:hello:Hi dusty, and all my flylady friends! Love the story - and I always enjoy your choice of quotes dusty. I haven't changed my signature yet, because I still feel it's right for me at the moment!
sarah - by coincidence, I was talking about some of the children we teach and saying how I sometimes wish I could just take them home and cuddle them better. We just have to make the most of the opportunites we have with them. What you do really does matter.
Okay, all my teens on what DS2 has described in the diary as an Insect Day:D, so when they've crawled out of their nest, and before they beetle off into town, I am going to be flying around them. No spending the day on here pretending to be working...
Love and hugs to all the poorlies, and huge get well vibes radiating towards you from the South East (or what I recently heard described as the Far South East in a weather forecast. Sounds positively exotic)
Anyone up for a HHC starting in five minutes?? ETA crossposted PenPen - I'll join yours!!It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
