    hello every one,

    i've been really rubbish lately as have had several distractions, like the weather being too hot to move and also my mum was here every day last week so not much got done, though the husband the kids did still manage to keep up with their job of leaving things every where!!

    so today i shall be cleaning like a demon!

    the baby is in bed, the kitchen floor has been washed, i'm trying to get all the washing done today as seen storms could well be on the way, so want to get all done today if i can.

    ok will finish my coffee then off i go...

    have a good monday every one....!

    Trying to think of last 2 things for weekly challenge. Sort of fell off over the weekend and didn't get much done really. DH is stressing over wednesday, I don't know what I can do to help, I've asked him but he says there's nothing I can do. He's scared in case they find something, and if they do he's worried they will take away his driving licence, all he's ever known is a job involving driving. He has finally agreed to go to my Mums for a week, hopefully after Hospital/Dr's this week we can go down next week, either to celebrate but relax, or to relax and work out what happens next. This waiting is beginning to do my head in but focussing on what my Mum told me, if they thought it was an urgent problem they'd of admitted him to hospital last week when he saw the Dr.
    Haven't had a chance to catch up on thread, since I last looked there must be atleast 20+ pages!!!! :eek:
    So hope everyone is ok
    Hugs for all xxx

    Bevan - you could make your Photo selection no. 4......which may prompt you to do it this week!? Then you'll only need to think of one more job.

    Im sure you must have a drawer of cupboard which needs doing, or something else you've been putting off for ages? xx

    Good luck thinking of something
