    Morning all

    Pigpen - hoping you've had your first cuddle
    skipsmum - hugs for you and hope today is a good one
    Triker - how are you today hun?

    I've got an exam to ingivilate in an hour so going to do some bits off my list before I go.

    Hiya Dusty, I'm ok, the pain is easing just a tiny little bit, trying to avoid taking the painkillers because they drain me.

    Determined to do something today, probably going to tackle the bathroom because it'sdisgusting.

    Want to try and source another fridge freezer and then work out how to pay for it!! After the empire direct debackle.

    Alao need to do a ton of paperwork and currently feel like a blob of jelly.

    Have fun invigilating later. x
