    soappie - the Altzheimer's society are really good in my experience, though I'm not sure how easy it would be if the old g*t isn't playing ball

    I need to do something, DH is finishing studying at 9ish and I want to at least get the bathroom done. I'm working from home tomorrow so I can do the bedroom and other bits then.

    Had a really CBA day today. Internet at work was super slow and so couldn't get a lot of what I needed done (needed stuff from a remote server), but had a meeting 3-5 with my opposite number in our other project which was really productive. I also got given a bunch of flowers! I had agreed to help a guy with some degree research by doing a half hour ish interview, and he brought me flowers to say thanks - was very sweet!

    Haven't caught up properly yet, not sure I'll manage it this week.

    HHC 8-8.30pm anyone?

    Not had chance to catch up yet - I'll try later. I've done the food shopping, been to the library, HHI and done some baking today.

    Toots - I cleaned all the bedrooms yesterday.

    I'm off out tomorrow but apart from some washing everything is clean and sparkly and up to date.

    Evening All :hello:

    Hope everyone's well and happy. Haven't caught up, have read bits and bobs.
    Was very upset to hear about MO4's DS (I think it was???) being attacked. It's just appalling. I do hope he's feeling a little better today. I'd be pressing for significant action from the police too. Even if their strategy of waiting to eliminate counter-accusation made sense.... which I'm not at all sure about, I'd be pushing for them to be taking all details/statement/photographs/evidence etc now, not waiting. Anyway, huge hugs for you and DS, and the rest of the family. That must be very upsetting for all of you.

    Hi Toots angel. How are you gorgeous? Glad you got at least a little decent news! :) The girls keep talking about coming to meet you in August. They can't wait! :D (that is, as long as DD1 is in a civil frame of mind, otherwise she can wait in the car!! :rotfl: )

    I went into my new workplace today! I can't wait to start! :j I'm really excited about it. :j They seem really nice too - always a bonus!

    So, I was very efficient this morning, and before the school run I :
    swept through downstairs
    made a chicken casserole for the SC (:drool: with spuds in it :drool: ) It was lovely!
    Unloaded and reloaded the DW
    WMx1
    then after drop off I walked the pooch.
    I'm so tired now though, *yawn*
    However, :DMonday's list is now done. :D
    Going to veg in front of the tv for a bit, and then an early night for me.

    Evening everyone.

    Finished work a bit earlier than usual. Im shattered and dont think I have caught up with my sleep after my late night.

    DD still doing well with her stopping smoking. She has been flying today and cleaned her airing cupboard out.

    Since Ive come home Ive done a wee bit of flying.

    Put recycling out.
    Put dishes away from breakfast.
    Load of washing just finished.
    Cat fed and watered.

    Will do bedroom tomorrow before I go see mum.

    JayJay14 Positive job vibes for OH.

    Mumoffour77. How is DS2? The police should be dealing with them now. The proof is on their phones. Positive healing vibes for him.

    Summermoon Hugs.

    Soappie Well done on your prize.

    GnB Positive healing vibes for you and LO.
