    Morning folks,
    A tad windy here today!
    Bad news, mum has been kept in hospital (with her mouth problems.....an autoimmune thing), so slightly distracted just now.
    Did be a good girl and do good S and S's of toilet, bathroom, kitchen (again!), dust round bedrooms, lounge, hall, computer area, another load of washing, finished first preemie cardi (here if anyone is interested!) and started a body warmer, so not too bad.
    Today's plan is more knitting, continuing with potty training DS, perhaps nip to shops and also laundry (stuff put away as dry etc!).
    Big bugs Zoe, no idea how you must feel, but my thoughts are with you.
    Rosepink, I agree with what others have said, you need to get some face to face help, and also prayer and your Bible will help you through it too (Sorry folks for this religious talk, don't want to scare you, but to Christians faith is a great healer!)...PM me if you need to chat! As for chiro/osteo, well I think I might consider going back to chiro (although did have a scary experience before!).
    Bye for now, hope the rest of you are behaving ;).

    I've not been flying so much as... waddling over the past 24 hours! I had to get 2 bunnies and 1 dog to the vet last night (last time I do double / triple appointments - much too difficult!), then had to drive OH over to my Dad's to pick up his car which my lovely dad has fixed. By the time we got home it was nearly 9pm and we hadn't eaten, so I cheated and used a jar of curry sauce. Didn't manage many of my jobs yesterday. Must do better.
