    morning everyone

    Evie's about to go for a nap and then we're off swimming. she's still a little off colour but i'm hoping that a good swim will do her the world of good!

    This afternoon, I'll mostly be doing housework and preparing dinner (chicken casserole with cheesy dumplings)!

    Have a great day everyone, Cat.x

    Morning all

    Its not misty today, but still cold. I had to wear my hat when I took the kids to their bus stop, as the cold gives me ear ache. While I was there I did my good deed of the day and assured a bloke he was driving in the right direction.
    I'm in a better mood today, bits for the Rayburn should arrive today and the chimney sweep is booked for Friday. :j
    Need to nip into town to get a mouth guard for my son, who needs one for tomorrow and has lost his. Told him, he'll have to pay for any more lost ones after this.
    Later on I've got my Rainbows, then sorting my daughters to Brownies and Guides.
    Hope all the sick bods are feeling better soon, and the job hunters find something soon.
  • Morning all :wave:

    It's sunny but very very fresh here this morning. BRRRRRR

    Hoping to have an easy day at work, however I've got a feeling things are going to blow out of all proportion this afternoon.

  • That's a mammoth list Luc! :eek: Good luck.
    I am now alone with my little man who is refusing to take his nap.
  • morning peeps.... very tired this morning.......

    (((hugs for the poorlies)))
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

  • Phew- sleeping baby!
    Trying to work out a plan to take him to MIL's between sleeps and feeds!
  • Sleeping thread too!

    Its not as bad as it looks - we did heaps over the weekend so it really is just a case of swishing and swiping to keep on top of it;)
