    I've just in the last hour realised that Erin is off school tomorrow!! i swore she was off mon/tuesday but it is fri/mon/tues!!

    so grovelling visit to my mum (who i had pencilled in for tuesday babysit) to see if she'd have her tomorrow as well... and she will, in fact she's sleeping over at nana's... so i get to go swimming in the morning! yay me!

    Elliot's off school too, teacher training day apparently so I've taken it as leave and we'll go out for the day, it is his 12th birthday so he'll have money burning a hole in his pocket.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Bun, I have my mum and brother close by but I haven't had a night away from Bea since she was born and if she doesn't come to leeds that will be my first one (so I may well bring her otherwise I'll be a wreck!)

    Im not sure I could come this weekend, am so tired after Sunday not sure I can cope with the drive - not trying to make an excuse would love to come

    I'm sunk if she ever finds this forum.

    I feel really bad about not going in but I feel totally rubbish and would probably have lost my temper.

    Gemmz, your sig has said £1500/£1500 for a new boiler for ages, have you got one yet?

    That's what I'm saving in my £1 sealed pot for.

    Ok sal, the offer is truly there-you could take it easy and stop a few times-Freya and Joe would love to play with Bea!

    i thought you were bringing Bea...? I'm bringing Erin for sure!

    Sammy - are you sharing with us!? It's gonna be crowded... it's a twin, hopefully with a sofa bed.... I'm bringing a sleeping bag just in case we need it!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
