    Big hugs from me too, mrscmr. My house is a disgrace too. House cleaning is such a thankless job, but once it's done everything seems more bearable.

    I'm going to run the bath, with my nicest bath bubbles, do my nails/face and hair and then tackle the house. I'll race you x.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

    Hope you are OK mrscmr.

    I have had an awful 24+ hours, got one of my headaches yesterday and still have it now, have got Nurofen Express tablets, it's not as bad as earlier. OH had to go into work late and pick the kids up from school at 3.15 as I wouldn't have been able to walk (car was being serviced). Have spent most of today in bed apart from having to wrap some parcels, go to the Post Office and getting my prescription for my tablets that stop me getting headaches, shame I didn't get them yesterday.

    Our house is a tip too, but housework will just have to wait until I feel better.
