    Morning all - I've been up since 7 am but it has taken me this long to catch up.

    Ashia - you had me worried with that first post, I might see you later if we come into town.
    Pigpen - healing thoughts on their way to Germany, also my DW delivery last Wed was for '7.02-9.30' am they arrived at 7.45 - seems to be a trend:D

    New catch for the TD has arrived this morning (pooch nearly ate it!) so the sellotape can go back to the study.

    Hope those having probs last night managed to get some sleep - must go and get dressed now that OH has got out of bed, so will see you all later.

    ALL of my roasting/grill pans etc are now in the DW on an intensive wash, as I don't want any remnants of grease on them to make the oven dirty :rotfl: I store them in the oven, so they do tend to get a bit grubby. Anyway, I took the top rack out of the DW, found the spray bit to go on the back, so I'll see whether it works... it's the first time I've made use of the adaptations on this machine. Apparently it's good for doing the fridge shelves too :D

    Off to get dressed and sort laundry :j

    The work will wait for you to finish showing the LOs the rainbow, but the rainbow would not wait for you to finish the work.

    You should have that in your signature, it's lovely and sums so much up for so many people :)

    Just skin reading as I didn't get on here at all yesterday, was first day back at work for me. Wasn't that busy but there were not many of us and plenty of year end jobs that had not been completed.

    Kids had a good day at Mum & Dad's then SIL picked them up to walk their dog, then over to MIL (they took the pressies I forgot on Boxing Day!) (2 birds one stone here ;) )and I picked them up 7pm after work. Got back here, we all watched (ok I dozed through part!) of Curse of the Were Rabbit and then we all crashed into bed. Miss A was up first just before 9 and W has just got up!

    Morning All

    Bright sunshine & frosty here, but looks like a good day.

    lil_me hope you managed to get some sleep

    Pigpen positive eating vibes to your baby cousin

    Ashia hope the day improves

    Julie enjoy the bike ride

    All this talk of taking decorations down, I'm doing a bit a day, but the tree & outdoor lights will wait until twelth night.........my Dad was always superstitious, the one year my Mum took them down early my brother got knocked over by a car......that was years ago, but I don't want to tempt fate!

    Back later xx

  • Morning all and welcome to all new to the thread.
    This is the last weekend before I return to work on Monday. Normally I would be panicking about now and running around like a headless chicken trying to do all the things I wanted to do over the xmas hols and didn’t. As usual I haven’t done all that I wanted to do but no panic. I know that I have found something that will help me to get the HW under control so I don’t need to do it all in 2 wks. That is really empowering. Thanks all.
    The work will wait for you to finish showing the LOs the rainbow, but the rainbow would not wait for you to finish the work.
