    Good Morning all, well here in Bradford we do have the snow and although it is not deep it has settled on the ground. I got a nice wake up call when a large lump made it's way down my trainer onto my bare foot lol.

    Any ways my little girl was very upset this morning she has figured out that mummy is going into hospital 2moz. I have decided to keep her off school today and in the middle of flying I am going to spend time with her. I am hoping to try role play with her and see if that helps.

    :confused: I really do not know what else I can do with her, she is so upset and confused. I know that she should be in school, but she got so worked up she starting coughing and was sick. She is ok now but I am going to keep an eye on her.

    Any ways have a lot to do today so must crack on as they say. (well after I have checked the emails)

    Morning all,
    Big hugs to Gryfon and any other sickies.
    I hate falling asleep on the sofa Holly, although i do it quite regularly as my sofa is so comfy:o

    At home with LO again today, need to get my bum in gear though. I'm feeling fine so no excuse for vegging in front of the comp or tv.

    HHC - 9.00 - 9.30 anyone?????????????

    ubby said nice things this evening about the cleaning. I feel good. :T

    I wish mine would. Despite all my efforts he says it's always messy (which it isn't). I think he has OCD on a certain level. When I met him (on a kibbutz) in his cupboard all this t-shirts looked like they had been lined up with a ruler :rolleyes:. My room on the other hand was a tip! I'm not untidy now though and like to have things put away, but he says I'm still untidy. His idea of "compromise" is for me to reach his exacting standards, which are frankly not normal.
