    Evening everyone.

    Just a quick post to catch up with you all.

    Will do the bedroom tomorrow.

    Ive been to see mum then done my meeting and greeting. Was late getting home as I waited for my DD. She is visiting one of her ex partners mother every day in hospital. The poor woman will not get better.

    Done dailies
    Uniform in washing.
    Going to potter round now and do a few little jobs.

    Looks like a few of you need big hugs so sending those.

    Toots Take it easy. Was thinking about you today while I was at the hospital.

    Right I've been catching up with the thread...
    Mrs Dawn - well done on getting over chaos! I'm still getting there...
    Rose - hope you feel a bit better tomorrow
    nicki - congrats on the new bed!
    embb - beware of TKMaxx - it's deadly!.. Oh i see Flower has already warned you!
    Lola - good job vibes for your OH next week!
    Toots - thankyou - I think granny is okay, but its very difficult to get her to actually tell us anything. Good luck for your last three sessions, and thankyou for always taking the time to show all of us that you care.

    Ooh I've just looked out of the window and there are about a hundred bikes going past! How strange... Anyway

    serena - hope your DD had a good time on her adventure
    TAG - hope your DD feels better in the morning.


    Anyway, I've written my referat today (German speech) and done some more on my notes for my french oral - can I have some 'bon chance' vibes on tuesday morning please?? On the flying front, my boyfriend has done barely any of his jobs, but he did vacuum, and tomorrow he's going to sort his clothes (and take me shopping!). I'm going to throw something out for each new thing I get.

    Right off to put the kettle on. Anyone want one :coffee: ?

    ETA - big hugs Jo, lots of love to you.
    Body that's very sweet of your DD.

    Hope your Mum was well Boddy. Hugs for your DD's ex partner and your DD. I know it's very difficult visiting every day in those circumstances.

    I have also split up with Mr Jo too for good this time it seems so just need some time to myself. Will still be around, following my lists etc and flying - but will be chatting less.

    Big big hugs xx_Jo_xx - take it a day, or even an hour at a time. You WILL get through it...

    Just finished HHI.

    The lady is the mother of DDs ex partner who died last year. She has not been well since. DD used to go shopping with her. But when her eldest son died she never went anywhere. She has one other son who is good to her. Its pnumonia and spread all over. She is refusing meds now. So if anyone could give her a little thought please.

    Toots Its 8 weeks since she gave up smoking and doing well. Hard for her when we went to see mum and mum puffing away like a chimney.
