    AFAIK she has - the boys had their last day at nursery today

    Yes she has given up work....I'll pass on your love xx

    I had a visit from sexymouse & her OH this evening.....she bought me some magazines which was very sweet of her. She has survived her first week teaching at her new School but understandably has been too busy to post...hopefully she will catch up soon.

    Hugs to All

    Evening all

    Managed to do the bathroom earlier and washed up & S&S'd the kitchen.

    Went to see FiL. He is in pretty good spirits, though he needs a triple bypass which should be happening in the next couple of weeks. It's a big op but hopefully all will be ok. Seems like he has had a heart attack to some degree or other. He will be coming out tomorrow until the op, so we might be going to pick him up.

    We're at a wedding tomorrow lunchtime and then the evening do, will probably go out for lunch between the two. Want to get the rest of the flying done too.

  • Very little done this week. Just got in from work (s) after leaving home at 7.30am.

    OH is doing work on front room which has covered hous in a dust cloud - even that cats.

    I've just found out OH owes someone £6k on top of everything else he owes out.

    Zombied round work all afternoon and planning my future in a rather sad and dejected fashion.

  • Morning all :hello:
    Oooo, I'm first on this morning. :)

    Just a quick post, I'm at work today, so as ever, I wonder what that will bring. :confused: We'll see I guess. I'm speculating about working full time, but I have no idea how we'd sort out child care. *sigh*

    Yesterday I cleaned the bathroom .... properly! It's DD1's job but I realised that she's not being doing a brilliant job, so I did it :rolleyes: So her job today is going to be scrubbing the tiles. There's a whole wall of them in our BR, so she's going to be delighted... :p

    Hope everyone's okish. It looks like another gorgeous day here. :D

    See y'all later :wave:
