Morning all,
long day yesterday not home until 8pm so we are tired this morning and it's only Tuesday! Pack ups to make & petrol to buy so we will be off earlier than normal. Brew & face wash first. Have lovely days all xx

Morning all.  Hope you're all ok.

Doctor for me this morning, then some repairs to windows being done, meeting tonight but I'll fly too.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning ladies xx

Heigh ho, heigh ho - just four days at the paid stuff then I've got 12 days off woot woot. Priority will be to find a new-to-me car as Pip will not get through an MOT without extensive and expensive bodywork repairs... and that would still leave the leaky sun roof and the heater that doesn't work. Sad though as I've had Pip for ten years  

DS made me laugh yesterday: he said ' Mum, GF has put a holdall with all her bank statements into the Room of Doom because her mum keeps going through her things'. Even he calls it the Room of Doom now   Son of a flylady  

I'll do the usual: feed the birds, put out the recycling before I set off.

Have a good day
Rxx

PS Is it warm today, or is it me?

Morning all :wave:
Thankfully I've had a reasonable night's sleep and have just checked my phone to find that the person I was supposed to be meeting at lunchtime has cancelled - which is quite a relief, as today was going to be hectic.  I have plenty of other jobs to keep me occupied in the hour and a half that I've gained.  Now I just have to find an alternative time for the meeting later this week - and I am not giving up lunch out with my friend tomorrow, especially as we are planning to take Rosie to her favourite cafe in the forest, if the weather is kind.

First job after breakfast has to be prepping stew and throwing it all in the SC, then S&S and WM.  I should have time now to hoover through upstairs before I go out visiting.  And I must remember to get petrol, as I have to drive to Cathedral City this evening and need enough fuel in the tank to get home again!

(((Hugs))) spoons and sticks all round, as needed xx

Already back from docs and shop.  Dailies are done, one wash load is on airer and dogs are walked.  Going to do some kitchen flying while I wait for repair man.  30 mins till I can take more painkillers.

SHOUT OUT TO THE POSTIE...
I cried.. OH cried.. thank you from the bottom of my fluffy purple socks... I have a sneaky inkling.. (I'm good at recognising hand writing!!) .. but truly, thank you .. it will be paid forward when I can, I promise! xxx
I am, with support from the ed psych, swimming, SN teacher friend and swimming instructor, applying for DLA and hoping we can get her some support to put into her assessmentas a priority but to get extra hands so we can take the children out as a collective more often. Extra adult tickets, extra travel etc all adds up.. the worst they can say is no and that's ok but right now we need the extra physical support.

Boog sent off to her apprenticeship interviews.. We will have a future planned and moving towards but, oh my giddy aunt the whining we got.. 'my legs hurt/I don't want to go because there are people (Aspie kids are such hard work!), No one will employ me anyway because I'm too intelligent (yes we heard those exact words!)... it is a nightmare.. and to top it off it is eye screening day tomorrow.. honestly you would think someone got out the cat-o-nine-tails!!

Shower right now for me and then I need to get Twinkle ready for nursery.. she is currently in her pj's, watching youtube vids and picking her nose... oh to be 3!! lol

This afternoon OH is supposed to be taking DD3 to sign up for her college work experience but she is slobbed in bed so he is unlikely to have time now.. they were supposed to be going after the school drop off this morning.

OH is on his way back so I shall have him sort Twinkle while I sort myself and I may a 5 minute dash sorting clothes and stuff.

I am considering designating everyone a room to keep clean and tidy.. if they had to clean 1 or 2 rooms a week between 6 of us we could do ok I think. .. I shall speak to the geeks.

Out of the blue my ex-sister (the one snitching to cf) has messaged OH... I have her blocked on everything. I am not happy.. I will not have her weaseling her way back into my life I am not opening myself up to that risk again.

ooh.. he is back.. ttfn!

Just having 20 mins rest, kitchen is now packed up, except for 2 of everything so we can eat! and a few pans.

Loads of stuff in the cleaning cupboard chucked out, dried up stuff, out of date stuff, etc etc

I am not sure which FL has done what for Piggers, but reading between the lines, you are a true angel xxx

I am now getting very worried by this virus, as Italy is on shut down, reported in the papers suggest the UK is 2 weeks behind them, so that is slap bang in the middle of official moving dates, if we go on shut down, then what, ...................................I really do need for RL reasons this move to happen sooner rather than later..............................................

I am now getting very worried by this virus, as Italy is on shut down, reported in the papers suggest the UK is 2 weeks behind them, so that is slap bang in the middle of official moving dates, if we go on shut down, then what, ...................................I really do need for RL reasons this move to happen sooner rather than later..............................................

I can understand why you are concerned about it interrupting moving dates. That would be very frustrating. I'm rather delighted by the prospect of no school runs, no shopping and no people for 2 whole weeks.. that sounds like heaven.. sadly however it also is extremely unlikely because by the time it gets here everyone will have been exposed so a 'quarantine' would be utterly futile.. and given it is 2/3rds men dying and over 60's our government is going to improve significantly very soon with any luck..

See.. Pollyanna moments! haha

Boog back from his interview. So while we are dressed and still whining I am dragging the lazy dollop to the shop.. and post office and bank and chemist!!
