  • Morning lovelies,
    Its a dark and dismal day here in Herefordshire.
    Just got back from the school run and im chilling with a cuppa before I start packing the kids stuff ready for the weekend :j. Got work this afternoon which im not looking forward to as Ive just enjoyed 3 days off. The house is loverly and clean/tidy just need to potter for 5 mins in the kids rooms, why cant kids put anything away?
    The WM is on and the drier will be on shortley so I can iron that lot once its finished and put it away. Need to pay my rent at some point today so off out in the wind and the rain :sad:. Anyway ive waffled long enough..

    Hope everyone has a great day,
    HUGZ to those that need/want them
