Morning all

Toots, I was so sad to read your news but you know we'll all be here wishing you well and trying to cheer you up when things get tough. All the best xx


No washing today.

I've cleaned the insides of the windows and all the mirrors in the house and the television screen. Also decobwebbed all the rooms. Dustpanned downstairs. I do the bathroom on Thursdays and I don't cope very well if I try to change things too much so I'll stick to that.

I defragged the computer at the weekend and cleaned the desk yesterday (including shaking the crumbs out of the keyboard, the space bar isn't sticking now so I must have got that last crumb!)

Good luck to GnB's LO and Triker's DH.

The blind man is coming to fit the back bedroom blind this afternoon.

Also had to find new source for dog food. I rang the usual place to get a redirection and to find that they had closed down. It seems like everywhere is closing down. Anyway, I found somewhere else local and they are delivering today or tomorrow. I've got enough left for several days anyway.



Waiting for Asda delivery now.......taps foot.......

Off to catch up some more with the thread.

mOZzy_2

well, dd is at nursery, i've taken ds to the doc (he's got an earinfection - altho he says his ear doesn't hurt - only his throat?!?) - well, the nurse says it's the ear and so he's on antib's now - while we were waiting for that one being made up ds and i got ourselves some goodies for our day today :rolleyes::D

Also having a Drama with my bed - does anyone near me want an IKEA Malm Bed Frame!! :mad: they are a stupid size......my double mattress was too small, so saved up and got a kingsize mattress which was too big!! It doesnt fit the bed.....plus Ive just bought the bedside tables to go with the stupid bed and built one of them, so I cant return it now to get my money back!! grrr. turns out Ikea beds are made a stupid size so you have to buy their mattresses - which are paper thin...... :rolleyes:

Now need to save up to buy a Kingsize BedFrame but have just had to spend some of that on my car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Feels like its never ending!! xx Anyway thats my rant and rave over for the time being.....sorry!

Will hopefully catch up on flying tonight.....am on a mission now!

Good luck to all you peeps flying today xx

Morning everybody!
have been up since 8 and been catching up with you all and then lost my connection - inbetween I have had to do several long phonecalls so no flying yet except 1 xWM ready to hang out now!

What a lovely bright sunny day we have here - it was frosty overnight but has lifted already so might manage to get outside for a little while and fill up the green bin before friday!!!
Thank you ALL so much for all your hugs, thoughts, words of kindness, pm's,offers of help, emails, messages ....... just everything - your support as always is just fantastic and feels like a blanket around me!!!

lil_me thats a great start - well done to you and OH!

Hope MR Triker is feeling a bit brighter and not so sore today. Just seen your post about the smoking - thats a biggy for him but would be great - get some patches ready for when he starts to feel tempted.

G&B please keep us posted regarding LO's op - will be thinking about you all today - hugs and prayers for her.

kazw and Supergirl - I hear what you are saying - we will see how it goes -at the moment I feel the welcomes and the stars would give me something to occupy myself and hopefully keep my mind off feeling grotty! And Leiela thanks for making me chuckle at the 'one man band' - thats me alll the time!!!

pigpen WOW 5lbs in 2 weeks thats really good but.......... I suspect its because you havent been eating properly, worrying about everyone (babies and such like), rushing around like a mad thing and not looking after yourself!!!! And since you have been in a lot of pain and now your eczema has flared up it proves my point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek: You have to look after yourself better - you have a uni place now and you will need to be on top form come september for that!
is there nobody witha car that could take you to the library for the books - or could you go when tiddles is at nursery - its important to make the time for this.
Well done on applying for the prov licence and THANKS for mentioning the passport - it reminds me I need to get a passport photo done before I lose my hair!!!
philb hugs to your lady- hope the counselling helps! And fingers crossed and loads of positive thoughts for a better time ahead for you both.
rosepink hope you feel better later- well done with the washing up - just do it as it appears and you wont get in that state again.
boddy hope you have a nice time tonight - you need a bit of relaxation and enjoyment - you have been working hard recently.
leiela thats so nice to hear that the lists are helping you as a family and not just you! welldone espec to Dh for trying - maybe the harder things like you mentioned the cooker - he maybe isnt confident enough to know what to use - try writing beside the jobs how they are done and what to use and see if that makes any difference? Massive hugs for your poor woof - its so hard to know what to do for best but I am sure you will make the right (but hard) decision when the time comes. (((hugs)))))

off to get another coffee and find my list and get on!

back soon
toots xx

Hi flyers

Toots - your news made me cry, I am so sorry that somebody as lovely as you are has to go through so much. Huge hugs and I wish I lived nearer as I'd come and help - please pm me though if there is anything I can do in the months ahead from a distance.

Mr and Mrs Phil - sorry you've still on such a rocky road, wishing you both smoother days real soon

Triker - healing vibes for your hubbie

G&B you and your LO are in my thoughts, I hope she enjoys her present

Bitty day here so flying is limited to snatched bits of time.
