Happy Birthday, Honey Bear! 🎂 I hope you have a lovely day x
Natty, I hope you feel better soon. That goes for all other poorlies, especially Round and Iona and various OHs. Jazee, I hope you are taking it as slowly as you need.Yesterday came and went. I decluttered a check up at the dentist, plus dropping in at the nearby small shops for listy items. The bedroom and DD’s room got some attention. Not too much, but enough. Or maybe not, judging by the amount of yuck picked up in the Dy$0n. Bedding changed, washed and line dried in the wind, before it started to rain again. HHI. HH admin x a couple. Not a particularly good night’s sleep, which seems to be a recurring theme lately.
Today I was considering a visit to the allotment, but it’s grey and uninspiring outside so I may settle for the gh. I have washed my hair - my hated job of the week - so the bathroom is on my list for today, along with doing what I can to tame my Rapunzel tresses - if only 🤣.

@Honey_Bear 🤣😍🤗
I have FUPA clean clothes, put things that I washed last night in the TD, S&S'd the kitchen, photographed DH's spotty chest (he rang the surgery again this morning and was asked for mug-shots), and sent Rosie off for her walk with L. Back to the admin (with another cuppa 😉)…

Happy birthday HoneyBear. Any flying today will be punishable……….and guard that precious dust.
Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.
It's tough getting rid of the past but it does free up space for the future.7 -
Happy Birthday Honey Bear x
Sunshine this morning, then heavy rain and gusty winds, followed by more sun now. Must still be April.
Two washloads dried indoors because the weather looked iffy. Cleaned bathroom and toilet, shopping delivered and put away, grass cut and edged and swept up, birthday card to DSil delivered and tea drunk.
Then back home to cook dinner, vacuum the bedrooms, eat and clear up and finally sit down.
Have to babysit DGD4 in an hour so I'm looking forward to that, kind of. Lovely to see her but tiring.
Hope everyone's OK.

Evening,
Hope you feel better soon Natty and happy birthday Honey Bear.
Flying yesterday and today restricted to the usuals associated with dinner prep, clear away, and DE loading/unloading, and cleaning shower and sink after usage. Early night last night was pointless as I kept waking up worrying about appointment today.
DH and I walked to the hospital and back, almost 2 miles each way (forgetting that DH is only 2 years off 80). Luckily having had eyes scanned, photographed and peered into, my mole isn’t a mole it’s something else but is nothing to worry about and he will see me in 12m to monitor changes. Relief as my friend had the same start but a very different ending and lost an eye due to hers being melanoma. My eyes still ache from the drops they used to dilate the pupils so will head up shortly and will hopefully sleep better tonight.

Happy Birthday Honey Bear xx
ENT consultant phoned me today about my biopsy results. Insufficient cells were taken by the fine needle! Would I go back for a core needle biopsy? He's going to arrange an appointment. I was so sure he was ringing to say everything was fine,it was a blow.
I went back to the paid stuff yesterday. My back gave me some gyp through the day, but it was definitely less painful today - heading in the right direction. I love my picker upper grabber.
I've made my bed, fed the birds, put out the recycling, and put the bin out ready to be emptied tomorrow.
