Managed to get DS1 up!! First time for months he's been out of bed before 10.
Off to school, then hospital, amnd wait to see how much of the dya is left after that.
School sports afternoon, if I can get away from the hosiptal with DS1 and newly plastered arm.
Agree about Kathy Reichs! Given one, then had to buy all the others! Recently recommended Harlan Coban, very good indeed.
michell - huge hugs. Phone any friend/relative near you and beg for a hand. Skip the bath unless they are truly filthy.It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -

Coffee and a cuddle with DS2 here. He reluctantly walked a lot of the way home from school here. Hopefully he'll be exercised enough to have a sleep while I work through my list, then we can have some playtime together before I collect DS1.
I'm a bit worried because I saw the Dog Warden driving out of my road when I got home. While they do get on, my dog is still a bit grumbly about the Childminder's dog holidaying with us and occasionally he'll shout at her. I just hope they didn't disturb the neighbours while I was out. There's no sign of anyone visiting while I was out, though. No notes pushed through the door or anything.:T Weight Loss (Start Weight 14st 12lb): 5/24 lbs :T
