    Good Morning All :wave:

    Welcome Jules, I just joined last week and its great, my hubby thinks I am mad but I am really enjoying it.

    Quillion - Sorry to hear of your new additions to the family :eek:. I have DD 8 and DS 2 but so far nothing yet but I know that day will come so good luck on your nit mission ;)

    Everyone else, hope you are all well and have a lovely day.

    I am at work just now, I start at 8 and thats all my work done for the day (we have had our hours cut temporary due to current cliamte so I may be rather chatty today and this site doesn't use up my 60 mins internet allowance :D

    I stripped the bed and put the bedding in the WM before I left so will text DH to tell him to take it out when he goes home so I have started

    And thank you - I think all the stress and lack of sleep and other stuff just got on top of me and I didn't want to dump on here so kept away! I was very touched that so many people mentioned me though. Touched and surprised.
    That is what we are here for:D
