Evening ladies
Round I am keeping all my cross-able bits crossed it can be sorted inexpensively. Have a hug xx
Fayolle I’m sorry but I chortled at this. I do it almost every time I make stock, you’d think I’d learn!Valli I see you’ve put the new thread up for Monday, thank you x
I have totally de-Christmas’d the house and it feels good. I have a car full for the charity shop, tip and bottle bank tomorrow. TD is on, DW is on and I’m going to watch a Harry Potter in bed.Sleep well ladies xx10 -
Sorted the wellies and threw many away. Have three pairs to wear, plus the ones I've been using. Glued and patched two pairs, i hate to throw them away until the soles go, so patched the tops. Helped with another four corn dollies, what have i started? Hoovered all the carpets, yes ALL of them. don't often do both in the same day!
Tomorrow I'm planning to weed the beds in the tunnel, water said beds and remove all the cobwebs i can find in the house.

I have put the new thread up (well spotted ASB) but I won't add a link - if someone could pop a link to it on Sunday that would be great.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Hi all xx
hope Santa has been good to everyone.Piggers happy birthday! (better late than never)
It’s silly season at work just now. I just keep telling myself I’m nearly there and a rest is coming.I have been flying as much as possible but I’m working 6 days so it’s the bare minimum. I’ve got the WM on and the winterdyke is full and I’m hoping to get the full place cleaned between tomorrow and Saturday. DD has done her own room today and managed to mess the rest of the house. To be fair DS1 was putting shelves up for her and building furniture so it wasn’t all her mess.Off to try to chill for a bit before bed xxI'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged11 -

Morning all.
Fingers crossed that your chemo goes well today Valli.
As a minimum I'm going to sort out admin this morning and I'm going to change the bedding today. DH is going to help turn the mattress.
Still babysitting here until tomorrow afternoon so that may be it.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.10 -
Morning all xx
Fingers crossed that all goes well today Valli ❤ xx
No qualms here about the morning ahead at work - I've been treated very gently so far - but 🤞 that my car starts.
I'm up, dressed, made my bed, eaten breakfast, supped a brew, and I'll feed the birds before I go.
Awwww Pops just texted to say he's up if I need a lift. Bless him.
Hope today is a good day for you all.
Much love
Rxx
PS DS is 30 today. How did that happen 😳? And GF has put a post on FB saying she's glad he's hers!!! Excuse me. I think she'll find he's MINE. Who am I kidding? My baby is all grown up and living with another woman. As long as he's happy I can live with that I guess 🤣 And breathe 😉IT ONLY TAKES SMALL DAILY ACTIONSFOR MAGIC TO HAPPENRosemary Ikpeme10 -

Fingers crossed for a smooth session today, Valli
Happy birthday to Round’s baby boy 🎂
DSiL and BiL dropping by for food on their way home from HB land. The sc will be going on shortly, to take away any stress on timings.
The house needs attention. I need to get this Christmas stuff down. Getting stressed about DD’s loose plans for NYE. Happy for her to go out with friends, not so happy about the train travel involved and going to the big city for their celebrations. To quote Round……and breathe….9 -
Good luck today Valli x
Round DS2 is 22 on Monday. He will always be my boy, especially as he is the youngest of the two. Happy Birthday to yours.
So today my parents and Mum in Law are coming for tea, we have waited to give me a chance of getting rid of this lurgy, and I do feel better this morning - although my appetite has still not returned. This means I cant deChristmas the house just yet, but I am looking forward to having them over.
Wet and windy again, not much chance of doing anything outdoors even if I felt like it! Need to hoover the LR, get things ready for visitors, and potter. Tomorrow DS2 goes back to the big city and we will celebrate NYE quietly at home. Visiting parents on NY Day then will be getting ready for back to work and normal life.
