I seem to have gained one of Round’s Pounds this week ( new game show potential?). Just wondering who kindly took up the offer of the rest of her flingage.I thought my 4.5 lb loss last week was too good to be true.
Pleased to hear that your consultation with the doctor was helpful, HB. Hope you have an equally positive experience with the vampires tomorrow!
I have cleaned the kitchen, including hoovering out the drawer into which DH had spilt a copious quantity of muesli this morning, and mopped the floor, over which DH had ditto, grrr!!! I've also hoovered the LR carpet and utility/porch mats, swapped out the dead flowers for fresh ones, FUPA the washing which had dried overnight, hung the remaining WM load from yesterday on the airer in the bathroom, and made coffee.
After lunch I plan to prune the buddleia by the back gate and plant out the last three little packs of bulbs, after which I shall go back to chasing the ancestors.6 -

Good evening all,
I've had a migraine and then the flu so I've barely lifted a finger for nearly a week. Anyway I've done almost all the dishes - can't do them all as there's not enough drying space - and hoovered most of the rooms. I'm wfh tomorrow so will get a couple of washes and some meal prep done then.Debt | £224.10 / £471.90 M1 | £131.88 / £858.65 Mobile | £443.45 / £3,370.22 L1 | £383 / £6,460 CC2 | £26.25 / £0 M2 | £1,159.55 / £1,159.55 CC1 | £2,368.23 / £12,309.32 Total

After a fairly good last week, things have got chaotic again. Finally found out today that the 2 solicitors involved in selling Mum's house had a 'falling out' at an early stage so seemingly have been trying to catch each other out/score points. Hence the inane and often upsetting questions we've been receiving. There is a chance it may be resolved in the next couple of days so please send lots of good vibes.
- before he'd even got up, Mr N had a phone call from a friend; he'd had a couple of falls recently (unbeknown to us), the last of which he'd been unable to get up so called 999 and has been in hospital for a few days since. Happily, after a morning of worry, Mr N went to visit him this afternoon and he is doing well, likely to be home tomorrow.
- Mr N got as far as breakfast before getting an odd message from another friend. Rang him to find that the poor chap is being treated for heart failure; a sobering thought as he was an apprentice when Mr N worked with motorbikes so to us he is still 'young R'.
Flying wise I have made a giant chilli in the slow cooker as we have friends staying overnight tomorrow.
One load through DW
Went to DanceFit.
Went to Mr T on the way home.
Last few bits tidied in lounge. Took all the spare knitting needles, fabric and sewing box to a friend yesterday and she was delighted.
Started to gather items together as we're going to Dorset on Wednesday.
Checked session plan for tomorrow's student.
Went to zumba.
Did a bit of admin.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.7 -

My next 🐸 project will begin next week - it's 'that' shelf crammed with make-up, junk jewellery, purfume, skincare & unknown stuff at the back. I sort of started a couple of years ago, but when my sister passed away I lost interest in everything. I feel like I'm ready to tackle it now.
Adding 'measure shelf' & 'buy suitable storage boxes/baskets' to the list

Morning all xx
How very unprofessional of the solicitors Narc0! Sending positive vibes through the ether. Hugs and much love to you and Mr N 😘
eltee - oooo. Do tell us what the 'unknown stuff at the back' is when you get to it. I'm incredibly nosey. And hugs and much love to you too 😘
I'm up, made my bed, removed Pops' sheets from the radiators and added to the FU pile of clean laundry waiting for his return to Blighty, dressed, packed my lunch bag, eaten breakfast, completed Strands with no hints, completed Wordle in four, completed Connections with no lives lost, and I'm supping a brew.
Tuesdays are my least favourite day of the week. At least it's half term holidays so the commute shouldn't be too bad. Oh. Just remembered, last thing on Friday I fired an email off after dealing with a very upset Phlebotomy patient. There may be repercussions. But I stand by everything I said. And I'm ready to fight my corner if necessary. Let me just get my 🥊🥊. Oh. And the box for A. Mustn't forget that.
I'll feed the birds and put out the recycling before I set off.
Have a good day.

Morning all. Wordle in four.
Hugs where needed. Having been to doctor yesterday I'm off to get blood taken this morning so I must get dressed soon. Flying wise I'll do usual Tuesdailies.
I have a frog to sort as well now. I'm putting all my sewing and knitting stuff away as I've lost my mojo for those and getting out my card making and art stuff again but it needs a lot of new homes to be found.
Have a great day everyone.
Spend less now, work less later.7 -
