Hugs mamamia loosing your nan is tough. I lost mine 2 months ago. We had strawberries from our patch today and I used a cut crystal style sugar bowl and jug for the cream from her kitchen and the kids loved using them. Try to do special things to remember her by and to keep her close.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0

I was just catching up and realised the time! So catching up will have to wait, I need my bed!
Here's what I got so far:
Rach, glad your sister is improving and that you had some compliments from your boss
Big hugs Michelle, I think going to the doctors is a good idea. The throat and chest thing – I used to feel like that when getting a panic attack. It is perfectly normal to feel that way when you are under intense stress, its just your body telling you that you need to slow down and take it easy.
PM me anytime sweetheart if you want a chat
Mudbath glad you are so upbeat!
This is very odd, I can smell ginger biscuits!
Glad they’ve found out who the boys are Sarah, and that they will be punished. Prefects or not, they should know better
Hugs and congratulations to everyone as applicable

dusty - its nice when you can use items with sentiment attached, i have quite a few of mums plates/bowls etc which we use often and remember the occasions when she used them.
I am also going to have one of mudbaths yyyyeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhs as i have finished one of my OU courses sent of the final CMA tonight. I have also started the assignment for my second course which is due next week 3 of 6 questions done just need to start the work for the others.
no flying to report or update will find my list tomorrow and crack on with it then.
Could I ask for all go well vibes for my DD1 for tomorrow she is having 2 teeth extracted at the dentist for the build up to having a brace fitted over the summer i am such a wimp that OH is taking her tomorrow (i have a fear of dentists from my own childhood and having teeth taken out at the dental hospital for a similar reason)I think I am more worried than she is but better for her that i am out of the way at work tomorrow.
Calling it a night now but will see you all after work tomorrow afternoon.0 -

awww hun, I'm sure it'll all be fine. My DD1 had 2 teeth extracted a while ago ready for a brace.... I didn't tell her about about the injections. She agreed after the event that was the best thing to have done!She was just fine and dandy, and quite pleased by it all once it was done. She's a gruesome girl, and loved the holes left by the teeth!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

jjef hope your DD is ok tomorrow
Juliejim happy anniversary, hope you have a lovely night out
Michelle ((hugs)) I think you're being sensible, you sound so drained honey. To be honest with the situations you are dealing with, it's not you who's gone down hill it's the children you are dealing with. I am sure your wondeful teaching skills would shine through in a class which appreciated it, to have 2 LSAs for a class usually shows to me how many issues there are with the children. If it was me, I'd do the maths and probably take a career break if the sums weren't worth it.
LL ((hugs)) take it easy honey
Pollybear wow a train room!! Oh and let him clean it
carlsberggal nice to hear from you
SarahS I hope they do drag them over hot coals!
pigpen you deserve a YEAH!!! well done, good progress
Been giving some serious thought to DPs Dad's offer, thanks for your views on it. Soappie :rotfl: made me laugh with the putting it away comment, just what my friend said today. Think we have decided even if it means putting on 0% card to pay off in October we'll go. Our incomes tied up in hols we have booked and I don't want to penny pinch further to go. What greenbee said also stood out, it's for the boys to spend time with their Grandparents, they seem to be wanting to spend more time with them now they are retiring. So looks like if they haven't changed their minds, DPs Dad had been to the pub but seemed to be sincere, we're taking the boys on their first trip abroad this year, eeeek!
Cleaned the 'seats' part of my car today (it's a people carrier but the seats are down in the back) 3 bags of 'to keep/sort' junk, 2 carrier bags of rubbish, pair of wellies, 3 shoes and a pair of sandals.....not even touched the boot yet which is fullhow bad. Will vacuum it tomorrow, remove the seaside!
Went to a 'new' farm shop today, it's not far from the caravan storage (had to pop up for fridge number for warranty claim) but always have caravan on when we go past so popped in. Got 3 wonderful rump steaks (just eaten one, yum yum!!!) 2 large gammon steaks (enough to split a piece off each for the boys) sack of spuds, swede, brocolli, dozen eggs, 12 large sausages and about 30 rashers of bacon - cost me £42. Think I will use them again
I've managed 3 washer loads (we did have a little rain) tidied kitchen a bit as it's a poo tip again, folded some laundry, done usual dailies and ..... went back to bed this eveningnot sleeping on a night as so warm so went off to bed when it was cooler after the rain. Now I'll be up until 4am again :rotfl: oh well at least I've had some sleep.
One day I might be more organised...........

Morning All
Well I have washing on the line and another load in the WM - will my laundry baskets ever be empty?
DD is sleeping at my mate's house tonight but I am picking DS up when we come in. They're both over there all day tomorrow as the school's closed for voting. She refuses to have DS as he wakes up between 5.30 and 6 in the morning! I'm hoping we'll be able to start early and finish early - we normally work through lunch so we can get off early anyway.
My cousin's funeral is next Tuesday at 11.30. I've already got a hospital appointment with DS at 9 so by the time he's had his bloods done, seen the consultant and I've dropped him off at school I should just about get there in time.
I'd better go and write in DH's card now before he gets up.
Have a good day all
