    MSD - positive vibes for Tristan - I hope he's OK hug

    Bargainbird - hope you are all feeling better and really hope you don't have the dreaded lurgy hug

    On a positive note from me my crisis cleaning was cut short as I'd got the time wrong for the potential client and it was 11.30am and not 2pm she was coming!!!! I still had the vac out at this point although I'd finished!!
    Anyway she was really nice and pleased with my setting (ie my home-setting is how a CM's home is referred to) and wanted to bring her daughter back. Cue 2pm my house looks like a bomb has hit it as every toy seems to have been gotten out and I have a job :D OK its only 1 full day a week but hey I am not complaining it's better than nothing!!!
    So cross your fingers that she doesn't change her mind.

    Have a good evening everyone.

    You'll love it! When mine were little I used to grate loads of carrots in the food processor & keep in a tub in the fridge for putting with sandwiches. They loved it - still do in fact :T Enjoy your playing!

    MSD Still thinking about you xxx

    Essex girl and Redruby, thanks for the good wishes for my puddy cat. I phoned the vets earlier to see how she was doing, and they said she had been at the back of the kennel all day sleeping in the litter tray, but that she was comfortable. Poor mite.

    They are starving her from 7pm tonight, so hopefully the op will go ahead as planned tomorrow.

    Evening all!

    hugs to Tristan and MSD, little miss Haribo and Ladyshopper and anyone else i've missed.

    I am Home Alone - yay - dd(12) went up to help her dsis with dgs(4) as dd(20) is very morning-sickly pregnant - dd(20) is treating her to a trip to the pictures to thank her and she will probably stay there tonight - not sure where other dd is but am not going to let on that I'm Home Alone or else someone will rush home to make sure I'm ok

    Tea (last night's leftovers) will now stretch to lunch tomorrow :)
    I'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 2008
