    Has anyone got a few hours to spare tomorrow to come and put this cushion cover on for me. It was really tight to get off and there's no way i'll get it back on. I'll provide wine, cider or beer:rotfl: .

    Total shock...I had half an hour before brownie pick up earlier so thought i'd catch up with something.....my house is tidy and clean :eek: . It's a miracle xx

    I shopped at home! I tried on everything and I mean everything in my cupboard. Anything I will not wear again is in the charity shop bag, what's in the cupboard fits, and the size below (cos I'm slowly shrinking) is in the bed drawers. I have more than I remembered - and only need a couple of items to give me a complete "new" summer wardrobe.

    Now to do the stuff in the loft (not much as I remember) and my shoes and I've been through the lot. Whilst I have a lot less in number it seems a lot more to wear - to be honest I'd forgotten some of what I had!

    Now for a quick flit of the kitchen, and then off to my pit,

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Oh - quick where do I go ladies. I'm a rather large curvy lady - where's best for new undies - the cantilevered hold it all up or in variety? My stuff is not doing what it should now and it shows..:o

    Back in.

    All windows*/doors cleaned and sprayed with the magic stuff... *apart from the kids rooms and out bedroom which I can't reach.

    Lawn and plants watered.

    All toys put back in the garage.

    Managed to give a couple of dozen cars warning that there was a smash at the top of the road. All a bit carp really.

    DH has made supper so off to eat.

    wtg with the shopping Pigpen! and I hope you have a good night out Kaz.

    Catch you all tomorrow.
