Morning everyone:hello:
I can't believe that I've managed to grab hold of the puter before DH.:T He's constantly on it all the time still. From the time he gets up to the time he goes to bed playing this stupid poker game:rolleyes::mad: Which is why I'm not posting much at all.

As is usual these days I'm so behind with what everyone is doing or not doing etc. So I hope everyone is OK and I am really missing you all I have to say.

I've quickly skimmed this last page - mOZzy I see your still not sleeping. Me either. But, the last 2 days I've stayed up till 1.00am then read my book for half an hour and I've managed between 4 - 6 hours straight sleep:j I've decided it's better to stay up late and wake early anytime from 5.00am onwards than to be tossing and turning at 2, 3 and 4 in the morning.

I also have to confess to having had the few roll up ciggies over the last week as well.:o No more than 5, tops a day. Most days it's only 2 or 3. I'm not very happy with myself but at least I haven't bought any and the plus side is that I can take them or leave them IYSWIM.:o:o

Just to keep on topic though - flying wise I gutted DD's bedroom yesterday. She's at Nanny's so I've had a wail of a time sorting and flinging to my hearts content, without her around to fish back out what I've flung;) So today I plan to clean it, which won't take long and perhaps whizz the carpet cleaner over it quickly. Never no I might actually get a star.

Off to do something.....not quite sure what yet but fingers crossed I'll catch up with you all in a bit...................DH permitting.

Morning All!

Bet you thought I'd disappeared off the face of the earth. My excuse is I've been busy at work - back up to 5 days now and am knac5ered. Have kept up to my flying as my elbow feels a lot better now it's a bit warmer.

I'm sorry I don't know what you have all been up to, so hugs for all that need them.

My dad had a new hip 2 weeks ago and is doing ok. DS is over from Germany for 5 days before he goes to Czech Republic for a month on exercise.

Going camping as soon as I finish work today at one. All the things to go in the car are in the dining kitchen, can hardly move for the stuff so quite glad I'm at work this morning! So DH has to pack car and I'll just swan in change out of my suit and get in the car, no bad eh? But there again I did get most of it out last night.

Friday fun! - childrens rooms
:j:j:jAll done:j:j:j

My kids are 'old' now, age 20 & 16 & are responsible for their own 'pits'. DDs room is spotless as she had a good clean out & declutter earlier this week. DSs is still in bed but I'll be cracking the whip when he gets up later.
All their bedding was washed & dried last night.

Having a gardening day i think if it doesn't rain too much & will put some flea stuff on the cat.
And there's baking lined up as well, cakes for the weekend yum!

Hope everyone has a good day!
