    Morning all, I hope everyone is well, or at least better than yesterday.

    If yesterday was blue Monday does that make today indigo Tuesday?

    I'm getting really excited about tomorrow! Gonna be brilliant - I hope. Hope it's not raining or too windy - a nice bright dry day would be ideal... what are the chances?!
    Life is all about the journey.

    If you dont feel 100% take a sick day, mums are no1 and need to be on top form so having a day to yourself is a requirement every now and then

    I'm not a mum (unless you count my 5 furry children :rotfl:) but I have phoned in sick this morning, need to call back at 9.30 to speak direct to my manager when she's in. I don't know why I feel guilty when I phone in sick, there's people at work who take the p*ss and phone in sick all the time :mad: Told OH he could go back to sleep as didn't need a lift and Rude Boy's joined him up there, Izzy's asleep on my knee and all the cats are out so lovely and peaceful in here for now :o

    If you treat your dogs/cats like I do then you are a mum!
    I work with mainly men and the amount of time lost because of 'man flu' so dont feel guilty.
