    DD wants to go to Mr Ts for dinner as DS will be having fish and chips or something for tea with daddy! So I think I'll take her there and have a wander around Longton and see if that will keep her happy. Probably not as she also has plans that we'll go to the park, do some painting, do some gluing, do some puzzles together and numerous other things. Does she realise that she's off for 6 weeks and she doesn't have to do everything on the first day!

    Woohooo I am totally up to date, well up to date with the thread :p Glad you are all well, hope those on hols or about to go have a great time.

    A & W break up on Weds, I am getting the caravan out with Dad tomorrow, will cause chaos on the road here but I don't care, two of the neighbours take the p*ss parking all their cars all over the shop.

    Beautiful day here, had the DW and TD on so far, folded all the stuff out of the TD and put WM on a hot wash with some bleach. Bought some loppers yesterday and set about getting rid of the overhanging hawthorn, now loads more light coming into the garden and it looks a lot better. More to be done but the green bin is full and I need to get rid of the branches we chopped yesterday.

    Going to play with the laundry so I have some idea of what clothes we have ready for our hols.

    Morning all!
    Once again am back in having had some spectacular falls from the flylady wagon over the past few weeks.
    Still gingerkids are on school hollies now and I've managed to unpack from last weeks holiday and done the washing and ironing so not TOO bad!
    Aims for this week are to sort out the office and the filing pile and to get down and dirty in the kitchen!
    Wish me luck!
    Still - might go for plan b and make cookies for the afternoon!

    Hiya
    DS hasn't been sick for about an hour. Dad's consultant is on holiday so he's still waiting to find out what to do. His sight has returned so he's not panicing too much but i've told him i'll take him to A&E if noone gets back to him soon. He might not be panicing but i've used my panic constructively....so far i've....
