    Evening all :hello:
    Pigpen & Toots - sorry to hear that both of you have been poorly. Hope you feel better soon. Lots of love to you both xxx

    I am a bit behind this week. I did the kitchen and dining room today, and I gave both rooms a bit of a blitz. I also dealt with some paperwork that has been sitting in the kitchen. ds had his pre-school booster jab this morning. He was really good and didnt cry at all; I am a very proud Mummy :grin: I also had my nails done earlier; it was lovely to have an hour of "me" time.

    Off to bed soon; I am really tired. Sweet dreams everyone; see you tomorrow xxx

    soappie - I'm not sure whether my CV doesn't need any changes at all, or needs a complete re-write... it's either one or the other! I've sent it off to contact who has offered to review it for me, but I'm not sure whether I'll get it back on time! I think I might start filling in applications forms now anyway, and address the CV problem when it arises!

    Soappie - you did great standing in for Toots and Pigpen. I know everyone appreciates it. I do hope they are feeling 100% soon.

    I'm off to walk the dogs and then I'll be back with a list for today. Need a kick up the bum to get me moving . . . .

    I hope I've not upset anyone by wading in with both feet first - particularly Pigpen or Toots

    No way have you upset anyone, I am certain both pigpen and toots appreciate you stepping up to the plate, I know I do :)

    Just watched the programme on BBC about 10 things we should know about sleep. The jetlag bit was very interesting, not sure how many people could starve themselves for that long though. But perhaps the tip that could help more people is the gradual relaxation technique, I have heard of it before but was surprised how well it appeared to work the first time that comedian used it.
