On sit down strike here now too having been shopping, walked the dogs and hoovered through.  Dailies are  done and washing is online. DH and I are getting on each other's nerves today.

Morning all,
Hairdresser called to see if I was still ok for today’s appointment. We agreed to just have a good cut today, and to decide about colour but not actually do it for a couple of weeks. As she has been cutting and colouring my hair for 30+ years (eek!), she knows it better than anyone, and is dubious about me Going for Grey. We will see how this pans out later....

Fayolle thats exactly what I did last Friday. I went to the hairdresser to embrace the grey. But we ended up doing something else and it'll be a gradual grey changing. Especially as she thought bleaching my hair (it's dark dark brown underneath) would ruin my hair. So opted for blonde highlights all over and then a toner on top. And then that'll gradually be lightened everytime it needs topping up. 

Heres the pic

WM x 1 done and on line

Lip balm SF30 bought

Kitchen tiles picked up, ready for next week, as it is strip out the kitchen week, rebuild it, so what fun, and no doubt more dust.

(work tops are here, waiting on the rest of it)

Got a large pot of deep gap fill, for the ceiling in bathroom and ensuite, so rubbed down holes, and put in the first layer as per instructions, wait 1 to 3 hours, rub down again if needed and fill again, so now waiting 

Tomorrow fingers crossed out come the prepayment meters and in go credit meters, so off to the  MSE energy club to see who has the best deals currently.

Hello there, I will try to be in this week. Thank you for the threads. Can we still change the colour of the text? x

Doesn't look like it Dancemum - or its not as easy as it used to be. You have to keep adding the HTML codes everything you post or copy and post.

Love the hair natty, really suits you

Natty, that looks lovely.  Take heart, Fayolle!   I have never coloured my hair:  my half-sister used to have hers all colours, and I hated seeing the dark roots and swore I would never follow her example.  I'm now grey/white and very happy with it.

This morning I have
- watered the garden first thing
- picked another 400g of beans (runner and climbing French purple)
- ate breakfast with DH
- filled the DW and wiped down the sides
- got in touch with Blenheim Palace customer services, who were very helpful
- emailed DD and Blenheim with the required info
- rubbed down the alcove wall in the study *again* and put on one coat of white emulsion, using my left hand as much as possible, as my right shoulder was extremely painful last night.  I can now see the little bits that need filling and sanding down **yet again**, but it looks much better
- waited in vain for my T00l$tat10n delivery which is still in ParcelForce's depot - they should never have sent it to Coventry!

Rosie is currently asleep behind my chair but will doubtless wake up immediately I go to prepare lunch!

(((Hugs))) spoons sticks and virtual ice lollies to everyone xx

Natty it looks lovely, I am ditching the blonde and trying to find a home auburn colour that I like.

Up at 5.45am.  Kitchen finished from yesterday including oven and microwave.  Utility room swished, fridge tidied, DW and WM on, LR dusted and DHs month end bills done.  Paid stuff 9am to 1.30pm just had lunch and emptied DW.  Lots more paid stuff to do, DHs bills to print and send.  Flagging a bit now, better get back to the paid stuff.

Natty, it looks fab x

Well ladies, I have smashed the slinky challenge in one morning - the amount of hair that has been cut off must make me at least a stone lighter. We have agreed on a gradual change and less of the blonde as a next step, so I can live with that.
Just grabbing a quick lunch, then I really must sort the fridge. Cloakroom and ensuite cleaned earlier, so better than nothing.  Just about.
