And I'm still suspended due to something that's not even my fault, it's my boss's fault for not telling me about it! I've written to her, and she says she has received it and I will get a response in the post tomorrow or Saturday.
I've had a strawberry cheesecake (a small one, not a huge one!) and DH has come home and plied me with jaffa cakes.
He's also made me laugh. I'm always on at him to shut cupboard doors, but he never does. He went into the kitchen to put some shopping away (Thursday market bargins) and he opened a cupboard, forgot and then walked into it. Oh the irony of it!
I feel a bit better now. Going to take it easy this afternoon tho as a bit fragile today.
Piggers, I thought you were at Crufts today?
no sweets.. my mother has gone today with my sister.. I get to go saturday and sunday with her and my 2 oldest girls!!
and BAH!! to work..I'd make the most of my days off and you know you didn't do whatever they are saying you did and that is what is important.. they ahve to follow protocol it isn't a reflection on you and it will all come right in the end.

catch ups.
lil_me great news about the caravan - keep up with the studying you are being very good at doing it! Good bit of compromising on Dh's part! Thats good news about DS too.
SS supergirl thats a great idea of the school's - hope you have fun with the children and make them realise how much of an angel she is.
crafty very pleased for your friend - what a relief for her.
flower well done to both of them - make sure the college help DD - my toxic friend's GGD is dyslexic and the college have given her an assistant and extra time when assignments are due in. Good idea employing her as a cleaner!!
mummy2mygirls - make sure you take it easy AND GET THAT BAG PACKED!!!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: if I were you I would concentrate on the baby things as time is getting close and then catch up on bits of housework!
rosepink dont get yourself upset about work - wait until you get the letter and see what they have to say- nice to see Dh may have learnt his lesson now:rotfl:
I know I said it last night but just wanted to say properlyto pigpen and SS supergirl!!

I have to see my cancer support nurse tomorrow, not really looking forward to that but it gets the ball rolling, other than that I'm feeling quite good as far as the op went, but then DH hasn't let me do a thing :T so I have had a chance to heal.....it will be 3 weeks tomorrow, can't believe where the time goes.
Rose huge hugs honey, rest & do things when you feel able.

just loving this smilie Toots! So using it for no reason.
Been to town, done what I needed to do. Gained an hour - looked at my watch thought it was 2:30 rushed to the car and realised from the car clock that it was only 1:30 so I could get my other bits done.
Just finishing my cuppa and then I need to go into the loft to look for something.
Rose hugs for you, please don't waste energy on things out of your control. Thoughts are just that thoughts and you have the power to let them go, replace them with happier ones. If you have sunshine then go outside and get some rays on your face for 15 minutes.
Lil_me glad DS's review went well
SS when is DD's birthday - hope the present arrivesThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
