Morning all,

Natty I am still thinking of you and Dave, hope everything is improving for you xx
Piggers I am sorry to read you have this, take it as easy as you can love. I read a fascinating article in a scientific journal about this being a very tentative step towards "them" testing how effective a virus could be in biological warfare, I am certain this was man made.... just my views though 🤐
Jazee how are the dogs today?
Round a new 🚗?! How exciting! Have you named it? 

YL - good morning love, hope today is better for you xx

I have a headache for the third day running but my diet and lack of fresh air has been terrible so I'm not surprised. DS back to school today ☺️☺️ DD gutted about the news yesterday. Don't worry though, we can go shopping soon and to the pub... priorities..... I had a big meltdown last night about all of this. Anyway, I digress as usual.... 

Car needs to be in the garage at 8.15am then we will walk to school, I have loads of work to do and the house really needs a lick and a promise. I also have to list some bits on eBay, really need funds, payday on Monday.... 

Will pop back in later xx

Morning all

Ive started paid stuff (just making second cuppa) dailies, wm x1 and a quick tidy of the lounge all done.

Its looking like a busy one so not sure how much more flying I will get to do. 

Have a good day, GWS to the poorlies, hugs to those in need x

Good morning!
I am up, dressed & breakfasted. I have checked the bank accounts & emails, put on the DW and put out the chicken carcass & some very old sprouty potatoes in the food bin as it is bin day. All other food is composted, so I don't put out a food bin often. 
A change of plan for the day. My mum was going to pop over, and we were going to the allotment (sd, of course), but it is now raining so hopefully we will do that Saturday instead. 

Yesterday went well (1st day back at work). We spent the day in the garden and playing in the summerhouse. I am so glad I sorted it out the other week! 

Today I am going to do some indoor jobs and some admin.
Welcome to newbies, and GWS wishes to poorlies. 
Have a great day everyone!

Morning lovelies,
Glad it's the lounge today, mine is looking quite shabby at the moment! Doesn't help that there are several bags of charity donations taking up lots  of room.....when they may be accepted is anyone's guess! Will clean/tidy round them for now but I'm not sure how much longer I can take holding on to then.

I'm stumped with the something nice for the children bit, not because I don't know what they like but we either can't do it or it involves buying more stuff for the sake of it and they already have enough stuff 😬

Positive vibes all round x

carpet picnic?  garden picnic? socially distanced meet up?

MeandThe2, I was thinking of a treasure hunt: each of you makes a set of clues  that leads around the house and garden with a small treasure (edible?) at the end of the trail.

So far today I have
- checked finances and discovered that the account that i wanted to be closed has been done, but the bank had not informed me 
- emptied bins
- S&S'd kitchen
- got dressed (that's an achievement in itself today)
- S&S'd bathroom
- tidied bedroom
- checked my strawberry pots and picked one fruit that has been attacked by a slug that I can't find     Lots more coming on
- fielded two phonecalls
- sent an email
- made leek'n'potato soup for lunch
- played with Rosie

We had a kitchen disco with pizza buffet

We had a cinema event and watched a film with popcorn and haribo in the dark

We had a tidying event and stripped wallpaper
We tried on clothes to see what fits (called it a fashion show)
Facepaint day? Baking? salt dough? Pasta models (Ancient tribal jewellry)? Write letters to friends and family.. you can go for a walk and be postmen? learning something new.. sewing, crochet, french knitting?

I have 4 binbags for charity shop and 2 huge boxes of toys too.. my shed is getting quite full.

I've not been able to do a thing this week and OH set off driving before I was properly seated yesterday because he was pee'd off with me because my mother kept me rabbitting for an hour.. as a result he has really hurt my hip.. now my hip is quite picky and will only be less painful with diclofenac.. which can not be taken with this stupid virus so now I can't stop coughing, my hip is agony and I barely got any sleep due to the combination.. I'm going to be a delight today.

On that note.. love and to Natty and Dave and also Mr and Mrs Wolf

Mogs fed.
Twinkle was up disgustingly early and has now been asleep in my bed for 2 hours.

Washing staying out due to rain..

My front room is a disgrace and I hurt too much to deal with it .. I might find a spade and drag everything out and everyone else can tidy it. None of it is mine anyway so I'm not even being unreasonable.
Dot being vile again today.

Soil dropping down and seeds showing no sign of life atm.

New curtains, ironed and hung up.

Cleaned up mess from builders who told me 'we have cleaned up' clearly their idea of clean is not mine! light fittings cleaned.

Left over paint in car to be returned (about £56)

Brown bin and welcome letter delivered by the local council.

Cat taken to vet for annual jabs etc, he then spent the afternoon asleep which is most unusual and he has been pestering to go out.

Cleaning of windows inside and the frames tomorrow............

Hi all, feeling better today asb, thanks hun x

Really productive day at work but DH has been home and he does interrupt me a bit!  Quick hoover around before tea, exercise class first thing.  Get well soon Pigpen, tidying with a spade, I like that idea x

I am pretty much done for the day, and its only 6.25pm!

Where has the day gone!
The washing which I put out to dry overnight was lovely & dry this morning so that was FUPA.
Changed the bedding, 1 load has been washed & is out on the line now, I will put another load in to wash so that it can be pegged out overnight.
WUDUPA.
Placed some online orders for bits & bats for the hot tub.
Did our ‘fat club’ zoom call & managed to get slimmer of the week! (I must stay focused so that I continue in a downward trend! 😁).
Now to go & make some frozen yoghurt bites! 😁
