non in the kitchen) - going to wash all and set some aside for DD1

Firstly hugs to TC77, as you're going through the wringer and to your DD1, hope the eyes get better really soon.

Out today a very large bread flour sack, the flour was re-bagged ( made 27 of them ) for future use. We looked like a couple of Fred's flour graders at the end though Plenty of daily detritus out too.

It can take 3 months to fully get over a general anaesthetic.  It's common to be weepy and tired for many days afterwards.

Thanks for this.  It explains a lot.  No wonder she's got nothing to fight back with.

Lol I can never keep up with the thread, tried my hardest last year, but this year I've had no chance especially when the site changed over   Ummmmmmm I have to confess to having an old motorbike of mine here too, it's no good to do up so has been sat on the drive for 26 years, behind my old car But really do need to sort those once I get rid of all the ex's stuff as the drive is getting worse, I've fallen over badly twice in lockdown because of it, grrrrrr!
