    Hmph my HHC got disrupted by parents phoning. Have to remember to find out if i'm visiting granny and gramps in a few weeks. And must declutter some stuff this week to make space for birthday pressies at the weekend when mum dad and brother come to visit.
    Triker - very sneaky!!!:p

    Oooh whilst sorting out my bag yesterday, I found 15 quid of book vouchers. Think I'll head to Blackwells to get a book on irish history or philosophy tomorrow and then I'll be able to cross something off my 101, yay! (oooh piccies of new blonde hair will be up on my blog in a few days, I can let you know when if interested?)

    Lots of hugs to everyone

    stars done...
    gosh if Quillion's doing 'em next week I would strongly suggest a spreadsheet so you know who has had them and for which day/room. Mind you it might have been a bit easier had I not picked up the baton from Soappie IYSWIM. Happy to do them though! Can't do them next week as I won't be around more than usual. See below!
    We have INSET Thurs and Fri and I think I am going to be 'invited' to attend on Thurs (ie not paid...)
    Not happy really...
    Although I am supposed to do 3 INSETS a year they tend to be arranged on my non-work days so should I attend them I should be paid.

    I am more than happy for you to do the stars - are you waiting to grab post 3 Quillion?

    I made dinner then washed up and went for a lie down - in theory I was 'awake' then woke up and realised DS's GF was here - never heard her come in! Clearly all is not well then as I am NOT usually a daytime napper...and feel 'off'.

    Got most of kitchen done this morning but little else today.

    Went to see mum and she was fine. Then have spent the rest of the day in the hospital with DD. Her foot has been swollen for 2 weeks. She saw doc 2 weeks ago and she gave her a anti inflammitory. Last night she said the swelling was worse. Turns out she has a blood clot. She has had two Warfarin injections and goes for more tomorrow. Then a scan on Tuesday. I am really worried about her. We were there hours. Just had something to eat and Im going to watch a bit of tv as Im shattered.

    vanilla What a gorgeous wee boy.

    Hope the poorlies are feeling a bit better. Good luck with job applications and hugs for everyone.

    Does anyone want to join me in a HHC 7.35-8.05?

    I expect OH will call not long after to let me know he's on his way back, so my last chance to try and earn another star or two.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

Friday and the weekend a no go though as only one room (just making sure you know I'm not slacking), kitchen is still tidy though! Looking forward to starting a new week, will get the hang of it properly. Do I post that I want my name added?
