    Morning ladies, feeling much better today, thank you for all the hugs etc. Was feeling really grumpy yesterday, i hate being ill and its been well over a week so wasnt amused. Feel almost human today though, long may it last:j

    Jjef/pigpen did you make use of the code? Was still working last night apparently! My boots have been dispatched, should be here(well at my parents) today:D

    Managed a little revision last night so hopefully shouldnt do too badly today, it counts for 35% of my final mark though:o

    Have a nice day ladies, wrap up warm:eek:

    My list for today.
    I have removed the kid bits as my DS is only 18 months, he can help put things in boxes etc but takes them back out!
    (Also for anyone in Scotland, our kids were on holiday last week and the week before and are back at school now (maybe any Scottish mummies can suggest they be added on at Scottish holiday times)- just a thought ;)).
    Will pop back on once its all done (likely later in the afternoon) so happy flying everyone. We have a smidgeon of snow, and its cold, but might take DS a wee walk out in his buggy if I have the energy (yesterday ?I felt energetic and then at 6pm, after dinner, my energy levels went straight through the floor and had to go to bed :eek:).

    On DS computer, so no time to catch up - sorry!

    Wrote a lengthy post last night reporting how good i'd been - then lost the darn thing! My computer has a problem, so it's at the doctors.

    I did manage to get a couple of extra bits done in the laundry, the kitchen S&S and the boys toilet spring cleaned - can we all say ewwwww :eek:

    Working all week, so not promising anything.

    Today, in my lunch break, I made four phone calls that needed doing. Feel good about finally getting them done.

    Will put tomorrows dinner in the SC tonight, and put a load of washing on to hang out in the morning.

    Forgot to add - guess what else I did yesterday . . .

    Because I bought a new peg bag - I WASHED MY PEGS :) IN HOT SOAPY WATER :) They look lovely and clean now!

    Truth be told, they were very muddy. Dogs had tipped them out and had been playing with them in the mud!
