Kaz - I echo what everyone else has said. I really hope he doesn't go out on it xx
Piggers - I hope Dot has a better day. You really are quite wonderful, your girls are very lucky to have you, never forget that x

Update from me, I have:
- Baked a Yorkshire tea loaf 
- Made a dozen Yorkshire puddings
- Set the DW going
- Children have put all of the dry laundry away
- DS away to footie
- DD doing her homework 
- Poo picked
- Manky loo brush binned
- Table made in my notebook to track energy consumption

Next on the list is writing a letter to close a bank account that cannot be closed online apparently. xx

Busy morning here so far,  

DD1 and OH filled the trailer with junk and the car boot with CS stuff and went to the tip, nice to see stuff leaving the premises.  There is a little tidy corner now in the workshop.  

Bed made, clothes picked up
WM on
Spending spreadsheet updated
Papers from bank visit filed

F1 this afternoon  so that's OH occupied, I'll try and potter a bit more or maybe read my book

Kaz.. Twinkle was messing at swimming too and had to be told several times to be sensible and Pixie was nt listening to instructions.. they all had a really bad day. To make it worse Boog started when I got home from swimming so has been told that if the behaviour towards everyone does not improve he will be looking for somewhere else to live because I will not tolerate it.. Fingers crossed today is better for everyone! i hope those keys stay hidden, my mother hid keys when her husband had just had surgery a few times.. men are sometimes very silly, like it is unmanly to take time to recover and heal. OH was driving a couple of weeks after his hernia repair too.. they are just plain silly! He drove to the appointment to be told he should wait another couple of weeks before starting driving again..

ASB.. thank you x I wish they saw that I just want the best for them all, I feel like a wicked witch half the time

Valli.. Happy Birthday lovely, have a wonderful day xx

Todailies..

Bath beasts

pack ups

uniforms

laundry

2 ebeast parcels to package.. has anyone else suddenly stopped getting notifications they have sold things? I seem to be getting all other notifications but not those!

I've been knitting little christmas gifts so this is keeping me occupied. I have a few baby cardigans to knit for my daughters friend due in March.

Checked the weather forecast earlier - all fine until later this evening. WM has finished, and torrential rain!! It's now in TD 😕 
Next jobs, after my cuppa, are empty DW, s&s kitchen and clean the utility. My neighbour is feeding the ninja cat next weekend, and I can't let her see it like that! 😱😂 Her OH runs a cleaning firm!! 🤣🤣
Gammon in SC before it goes ood - DH won't eat it, so I still need to think about dinner 🤔

Jazee

An hour spent painting more of garden fence and quick trip to shop.  Just having lunch then I'll read before the family descends on us mid afternoon.

Happy birthday, Valli 🎂 xx

I mustered the inclination to go to the allotment for a couple of hours, mainly because I stood on the scales earlier. Must do some exercise…😳. Pulled put a couple of buckets of weeds, moved yet more stones ( my best crop this year!), and picked veg for the week. Beans, sweetcorn, beetroot, carrots, squash and celery. This afternoon will be making something of the harvest, and making sure that none goes to waste.

Rest easy ladies, ty, OH has been distracted by NDN and F1, so he is not going anywhere, never even mentioned biking today.

I have made brownies, and overfed them to OH as well, just to make him fall asleep after F1.......................

I have a load of holy hock seeds, light pink and red, a bit mixed up, also some chive seeds,  if you would like some, dm me your address

pigpen

We would like some holly hock seeds please Kaz.. My MIL had me planting lots of them last time we went.. I will PM you shortly. We are getting Squeak a small greenhouse for christmas as part of her home education.. We are getting seeds for bedding plants too so we can fill up our hanging baskets and borders too, they have been very empty the last few years. Good to see OH was distracted

Can we grow tomato plants from the half dead tomatoes in the fridge or are they sterile produce? (quick to grow but I hate the smell of them lol.. cherry tomatoes not big salad ones)

DW been on

Grill pan cleaned.

I may do pack ups now because I am really tired and doubt I will want to do it later

Honey_Bear

Not sure about tomato seeds Piggers.  Sorry I can't help.

Happy birthday Valli! 

Sorry the job hunting isn't productive at the moment, Dancemum.  (((Hugs)))  I hope the house sells quickly and you can feel you've moved on after all the work you've done on it.

Two lodgers left today and we haven't got much in the way of bookings over the next few weeks.  Right now that feels like rather a good thing because we went from no-one for over a year to a houseful with two of them dragging people back.  Neither of them have stayed in theatre digs before and I should have realised that they needed to be told from Day 1 that this is our home, not a bed and breakfast, hostel or a hotel.  Lesson learned.  One amour even went so far as to bring his own pillow so he'll need to collect that before I get irritated by it and chuck it. I've stripped both beds, put one set through the WM but the weather isn't co-operating so I'll get this load dry before dealing with the other lot.

Gibble's been rehomed to where it all needs to be, all the bins emptied and sorted, the kitchen's had a thorough scrubbing but the fridge looks as though a bombs exploded in there so I'll deal with that tomorrow when I've got a bit more energy.

See you all on the other side.

YORKSHIRELASS

Hi all

Where did today go?  We went to our great nephews birthday party and caught up with family which was nice.  3 loads of washing dried outside, all folded and put away.  Waved DS1 off back home with a bit of a lump in my throat, its been so nice spending time with him.  Silly because we will probably see him again next weekend.

Good tidy around and rest of the holiday stuff put away.  Pasta for tea.  Will try and enjoy what is left of the weekend before paid stuff tomorrow.

Oh and ASB you have no idea how much happier my life is for having you and all the other flyladies in it!! xx
