Hi everyone
I stared a huge post at 8am this morningn catching up on last night etc but when I went to post it I lost it as I had logged in and out again to do awards and the system doesnt like that - so sorry I am not going to go back over 150 post to re-do it!
I do want to say that I think TAG mumofjust2 and pigpen derserve huge hugs and they get my admiration for coping with the situations thet are in - they have a very difficult time trying to keep their children on an even keel and I take my hat of to them all(((HUGS))))
pigpen I am sorry for your nan in law's death - even though she was ill it is still a shock - I hope jacob distracts you all today.
to Gf - hope she has a lovely day with loads of and and xxxx


I have to say I am a bit disappointed- only sexy wished helen jelly well for her wedding - I did mention it in my post 1027 but nobody took it on board - does that mean that you dont read my posts?
She was very excited even though it was to be a small quiet day -and being new on the thread she maybe didnt feel she could mention it it a lot??
Well done to you all for doing this weeks challenges - loads of extra jobs done - great - have you all got 5 ready for next week - REMEMBER TO BE REALISTIC WITH YOUR CHOICE AND AIMS!!! ITS FAR BETTER TO GET 5 SMALL JOBS DONE than only 1 big one and be disappointed.

ok I am off to do more awards and catch up on the recent stuff
love and hugs
toots xx

I hadn't forgotten but I didn't think she'd catchup on the thread so I was going to wait until the new thread to ask her how it had gone and to wish them both well, etc.

I was too busy at work and tired afterwards to remember exactly what everyone said and I wish Helen all the best for her wedding, I didn't realise it was now, thought it was in a few weeks time

Happy wedding wishes sent to Helen Jelly

Pigen - a huge glass of wine sent to you and a big box of maltesers. What a rough old day you are having. Have a good old cry sometime and don't keep it locked in like I did. My bereavment counsellor noticed this in the first session and wants me to have a good cry and let it all out, here's hoping...

Happy Saturday everyone.

Pigpen so sorry for your loss, and on top of all the other things too.

Sexymouse dusty has great ideas, they could make a time capsule to open at the end of the year, or key stage? decorated pringles tins or something?

Done three loads of washing, and decluttered a load of A level marking, am totally exhausted so zero flying and too busy to get on here.

Marking finished by next weekend, though.

Hugs to all who want them.

sexy I would consider that challenge done - you have filled out the form etc -ok yuou havent posted it but you have it all ready and its being MSE to wait - so yes thats a heart! And I am sure the parents will be as nervous as you - you will be fine!!
nice to have you posting oddjob - glad the fire was nothing too major.
SS supergirl babes! I think it was wonderful what you have told us about yesterday - children think the funniest of things dont they - I hope now they will be more supportive and encouraging towards DD3 and not see her as different - well done for doing it.
Jo - hope you are feeling better - is that all your painting that is giving you the aches and pains?
Dusty enjoy your peaceful house and doing your favourite thing - pottering in the garden - hope the weather is good for it.
juliejim good idea hun - didnt mean to offend anyone I just felt we had missed her!

Second thoughts.. do you want to come see Jacob ? We are having family and friends and accessories round for her first birthday party!

No, you won't be intruding it is my house and I'll have whoever I like.. DD2 can raid the bookshelves as well!

Just heard from Mum and Dad they are going up the tower of Westminster to see Big Ben they might even get to touch it! It is 150 years old today.

You are right toots, I clear forgot to say anything to Helen due to this sieve I have for a brain. If it's been anything like the weather the bride we rang for had then she will be having a good time.
