    . Soappie – how’s the eye? What it like without DS and DIL?

    Eye is a lot better today - not completely healed but it's on the mend. Ouch for your friend and the bump to the head. Hope DH managed to enjoy his party anyway.

    Wednesday ~ Living room, hall and stairs! Done!!:D:D:D
    Level One
    Level Two
    Level Three

    Did this yesterday.

    I joined in the visualisation last night, and am sending more healing vibes to mudbath's DS, and toots and Lady-Liberty.

    Work this morning - I got back late as I stayed to do some form filling - we have a new system of 'I can' statements, but they have to be 'traffic lighted' and a final Level assigned, for each child that I teach. Sigh. And is it at all likely that it will change the progress of the children?? You tell me. Very late lunch, and now I'm having a little me time before making sausage casserole. I have the rugby run tonight, and have now learnt that I need a self cooking dinner!

    :hello:Hi to all the newbies!!

    :hello:And another hi to all my flylady friends!

    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    Just had some really sad news. A Dad I have known for 8 years through football and cricket has passed away of a sudden heart attack. I feel so sorry for his wife and children they were all such 'family' people and don't have an extended family. He was one of those people who was always on a committee helping run things and helped out at an old people's christmas lunch each year. What a shame.
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
