Hi, Zoo, I seem to be having an up day --at the moment--,.

I have wrote out some bday cards, and hanged some wet washing. I am now having a rest and lurking here for a bit.

just PMd you.worried hadnt heard form you much last few days!
fancy 1oclock clubing today?

off to pick up little zoo now,be back at 12.x

Am o.k. so far today, almost feeling good!! strange
Was having a bit of a down day yesterday.
I will try and be around for 12.30ish. (lunch time)

Very weird day -- have found the key is take the next dose of pain pills before the existing dose wears off. Have managed to move today, though may have pushed a bit too much. Actually have a few ta dah's as well.

I hate illness.

just be careful dont take too many dosesscout
you around to buddy BC?

ive decided as the suns shining and its warm enough to work outside without a coat i shall attempt clear a bit of the front garden(major job)
it would be lovely to pass through gate into a tidy front garden and then into neat hall

looks around for BC

Zoo If you are around, I need a cup of tea and a rest for a little while.
I have a thread in chat - will explain all.

Sorry Zoo, I was on the verge of a panic/anxiety attack. am o.k. now, just sitting for a while having a brew. I'll hang around on MN for a while.

Hi BC are you around just now?

When ds has panic attacks we are teaching him to blow air out as if he is blowing bubbles or blowing up a balloon. I have tried it myself and it is remarkably calming.

Hi, Carrots, am having a late lunch now as couldn't have it earlier.

I think that does work Carrots. I am alright now but will try and remember for next time.

Glad you are ok now. I hope nothing upsetting has happened.

I am having a wee rest and some lunch after a busy morning. Nothing more has been done here so there are jobs building up but I need a breather first.

I am probably worrying over nothing.

I need to wash up and put the washing machine on but might have another first.

zoo I felt inspired to start sorting out the garden. Haven't quite made it yet but I thought about it. It's a start, right? :o

Had quite a productive day today. Just waiting for second lot of washing to be ready to go out

aw bc wish id been around.i have those too.nightmare arent they

i just had a surprisingly lovely long time out in the garden(set timer for 1hour but decided to finish what i was doing and ended up out there for near 1 and half hours!
ive managed to clear window side of the front garden
1 brown bin full
1 carrier bag plastic recycling thatd blown round garden
1 carrier bag rubbish

although still have a few brambles to dig out its much,much better.feel quite chuffed with myself

havent done much in house today so will do a few jobs befoe pick up ds.will be back at 4BC if you want a chat.x

dlamis thinking is the roue of all evil!!!ha ha

that shouldve said root of all evil. mustve got too much sun

Hi, I'm still lurking --must turn computer off soon--.
Will try to pop back around 4. (it's nearly school run time ).
Will turn the washing machine on after school run now. the airers are full anyway.

Well done on your gardening Zoo.
We are more cloudy here in the north but it is warmer today.

Well done on your washing Dlamis

Wow zoo, you have done well (and put me to shame ).

:o

hello! I've not had any pills since first thing this morning & feel ok-ish. Will be having some more with tea though as I don't feel well enough to see me through bath/bed time!

The sun is out here & I was very tempted to get out in the garden, but decided that would be over-doing it (I have a pampas grass that needs dealing with)

I was thinking earlier that I hadn't done anything this week, but I realised that I've managed to keep on top of everything, despite DH being away & being poorly (ok, I haven't mopped the kitchen floor this week, or changed the bedsheets, or done the missions, but they can wait) - I think I really am starting to do things automatically now, and am getting alot better at picking up after myself!

DD2 has worked out how to open the spout on her sippy cup & drip milk all over herself & the floor

I remember that stage well bessie.

Washing machine is loaded and on. Yay! I feel like i'm starting to get the washing done more often this week, which is a good thing as I have a large backlog

glad everyones managing to get some stuff done today

ive realised how great this system is;when i feel good crack on and tackle lots,okish basics and poss bit current zone,rubish coast and do whatever i can manage

so far ive managed (since january)to make a decent difference to the place adn more importantly MAINTAINED what ive dejunked

anyone got a pointy stick handy.i should get on with a few tings indoors but scooby doos on tv and im having trouble ripping myself away

---------> For you Zoo.

I am refereeing the kids as they keep kicking off! I hate this time of day. they always seem at their worst just after school.

Next week I will feel like a single parent cause DH is working till late.

Yay! Glad it's working for you zoo!

DD2 has just eaten her & my portions of soup for tea! (I had to have an emergency PBJ sandwich )

Just need to get her cleaned up a bit, then off to pick DD1 up from pre-school. They're going straight in the bath for (hopefully) another early night.
