Hugs Cally, hope the doc can sort your headaches out
Well done Daydreambeliever on the weight loss and on settling in to a new job so well
Hugs FFP and DS, hope he’s ok and not too badly hurt
I'm really overtired today, not feeling too good. And I woke up to the news that we didn't have enough in the account to cover the rent. Will have to get that sorted asap.
I'm just going to plod today, probably won't get much done to be honest."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

i'm in for the hhc - before i head to work.
Second day with sad light on desk - yesterday was a bit of a revelation energy wise - I didn't collapse in a crumpled heap at teatime for a change!!!!!!!!
Have sorted out where it should be on the desk - and am feeling more positive about things.....:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Morning!
Nice to see you posting again Michelle - sorry I didn't see your earlier posts because i'd not been keeping up with the thread! Hope you're enjoying being at home....it must have been lovely when everyone went back to school and you didn't!!!
My dad has a cold so his operation has been put off until next weekend. I'm glad they've decided to delay it.
Stripes had her first 'off the lead' run today. She was supposed to take it easy but obviously hadn't read the instructions. One spotty dog who's not been off lead for over 6 weeks = mad dog! I had to put her back on the lead after a couple of minutes because she was hyper! Little and often for the next few weeks I think.
I'm off to take my mum shopping, then studying, then working. I'm going to try and do a s/s for 30 minutes later because the place is looking tip like. It's amazing how quickly it deteriorates. Once I've finished all my assignments i'll be back with the plan!!:rotfl:
Hugs to all you lovely peeps xx0 -
A bit late, but I'll join you Holly.......I need direction to perfection...0

FFP thats absolutely awful re your son getting beaten up, poor kid. Don't settle until you get some answers from the school, good luck. xx
Don't feel as bad as yesterday so going to venture out in a mo for a coffee with Piggers. Will be lovely to get out of the house.
I will also get some washing done and I've written myself a huge list on ReminderFox of things I need to get done so will attempt to plow through that later.
Catch you all later. xxDFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08

Morning campers, a bit late for me as I slept in till 9.30am. And then I couldn't get myself going so am sitting here in my pj's and thinking about getting another cup of tea to take into the shower with me. First though I have to post my list. Toots I'm sorry honey but it's a major long list, but at least I can keep track of it before Saturday. I have duplicated what's on my list as to what's on Piggers list but that is really only for me as I couldn't remember what I was supposed to do, but it doesn't mean I am going to do it twice :rotfl:
Oooh with regards to the calender can I be Miss February please, if it hasn't been taken by anyone.? I was born then and I absolutely love this month as the snowdrops are peeping through and to me that means spring is nearly here
