note to self p 22
glad I am doing a catch up though or I would not have seen Greenbee's confections
*drools profusely*
*is green with envy at (a) the talent and (b) the patience it took*
will zip in accordingly but am re-instigating Valli's grand plan which means two busy days getting house and work in order then I can veg at the weekend.
Too tired to pop in during the evenings because on Tuesday we had a twilight, another to come and the plan is a day off on a Friday. Blimmin marvellous as I will not benefit from that. (rant deleted in case I get tracked LOL)
Last night I stayed to do a display all by my own self (rant deleted again) and some tidying in the classroom. I left at 7pm. So in the last two weeks I have done a ten hour stint and two 11 hour ones. The 'small' people in my house barely recognise me. Burden being shouldered here. Humph.

Morning all,
Big hugs Zoe .
Good vibes to Jinkys friends Brother.
I took Ds2 to the Castle this morning inbetween the school and nursery runs to feed the ducks. All the little ducks were on the bank waddling back into the water when we got there, they were so cute. We did end up a little bit late for nursery though as we were jumping in the brown leaves for too long. I think i'll take a towel next time so Ds2 can go in the park.

Morning all,
At home today with a poorly DD1 - think its just a cold but with SF doing the rounds here will keep a check on her - I still seem to have avoided it although still dropping like flies at school.
pigpen - very sorry to read your news, hugs to you and your family and I hope all your poorlies are feeling better.
boddy - congratulation on becoming a GG again hope the wee lass is home soon
mudbath - hope your DS is feeling better soon and well done with getting so many stars this week
zoe - getting through it vibes for friday, hope all goes well
ssl - hope your first session has gone well
greenbee - cakes look fantastic good luck with finishing your dads
I am sure there were others but will flick back later and add to thispost, need to go and make a list and then jinky - I will join you in the keep going until midday.0 -
Massive hugs Zoe - we're here for you if you need us and tomorrow we'll all send lots of virtual support so you're not really alone. Hugs to you xxxx
Jinky - healing vibes for your friend's brother xx
I'm off to sort my list out for today and give you all a shock when I manage to achieve four lists in week!!
After months and months and months of trying to find a roofer we finally found one two months ago who'd do the job....why has he phoned up today to say he can do the job tomorrow or Monday! We don't have the money until Tuesday when DH gets paid because i've not worked whilst DS has been ill. I'm tempted to borrow it from my children's account and then pay it back on Tuesday - at least it will be done then. Decisions decision!
Right, off to sort a list! xx0
