    Morning Everyone
    WM on , Hope everyone has a good day , Off to find todays list.
  • That HHC turned in 45 minutes but grubby shower cubicle looks tonnes better - amazing how a burst of spring sunshine shows up the grub you'd not "seen" all winter!

    Plus I'm clean now too - LOL

    Errands around town next then call a friend to maybe meet for a cuppa.

    see you later, gang

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.


    Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.
  • Sorry I've posted so much this morning, just found it easier to post as I was reading, rather than remember it all til I'd caught up.

    Am feeling quite low today. Am going to a funeral soon, need to get dressed in a mo, of a lady who I knew all my life (I wrote about her a few weeks ago, she had a stroke, went into a coma and died.) - she was so lovely. Have to write cards, one to her daughter who I know, and to her son who i don't know. Have decided what to put already, about how lovely she was and how she often spoke of them and her grandchildren and that she was very proud of htem and loved them very much.
    Going to see my parents after that as they live in the town the funeral will be in. I expect there will be lots there today, some are even coming back from France to pay their respects to her. She gave warm love to everyone she met, and was always ready with a big hug and kiss to welcome people into her home.
    No flying done today, but I gather its kid's rooms today, don' have one so can I have a star like Piper's please!
    Love and hugs to all who require them today!

    Its babygroup today,then have to take the LO to the hospital,he has to go to Allergy Clinic,Seriously allergic to peanuts,egg and other things,the peanut one is the worse as he reacts to someone else eating them,I think he may need an Epi-pen?
    better safe than sorry - hope they figure out quickly how allergic he really is!! :kisses3:
    MOozy - wish we could have stayed longer, DS3 learnt to ski; great nursery slope with button lift and a jump. Took him up on the chair on the last day down the blue which was a bit trying as it was steep and heavy snow at the top but is a lovely woodland track once you get down the first bit. My skiing is back to where it was 6 years ago which was a huge achievement for me as I'd completely lost my nerve.

    i so want to go skiing now :rolleyes: - you could have taken me in your bag really - the one that was left behind?! so i could have a few more days on the slope :D - glad you enjoyed it!!!!

    There again, it could have been legit and I could have won something and then I could have put it with the £1.5m I just won according to my emails.... ;) mmmm, me thinks I'm getting a bit cynical in my old age... :rolleyes:


    no!! not cynical!! [shaking finger at you] - absolutly NOTHING wrong with being cynical :D

    Not much flying so far today - have had breakfast, tidied the kitchen, got showered and made the bed/done a floordrobe dance... Am off to Chelmsford now as hubby has a bike theory test (he can't go on his own... :confused: ) What is it with men that they need you with them - Oh, actually I know this one, he would get lost and wouldn't ask for directions so wouldn't make the test... ;)

    and not sarcastic at all, eh?!? :D :T

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker
    In my HHC - which was a lot longer- I:

    Made DD's breakfast
    Unloaded and reloaded TD
    Unloaded WM
    Tripped electric twice because I hadn't emptied the water bottle on the TD
    Made DD's hair appointment - 2.30
    Filled a bag for the charity shop
    Rang SIL to arrange to meet up later but her and nephew not feeling well so not meeting up so kids fed up!
    Found letter regarding a dormant account so rung them to reclaim my current balance - went a bit like this:
    Computer - can't give you a bal, put you through to human
    Human - need to go through computer for security check - I'll hold on
    Me - comp won't accept details - acount is dormant
    Human - we still need to check I'll listen
    Computer - there seems to be a problem
    Human - can you verify details with me
    Me - give details
    Human - there's no bal on this account - it's closed
    Me - there was when it was closed
    Human - I've looked at the last 35 days and there have been no transactions
    Me - it hasn't been used for 4 years, that's why it was dormant - you closed it in 2007
    Human - oh - there is a bal in 2007 - it's gone to unclaimed funds
    Me - that's why I'm ringing I'd like it back please
    Human - I don't know how to do that - let me put you on hold while I speak to a colleague
    And so on and so forth!
