    mummyof5 and mumoffour77, huge hugs and thoughts with you and littlies( and biggies!!) for what you go through, a little boy at school has severe excema and goes to the hospital regularly for tests/treatment and when it's at it's worse seems to be very painful and he is in tears. I wanted to know if certain pets can make it worse as I know they have numerous snakes, one or two eat rats( which they also have when feeding time !!!), not sure if that is such a good thing?????

    Not a lot else done flying wise, WM on, dishes all washed, dried and put away........

    So, survived Science club with year 2s, bubble juice everywhere!
    Primary teachers, do year 2 normally burst into tears so readily, or is it just me????

    Hugs, and Happy Tuesday everyone. Toots, you must be nearly there:T

    Well I managed Y2 yesterday without any tears but had one lot of tears in one year 5 class and another on the verge of tears. Oh the joys of teaching :rotfl:

    And after a day with the little lovelies I think I will come home and fly? Well this teacher has finished tutoring and had a quick bite to eat, and now I am going to open a bottle of wine - and perhaps, just perhaps, finish the bedroom. There again.......

    Hugs to those with littleys with skin conditions....... I was one of those kids.

    When i was in my pram, my skin on my face used to literally peel of my face the size of cornflakes and it was like that all over my body.

    People used to look into my pram and say "aw thats a shame!"

    Thankfully i have grown out of most of it and suffer only from very dry skin all over my body. In winter and cold weather my skin chaps very easily and my elbows and knees start to crack and bleed.

    THIS IS WHY I HAVE 5 DRAWERS FULL OF MAKE UP AND LOTIONS AND POTIONS! (which still all havent been sorted, btw)

    This is also why i still attend sunbeds even though i know the risks. Ive found when they are really bad, a quick blast on the sunbed makes lots of difference, then its back to slapping on the cream and sleeping in bandages.....i do sympathise with you all xxx


    Am off to do my ironing and watch Gok.......Ive yet to phathom how anyone can live with only 24 pieces of clothing, which includes all bags, shoes and accessories!!!!!

    Whats all that about........

    Hello peeps
    sorry for not postingearlier but had the electrician here this morning and the power was on and off several times - always when I was doing a post - managed to save it most times so just kept adding to it until I got up to date - I think I managed to keep up with all the stars.

    12/13 treatments done so last one tomorrow :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j not that I am pleased or anything:rotfl: it will be lovely to get my afternoons back - will have to wait and see if the side effects det worse over the next 2/3 weeks.

    the kitchen is amazing - I have white ceiling and a sort of ivory coloured walls - loads of fiddly bits done today so tomorrow everything (walls, ceiling and window) get a final coat - and I have a mini blackpool illuninations:rotfl::rotfl: I think I will need sunglasses when the lights are on in the kitchen its sooooo bright!!!!

    And............................... ANOTHER HUG IN THE POST!!! well 2 actually but I think they came from the same person going by the references - a book from Amazon 'the Best Way to Walk, The Chic Murray Story (he's Scottish BTW) and really funny and 'Singing in the rain' DVD!!!! Thank you so much - what you all have done has made me so happy and there has been tears of joy too - saying 'Thank you' doesnt seem enough - you are all fantastic lovely people and I love you all.xxxxxxxxxx:A:A:A:A:A

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
