Do any of you remember me on about being nominated in my class, well i won and am being given a laptop:eek: :eek: :j . Have to go up to Belfast for a presentation really nervous about that but so excited.
We finally got the letter from the OT so i'm now waiting on the architect to call me back so he can come down and get it and go over plan's again.
Bad news is that under our lino in the kitchen is soaking and can't find where the leak is coming from so today i need to clear kitchen and pull lino up. We checked the sink, radiator and fridge but all dry.
Right cup of coffee to get me going. Anyone want one lift away....:coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -

Morning all,
Firstly belated well done to Shell, I remember the first couple of times of going out on my own go with advice already given try to be on your own if you can.

So today will aim to do -
30 mins ironing

s&s living room
s&s kitchen
strip bed and remake
try and find homes for shoes (at the mo some are in hall, boxes or lying on bedroom floor)
Okay cuppa finished HHC anyone 11.45 - 12.15

Hi everyone
Can I join you in this? I am fed up with my house constantly looking like a tip, and I can procrastinate for England when it come to housework. It's now 12.00 and I could have had the whole daily list done by now - so I just need some motivation.
I have stripped off one bed so far, will come back later to update on whether I actually manage to do anything else!0 -
