    Morning everyone.
    :j:j:j:j:j:j:jTOOTS! So glad you're treatment is all finished. Hope the next week are so isn't too bad for you.

    Had a great nights sleep last night but still feel tired.:confused:Have been running loads so maybe its catching up on me. I was in bed at 10pm and asleep by 10.30. VERY unlike me. Suppose it helped that DH was out and took the laptop with him so you lot couldn't distract me!!!:rotfl:I did iron ALL of yesterdays washload though and three more things from the basket too. Then I made some flapjacks with cornflakes and sultanas in. Yum Yum!

    Penpen...I saw the thread and wasn't too impressed with them. I think the board guides do a good job and can't understand why some people get so irate about things that just aren't that big a problem. As everyone else says...you are amongst friends here and need never keep your head down.

    Best go...DD2 is in need of a nappy change then we're off to toddlers with a lunch box full of my HM flapjacks. Want to get the TD on and the jeans hung out in the kitchen before I go too.

    See you all later for some living room flying!

    Really struggled to do anything yesterday as I was out most of the day and when I wasn't I was glued to the PC researching new coats and shoes. I am hoping to catch up on a few things today.
    Son is off school today after he was sent home yesterday with nausea feelings. He tried to go, got up, dressed and ate breakfast but after that I could see he really did feel low poor thing so I told him he should rest in bed. Highly unlikely to be anything sinister however my daughter is friends with someone who has spent time with the girl in Paignton with the Swine flu so I will keep an open mind and just be aware. I told the kids not to worry cos it's not like Flu is the same as having a cold. I hate it when people with a cold say "I've got flu!" but having had true Flu in the past I know when to be concerned.
    Hope all are well and hugs to those who need them, I don't want to get sidetracked trying to read (do I ever?!) so I am sorry if I missed anything important x
