    Hi all

    After i posted earlier i did a HHI. Then Ds2 woke up from hs nap screaming saying his leg hurt. He screamed for ages and i couldn't get him to calm down. I put him on the floor and he was limping. I phoned the drs who told me to bring him straight down. As soon as we got there he started running around happy as larry:confused: . I thought i'd better see the dr just to be on the safe side. I waited an hour but it was coming up to 6 when i had to meet Ds1 at the bus stop after his trip. So i had to tell them i couldn't wait any longer and he seemed to have recovered:o . I feel terrible for taking him when he probably just slept awkward. I was really worried though at the time.:rolleyes:

    Lil-me i'm glad you have your power back.

    Motivation is lacking :o Anyone fancy writing a 700ish word essay for me on "The financial challenges individuals and household face can be affected by wider changes in society and the economy. Outline economic and social changes over the last thirty years that have affected the issues to be taken into account in financial planning for retirement. ":rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Mind you I just logged into OU website to try and find a transcript of the tutorial about pensions (the DVD itself crashes this computer :mad: Ex has said he'll help me set up a proper home network on Friday while waiting for DD to finish getting sorted so that I can print from my laptop and access this computer from my laptop which reminds me I need to find the software CD for the printer :think: ATM I can only surf from my laptop through this network. :rolleyes:) and there are quite a few of us who are still doing this work :rotfl: Best get back to it though....
