Morning all, I taught my first lesson yesterday evening, a conversation group. Went ok but having to wear masks doesn't improve dodgy pronounciation and understanding.
Home all day so hoping to get some flying done.
Bed made, clothes picked up, windows open
See you all later9 -
Morning xx
Everything crossed for kaz xx
Oh, if I'd known you were all awake too I'd have logged on. I could have got up at quarter to four but made myself stay in bed until quarter past six. So I guess I'm going to be mardy tired again this evening. As Mum used to say: 'It's going to be a long day'
The usual morning routine here.
Have a good stay. Stay safe.

Good morning all
DD and DH decided to chase a moth around the upstairs in the early hours. They apparently missed it. I then was wide awake.
Up ,dressed to look respectable and bag packed. WM is on, so DH can sort that out onto the line later. He emptied the DW last night, to show that just very occasionally the message does get through.
Must get going. Have a lovely day all, and still crossing everything for Kaz.9 -
Me again
My dailies are done, I’ve also done litter trays and level one in both bathrooms, DH has just gone up to undo my good work in the en suite but hey ho, it never lasts long! WM is swishing and my early meeting is already finished. I will peg out and maybe do a couple more jobs before starting paid stuff again... take advantage of the house being cool at this hour!
take care all, back again later x8 -
morning all!
piggers - thanks for your wise words, I shall leave him to it I think, he is very resistant to pressure of any sort so I think your suggestion is a good one.
I didn't make it to the garden centre yesterday, but I did order some raised beds off amazon, I'm turning part of the garden into a veg patch - very exciting!
My list for today:
- do the bathroom - yuck
- unload DW
- Finish big cardboard sort out
- phone doctor re DS
- activate new credit card
- trip to garden centre
- cook lunch
- clear up from lunch
- sort out card protection stuff
- do some bear crocheting
- cook tea
- clean up from tea
Have great days everyone,

Just been around all the house putting odd things back where they should be, books, shoes, cardigan ....... and it has made a huge difference, I straightened the cushions and throws and the whole place is looking so much better, dare I say even nice. And what's more it only took me a few minutes. Maybe you lot are slowly managing to teach me how to look after my house. I even found myself taking the empty milk bottle out to the recycling bin rather than putting it beside the bin to go out later!
Thank you all
Now having coffee and internet time before putting lunch on, but it is all prepared and kitchen wiped down after so looking good.9 -
After my early start I am flagging a bit, but I have:
- done x1 WM which is on the line
- cleared up 'Steptoes yard' down the side of the house, looks so much better
- sent a collect plus parcel back
- some admin
- unloaded DW
- poo picked
- visited the bakery
- attempted to visit the tip, waste of time, they had been queuing since 7am apparently!I need to pack my bag for tomorrow, clean the woodburner (last used about four weeks ago and still full of ash 😏), and then will rest this afternoon xx8 -
