    Morning all :hello:
    seems like there's lots of us awake through the nights again. :( I hope that resolves again soon. ~~~~~sending sleep deeply and well vibes~~~~~ for all that need them for tonight.

    Grey, drizzly, and dull here today. Not complaining, we've had really good weather.

    I'll have to blitz this house today. We've done no cleaning whatsoever this week. So it's looking a little lived in!!! :p

    Hope everyone's ok. :wave:

    Morning All

    Happy Birthday Jennybee

    I need to go out at some time today and get a birthday card for DH - it's his birthday tomorrow! I also need petrol and some air in my tyres but I've never actually put air in my tyres, DH always does it!

    It looks a bit grey outside so I'm wondering whether to put my washing out or not and I have a mountain of ironing as I've been washing all week but done no ironing.

    Boddy and Jennybee - friends they are not - hugs

    Have a good day all

    Toots.. those sleep well vibes are duff!!! I've done 2 hours... and here I am... not asleep.. I may get out a paint brush and start on DD2's room!!
    awh pigpen hun I am sorry - will try harder tonight- you must be exhausted - were you up from 2.15 or did you manage to doze off again - I think 'binning' the kids is just a tad excessive LOL!!!
    BTW I have 4 rolls of bright pink wallpaper with huge flowers on - would be more than delighted to de-clutter it in your direction if you fancied it - I could email you a piccie.

    soappie -oh hun why didnt you say you might only be working until the end of the month - how worrying - *more funding to keep soappie in her job* vibes being sent - maybe we should start petitions for you and greenbee! And thanks for the liver recipe - will dig that out for saturday!

    Jennybee Have a lovely day Happy Birthday :bdaycake:
    G&B nice one - every little helps!
    83rachel loads of good wishes and smooth moving in vibes to you - you have a busy time ahead but dont over do it too much.
    mozzy oops will try harder for you and pigpen tonight - have a great day out and enjoy your picnic - you must be having better weather than me - it is pouring rain this morning:rolleyes:
    Hi Valli are you ok honey?
    Morning SS babes - imagine having to S&S on your hols!!!!

    I am up, dressed and had breakfast so medication next and then work........................................

    is it too early or does anyone fancy an HHC at 9.30-10?
