Arggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh *beats fists and feet on carpet in frustration*
Sorry about that, SIL is doing my head in AGAIN could really swing for her at the moment and I am not a violent person usually, she just brings out the best in me
Soothing :coffee: in hand and then I shall get something done. Sorry to hear Mrs OJ is not feeling so good. You certainly have your priorities right, the housework will always be there. Time with the family is priceless. It's messy church this afternoon but we have to miss it this time because of stoopid SIL and her constant rearranging of photo appt to suit her family (doesn't give a toss about what we might have on) They are doing mothering Sunday things today which they started at Sunday School last week so they will not miss too much.
Old TFT and a few other bits ready to go to the tip when we go out after school. DW loaded but not full yet.
Total sympathy about SIL :mad: :mad: :mad:Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -

Took DD to her swimming lesson, she had a splash about for 20 mins only to be told by the other instructors that hers was not teaching tonight!! So I had driven for 45 mins and sat there for almost 30 mins for...Nothing... Not happy!!!

Thanks everyone for your vibes for Beffy-Boo.
I realise I'm being a really stupid old woman about this. There are so many of you that have gone through far worse with people close to you or, indeed, yourself rather than a flipping dog! And I realise that my family doesn't, generally, do ill-health unlike many of you - we seem to be blessed. Which is probably why I'm fretting.
I will shut up nowI am the leading lady in the movie of my life
