    I've got to go to work up at the anti-viral centre in a minute, working until 8.30 tonight but it's all extra income!!!!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    morning everyone

    Ooh slate, I hope it works out ok with the meeting.

    Lovely pic luc :) little sweetie, but there goes your peace and quiet, lily is into everything she shouldn't have. I swear I'm going to ebay all of her toys for the use she gets out of them. Give her a bit of fluff or a sweet wrapper and she'll sit there for ages.

    I don't know what to do today, kids are bored. Amber keeps giving me a suitcase and telling me to go and pack. I assume she means for all of us and she's not throwing me out on the streets.
    awww bless her, maybe she would like to go back to the caravan:D

    I think she does, she keeps saying 'caravan has finished now' followed by a lot of huffing and banging about.

    Afternoon all

    Sorry to hear of the work situation Linda. Nightmare.

    I'm so stressed this week, my DLA renewal is due and I've had to wait this long to do it, just hoping somewhere has an appointment to get it done this week. Have an MRI tomorrow too _pale_ So scared.

    Fingers crossed for tomorrow Gemmzie.

    We're having a mystery lunch. Found 3 tupperware boxes in the freezer with unknown contents. One is pea and ham soup, which DD has claimed but the other 2 could be anything. Wish us luck :p
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
