Well, I washed bedsheets so I could hang them out to dry and smell lovely because it was all sunshiny.. it is nor torrential rain!! WHY!!!???

I'm going to go photograph a bundle of leggings and get those on ebeast I think.. 2-3 and 3-4.. I will have some space eventually.

Just touching base to let you know I'm still here..😀

I've had a horrendous headache on and off since my covid jab last week. It goes away but then comes back a few hours later..bloody thing.  Still it doesn't help that I forgot all my medications yesterday (anti depressants and mood stabilizer) so that may also be causing me to feel rough today and exasperating the situation of my headache.

Not sure if anything will get done today as I'll probably spend it asleep..lol Hugs xx

Right.. I'm feeling like a total weirdo... Who uses a top sheet under their duvet? Apparently you should only use a top sheet if you use blankets. I have had a top sheet my entire life with blankets, quilts and now a duvet.. OH said he never had one until he came here and he thinks I am weird.

New sheets in the WM .. my old ones had holes in so had to be consigned to dust sheets. I made a boob and only ordered 1 pillow cover instead of 2 and now they are not available on click and collect and I am not paying £3.95 delivery for one pillow cover!

Chugged through the emails.

Fed the fluffers

I have cancelled this weekends food delivery because we cannot afford it.. and maybe next weeks too..

You're not a weirdo Piggers, we've always used a top sheet under the duvet. It also means it keeps the duvet cleaner too.

Me!  I always have done and it means that in winter if the weather is bad I alternate between washing the duvet cover and throw that we have on the bed one week and the sheets the next week.  When its really cold we have a top sheet, a blanket, and then the duvet.  I have never put a top sheet on the kids beds for some reason though.

I have the same issue with the washing here, the sun is supposed to come out again so we will see.  Been to Li@l and shopped, all put away, have run the hoover around downstairs.

Hope you are OK Natty.  I think I had a bit of a reaction yesterday but I am feeling OK now, fingers crossed.

YL.. I've never put a top sheet on the childrens beds either.. I wonder if it is a generation thing..

19 pairs of leggings listed..

Nope, just the duvet cover.  Does that make us in this house a minority?

Sorry you're feeling crook, Natty.  I had an 18 hour reaction to the jab and thought at the time that if that's what a reaction is like, the illness itself would have been much worse for me.  I know some people sail through it but apparently not me.  Worth it, though. 

House insurance done at long last, Beloved happy with my thoughts on it, happy messages exchanged with various people regarding sea shanties and surveys, something found that I didn't know I had, and all in all a rather marvellous morning chez us.   We're off to the garden centre this afternoon to buy plants for the communal garden, which I'm happy to say will include two more cammelias.

I use a top sheet then I don't need to wash the duvet cover so often.

Home now. Weekend woot woot. Had a full on 4 days at work but it's done now. Called at PO on my way home to pay another electricity bill. I paid quarterly with the company until it was taken over- I then didn't receive a bill for 6 months,  and now they are billing me every month. Chippy was open - next door to PO, so that was my tea sorted. Let the weekend commence with a chippy tea. Why not? 

Hope DH continues to improve ionafan xx

Love to all

Me too!

Thank you all for your kind thoughts. DH continues to improve and has just rung to say that he has been moved off HDU and onto the "normal" respiratory ward (my DH "normal"????)  He sat out of bed for the first time for an hour this afternoon and will be sitting out again for almost 2 hours so that he can watch the rugby.  

I tried to finish the videos this morning but it began raining.  And I was so tired after lunch that I fell fast asleep on the sofa and didn't move for 3 hours - Rosie was very good and didn't disturb me.  We went for our walk in the woods and she chased a squirrel (but didn't catch it), now she's snoozing again.

Flying today consisted of dailies only, but Rosie and I don't make much of a mess.  This evening I need to cook pasta, send emails and work out how to upload videos onto YooToobe.  Wish me luck!

Have a good weekend xx
