Hi everyone I'm home and finally with an internet connection after a month!
I previously typed out a long post, but the stupid internet crashed. Fingers crossed this one works so I'll keep it brief.
Holiday to Egypt = really good, 30 degrees most days and got back home last night around midnight. I didn't get ill for once - yippee! OH did get ill on third night and is now much more sympathetic about what I usually go through on holidays. Saw some clown fish (Nemo) this time which was really good as didn't see any when I was there in 2004.
House - living room and dining room have been decorated and completed now by my Mum whilst we were on holdiday and the expensive wallpaper that you all convinced me to buy looks lovely. Have taken a few pics on my camera to use up the film, and have asked for a CD when they're developed so with any luck I may be able to post some if I can work out how.
Work - I'm booked for 3 weeks starting tomorrow (right up to Christmas) to cover for a very poorly teacher in a year 3 class (7-year-olds) and this will involve me properly teaching (as in doing the planning too) so I'll probably only get on here in the evenings if I'm not at the gym.
Flying - I've missed you all dreadfully - I lost a lot of motivation as I didn't have pigpen's lovely lists and TAG and toots' HHCs to keep me going. House looks better now though as my Mum has been tidying whilst we were away, and I can also now see an end to the washing. Glad the Christmas cards are going again and lil-me I think that's a great idea if you don't mind us all sending them to you. I've also missed the going's on of Valli - did anything ever happen with the welsh man? A big hi to serena and froddington. Hope everyone is well.
I'd best try and send this now before it gets too long again.
Big hugs to everyone from me! It's good to be back!
