    Morning all

    Toochoosey you are going great guns today what time did you get up?

    PenPen hope you managed to see the GP and that you are ok

    Serena more dental hugs for you

    Toots enjoy your day with your friends

    MOJ2 well done on last night and I'm glad you had a nice lunch

    SarahS I hope DD2 has a lovely birthday and that the present arrives

    DS2 off school sick again with tummy ache so I'm getting the homeopathy books out to see if I can find something to help. My kids usually have a good sickness record at school but he has had 9 days off since christmas.

    I'll also do my dalies and then see what to do next, I did the bathroom yesterday, just the floor to go.

    Morning from the house of stress today.

    I have been up showered dressed and taken DD to school (with doogie), much to DD's disgust as I walked 2 paces behind her and her friend ALL the way and wouldnt let her go in the butchers for a sausage roll on the way does :rolleyes: .

    OH should be with his union rep as we speak then interview at 10am so some positive vibes needed.

    I have been told to take it easy so will attempt to do some level 1's and see how I get on.

    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!

    Back a bit early cause I mopped the floor, but before that I dried and put away breakfast dishes, cleared and wiped down surfaces and got all loose biscuits and empty packets out of the breadbin.

    Dusty Thanks but I didn't get up till 6:15 but I find I always wok better when I know I have to go somewhere(airport this morning and caravan this afternoon), I hata leaving the house in a mess. PLus because I have been doing the lists, nothing really takes that long anymore.

    Positive vibes for Serena and Kazmeister, Congratulations to Sarah Shattered, and hugs for anyone who needs them.

    Invoicing is done, still have some work bits to do urgently today, and I need to find the remains of the 4" Goldfish that the cat appears to have stolen and eaten in the night! Need to clean the tank as the water is full of ginger hair.

    Are goldfish ok on their own or do they need a friend? We now have one huge goldfish in a tank that is intended to be for 8 fish.

    HHC 10-10.30 anyone? I have a tiny bit to do on yesterdays list, and I will use last weeks Friday list as suggested.
