    Just reporting in re my afternoon of [STRIKE]flying[/STRIKE] sleeping :o .

    I don't know what is the matter. I keep on getting really reallly tired at odd hours. I do sleep at night too!! So, I went for a "lie down" at 2.15, set my kitchen timer for 1/2 an hour - and that beggar is LOUD!!!! But, still, no movement from me until 17.57:eek: Eveny my friends have noticed that I yawn loads, and have started joking about it! I's not that I am a lazy mare either - I'm usually always on the go. I also feel really puffy eyed all the time, you know how you feel after a good old cry?? Only I haven't been crying.

    Sorry, I ramble......so flying wise, I will be realistic - I only plan on clearing all the floordrobe, and deleting e-mails, and cooking Chorizo Risotto. Paultry, I know but (babysteps)...

    Hope all are well, hugs for one and all x

    Toots - glad all went well today. Thank you for thinking of OH - yes the interview is in Hull - but we've been at this lark too long now to count any chickens:rotfl: We'll see what happens, suffice that at the moment we are doing OK.

    On the baby front - I had the twingy thing with my son. I went to the hospital really embarassed as I thought that with my third I should know what labour feels like. 20 mins after I arrived I had a 8lb 9oz boy (he's nearly 20 now)

    Having a good day today, the bedroom is looking pretty good and the kitchen is habitable. I have remembered to water my seedlings and they are all growing nicely, though I have far too many broccoli. I'm particulary pleased with the sweetcorn.

    I have to go to Asda this evening so I don't think there will be any more flying tonight.

    Hugs to all and healing vibes for those who need them.

    Sounds like a lovely lunch soappie - but was the food any good???
    and how is darling BB - I hope her wound is healing nicely now. Good luck with the'user' tomorrow - I am very suprised he hasnt succumbed(sp?) to your charm and efficency - maybe you should show him your aggressive side

    Yes, the food was very nice thankyou. BB is fine. Her wound is healing nicely and her fur is beginning to grow back. She sends you a big doggy slobber

    The user will be dealt with appropriately tomorrow ;)

    And BTW - it's ASSERTIVE - not aggressive :rotfl:
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Hello :wave:
    Glad it went ok Tootles. Hugs to you.

    DS has stopped up chucking and DD now has conjunctivitus (sp?).

    Had parent's evening tonight and i'm so proud of them both. Really pleased that DS has been given an award for his behaviour...his teacher thinks he's a great role model. Two years ago it was a different story so i'm very proud of him. DD has come on leaps and bounds..what a difference a teacher makes.

    All lists done and i'm off to bed.....Lady_liberty - don't overdo it!!! I still feel shattered when I do too much and it's four months later for me!

    Hugs to all xxxxx

    I am once again overwhelmed by your support. Although i have only been posting here a few weeks i feel like part of a big family. :D

    Love to you all.
    xxxxx

    Evening all

    Falling behind with everything, the thread, housework, not even managing all my dalies!

    All 3 boys doing great at school and all well behaved.

    DS2 has been helping me start to clear Nan's house today and wants to come back on Saturday to help some more.

    Going to resuce the kitchen next and then try to find my list.
