    soappie - hope you feel better soon. I know you find the whole concept of resting very worrying, but please try!

    I promise I'll try. I'm thinking I might go through the bookcase and see'f there's a book there that I've not read for a while which will take my fancy then wrap myself up in a blanket and sit outside on the sunlounger. Fresh air can only be good for me.

    DD just sent a text - seems her bloke has finally succumbed to it too during the night.

    Dusty - hope you feel better soon and that Woody's OK

    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    Get well soon vibes to all the sickies x

    Welcome new people :hello:
    Welcome back Cardiff x

    Thanks for the book link Kaz I'm now £5.96 lighter ( I can't resist books on sale) but happy with the 4 books I've ordered.

    Just S&Sing this week as we're out and about and I refuse to spend my week off cleaning ......... just tidied the LR from last nights jibble, we held a family barbecue yesterday evening and although I tidied it all up there's still a few things to squeeze into the DW and another wipe of the surfaces is needed.

    Off to see Harry Potter at the flicks this avo then a quick mad dash back to take Lily cat to the vet for her jabs. Might cut the lawns this morning, I dunno whatever take me fancy....

    I'm having such a slow day.Kids playing up but they are going to their Grannys this afternoon so I will get stuff done then. So far I have managed to get WM on, forcast is dry until this evening so really want to get a load out and dried today. All fed and dishes in the sink but then it goes to pot. As I said I will catch up when childfree because at the moment if i try put something away the kids pull it out again.

    Good Morning ladies:hello:

    I am still suffering from the weekend, the wedding was fantastic but my feet and legs do not think so. I danced for about 5 hours the balls of my feet feel like they have been cut off! It really was a good day apart from the vicar warning us if the church blows up the exits are there, there and there. Now i am not sure but if it blew up would we make it to the exits or just fly through them!:rotfl:

    I am being kicked of the computer, i am going to attempt to clean myself first:o then tackle the list.

    Haven't had chance to catch up, so i hope all is well and for those who are under the weather HUGS xx

    Take Care ladies xx
