    Morning everyone TGIF!!!!!!!!

    toots xx

    Seconded!

    Lil_me glad your DS enjoyed his morning, does he get to go every week

    Jill - hope DH starts to come to terms with things in time. You're a fighter so I know you'll be behind your DS every step of the road

    Rose hope today is a better day

    LG and Triker well done to both of you for looking on the bright side when things haven't gone to plan.

    Quick list update and then the older two are off school today and have science assessments to do.

    I haven't checked in for a few days other than to see where I'm supposed to be cleaning. Had a very successful go at the 'master bedroom' on Wednesday, hoovering the curtains and finding shameless quantities of dust behind cupboards. I've left the under-bed grot for next week but it's looking so much better already. DH was impressed!

    I did the lounge, hall and stairs nicely too but no stars for that either.

    I'm definitely getting the Flylady habit and it's making for a happier home!

    Thats because you did a disappearing act. All you have to do is pop in and pretend to be doing stuff :D

    Well I did post a reply after candyblue but its disappeared :confused:, I know I'm tired but I deff did.

    Anyway hugs to all those who need them. Rose and embb hope you have better days today. I'm going to actually do some flying today as DH has got the car and I'm confined to the house unless I walk anywhere.

    Feeling bit stressed and down today - there was an accident in one of my classes yesterday which resulted in an ambulance being called. No injury thankfully, and even though it wasn't my fault, and the individuals just did something really silly, I feel badly about it. Ah well. An energetic cleaning of the bathroom may be just the thing to get my mind off it...

    Awwww have you got a cold Oddjob???? ;) Welcome back to the madhouse.

    Serena - hugs to you xx

    I've done none of my list. I went to walk Stripes for her mad gambol in the park and noticed she was limping a bit. Let her off the lead which is usually her queue to run for the hills like a mad thing. Anyway, she just stood there and looked at me with a pathetic grin on her face. I bought her home but she can't put any weight on her leg and it's the one she broke earlier this year. Phoned the vet who said to rest her for 24 hours incase it's just sprained. Luckily he does normal appointments over the weekend. Fingers crossed it's not gone again. On a positive note DH had just been paid so his overtime will pay for the frog bills until the insurance pays up if need be.

    Right, where's my listipoo! I'm going to fly and cuddle stripy puppy xx
