anyone here?

[Alambil]

?

yeh!

I am goign to bed now... thanks for tonight everyone

am sure i'll be back some time soon....

ooooo - did you have lots of fun squashing them to get more in the bags?

When the boys aren't around begging me to let them squash my many many Dr Pepper and milk bottles I have great fun squishing them

giggle - I'm sure I'll have a lovely shag evening

Ah! but you have put them in a bin bag??

BTW, the clothes tags were Primark too

You're in good company and I found some moldy spuds in my cupboard today maggots galore...........

night Lewis - I know you pointedly ignored my posts about helping you ...........I have a hedge trimmer (that's very good at doing 9ft weeds as well just to lob 'em back) which hasn't been used for a long time - I'm longing to play with it again

That bin that DD is obssessed with? That one?

Giggle, no offence taken. I just see it as there are victims and survivors - even how you label yourself can affect the outcome.

Not aimed at all at you Lewis, you gorgeous Narnian creature.

shuutttuuuuuup bout the bloody maggots

lewis - update tomorrow pls, hope you feel better about things when you get the place a bit tidy in the mornin. Will be thinking of you!

oh sh*t - I've just thought - I've had a fair few flies in the house still...............talking of cupboards,and cupboards under stairs..........I've just remembered there's a very (well quite) old half sack of spuds in there......those paper sacks don't keep 'em fresh.

f*ck - that better be my first port of call in the morning blitz........

OK, I was officially in bed two hours ago. Why am I still up?

ermm - yes that bin Bitter your lovely gorgeous DD had her hands all over.

oh oh oh oh - but I must share (as Lewis has rather put me to shame with her sorting today!) - you know that MASSIVE pile of boxes I had outside my back door??

They've all gone now - put the last lot in the recycling bin tonight

Tocc, we've had milions of the buggers - and my house is spotless never at all times.

ooh, x posts - yay for clearing cardboard! city

bitter, you're nocturnal Wish the brain had an off switch or sumthin, tho!

it was rather cardboard city wasn't it - but it's all gone now so that's the last of the rubbish/stuff we sorted out that day you came and helped me sort my house out gone

No, giggle I just work late then feel I am entitled to some 'me' time. I would have been in bed hours ago if I was not stubborn sensible.

yes - I should be trying to sleep as well, sorry for thread hi-jack Lewis

night all

Bloody Hell Tocc, when I hink of the differences between now and when I met you!

I don't mean your house, I just mean your situation - you were so low then.

ahhh, I recognise that one bitter.
So we are all going to jointly decide to stop being stubborn arses and go to bed then, huh?

Yes , bed. Night all.

Lewis - you will be fine. You will make sure of that.

yeah it's weird - I knew I was pretty low, it's only now looking back, when I can hardly remember anything about that period of time, that I realise just how low I was.

of course the house is frequently not much better than when you came over (and omg you don't want to see my bedroom right now pmsl) but you know I'm just about on top of it. The rubbish - most of it anyhow) is in the bin, the dishes have all been put in the dishwasher, all my washing is up to date (am igorning my "ice cream cone" - what the boys are calling it - ironing pile working it's way up the wall). Most days I go to sleep and am at least able to see the living room floor (even if I can't see the others ),

oh - and of course I've made a fab new friend along the way as well

right - I'm going to join giggle and bitter in the joint "lets stop being stubborn" stakes and go to sleep.

well, apart from dining table, junk on it and under and washing cupboard doors... the kitchen is DONE to a proper, clean, healthy , livable standard

the living room will be done tomorrow... I will do another tip run (ran out of time today) and then that will be done to a proper, clean etc standard.....

then on friday we'll do the porchway / hall (2ft sq so will take 10 mins) and start on the bathroom... and over the weekend, I'll do the carpet with a hired cleaner thingy and keep plugging away til we've moved back in

woohoo - well done Lewis.

I managed to blitz my kitchen today as well, havent' done the cupboard doors..........or the pile of junk at the end of the tiny worktop next to the sink - but it's done.

I'm not sure I can keep up with you

just checking in to see how you got on, lewis. Sounds brilliant, good on ya!! How's the head and 'stuff' in it today?

well, it took a battering this morning - as much as mum said she wouldnt comment or judge, I knew she would and she didn't let me down...

I got on with it though, cried a bit ...

have had to call off lunch with a friend tomorrow to sort the front room out; i will meet with her another day, when it's all settled; I've told her i'm getting proper help so that's why I can't come

I keep getting nagged to call the doctors though which I hate.

I know they mean well, but it's fucking annoying when I have a irrational fear of talking on the phone, plucking up courage for the appointment and them wittering "have you done it yet... have you called ... when are you calling" etc

am still unsure whether SS would be involved and am NOT going to the nhs if they would be...

she's doing my head in.
