    I'm back from my governors' meeting with a migraine, so no time to catch up (must remember to take food & water in future :rolleyes:). Have just taken pills and eaten and am now going to make hot water bottles and retire to bed in the hope that I recover before the alarm goes off tomorrow.

    No breakfast/lunch/gym bag prepared, so it looks as if I won't make my swim tomorrow morning :o

    Hugs & healing vibes being sent out. You know who you are!

    Toots ~ Sending my prayers and hugs...


    Off to bed now....wrote a long post telling about my day and updating my list and the computer ate it....hate it when that happens!

    Todays small triumph, I conquered my ironing mountain :j Which means I could clean the work surface and kitchen window sill behind it! However couldn't clean all of the window as pulled my back when getting energetic with the window sill :o

    Since you are such a knowledgeable lot I will just ask if anyone knows where you can get replacement bread pans for bread makers? I have a Hinari ( cheap ) bread maker which I use nearly every day....middle ds got cross with it this morning and stuck a bread knife down all the sides, he didn't just chip it, he's made gouges in it with metal sticking up :eek:......I tried googling Hinari, but didn't have much luck.

    Anyway, good night all, sending hugs and get well vibes to all who need them.
