Thats it, real life is postponed, I would much rather spend the foreseeable future in the Maldives with Round. Anyone care to join us? I am thinking about ordering one of those jugs of cocktails that nearly knock you off your feet just by breathing in the alcohol fumes, then we might find a bar playing tacky disco music and dance the rest of the night away.
(This is preferable to dealing with a very sad and teary 19 year old who misses his girlfriend. I want to say something to make it better for him but I cant).

I’ll meet you at the airport ladies. I’ll be at the airport bar with a bottle of fizz ready for us. Seriously, I cannot imagine ever feeling properly relaxed again, it’s been so long since I’ve felt that way. Is that stupid? How has life become such a constant battle?
Flying - I’ve decluttered the children to bed 🤷🏼♀️12 -

I’ve packed my bag and am ready to join round’s flight. Don’t mind me if I don’t sport an itsy bitsy bikini, as 1. I don’t think I have EVER been built to sport one and 2. the slinky scales got their own back at me this morning and upped the weight by a couple of pounds.This morning I spent 3 hours at the allotment. Sorry, GI, but no dig will have to wait its turn, as there have been too many set backs this year to start with that. As my allotment NDN was also there, I had to move to my other plot (yes, I am mad enough to have 2, but in my defence they are smaller than your usual sized plots) to keep the acceptable distance away.
DH and I did a quick furniture shuffle after lunch. More to follow tomorrow, apparently. LR given a quick vac, then I escaped to the greenhouse for an hour or so. HM pizza and salad from the greenhouse for dinner, then the rest of the evening has been in pjs with cups of tea in front of the tv. And packing for the flylady trip away, of course.10 -

shhhh piggers hasn't noticed the wardrobe lock is bu$$ered
flyladies - listen very carefully, I will say this only once - we'll meet at border control and change all the signs so that piggers unwittingly joins us in MaldiviaHow's that for a cunning plan?
I'm going to bed. If anyone sees sanity in the night - it's mine!!!!
Sweet dreams

Morning all
Ive been awol for a few days, I’ve been following along just not up to posting. Dailies and work stuff only done in the week.
Yesterday I found some GUAG, turfed DH out of bed early and we cleaned the house from top to bottom, I did WM x 3 which all dried on line, made pizza from scratch for supper and had a couple of hours reading my book in the sunshine in the conservatory.
I feel better today now that the house looks better, I do still have the kitchen floor to mop but that will be done after tonight’s supper.
The flylady holiday sounds like a marvellous idea... can I come?
Todays plan is more washing and garden jobs, I shall be making a start as soon as my cuppa is finished... x9 -
Morning all. Apparently the Maldives is really boring and life here is so exciting at the moment, so not sure if I'll join you all.
Today I'm not planning to do a lot as it is Sunday after all.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.10 -
Good morning!
Yep, I am still in fading with my phone & reading a magazine 😊 In my defence, I am charging my f!tb!t, so there is no point moving if it doesn't count!! 😂 DH has been out for a run, and is now cooking breakfast, so I may get up in a mo.....
Today I will mainly be gardening either here or at the allotment. My goal is no-dig, but the weeds in one section are winning, and sourcing cardboard & compost is a problem, so I may have to rethink. It does work, and weeds are easier to deal with in the nd beds. I also need to transport the old raised beds to the allotment somehow 🤔
Narc0 try planting the excess peas in a tray for pea shoots. They are apparently really tasty in a salad 😊
Ok - I need to get up & dressed now and start the day. Have a good day everyone!9 -
Morning xx
Badcat - you are more than welcome to join us
Jazee - the real Maldives may be boring, but this is a virtual holiday in Maldivia - accessed via the back of pigger's wardrobeIt can be anything you like. I'm thinking of exploring Petra in neighbouring Jordania today. A beach holiday isn't my thing either. I hope you have a great day too. Do you think it might be read a book Sunday?
WM has been swishing away and has now stopped so
Round 1 =
get washed and dressed
change towels in bathroom
set WM swishing with towels / tea towels
