Awww what a start to the day, lots of hugs needed for all those going through it today.
Zoe, hope you're painkillers kick in love, and you get some respite from all the pain.
Diva, sweetie, I fully understand what your saying and can completely relate, I have no relationship with my youngest brother due to my TM, such a crying shame, I was 15 when he was born and he idolised me and me him, unfortunately though it was made very clear that he was not to have anything to do with me as the years progressed. Why do some people have to be so cruel? It baffles me. I hope your day gets better and the ache in your heart eases. xxxx
Hex2, so very sorry to hear about your father in law, sincere condolences to you and your family. xx
Hellsbells hugs to you too hun.
PenPen, oh....I devastated for you. So sorry the chickens were got at. Can I offer you my Silkie cockerel, I was rehoming him anyway as I need another hen rather than a boy. I'll pm you hun xxxx.DFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08

Hex my thoughts are with you
PenPen, sorry to hear about the chickens.
I am off tomorrow to help Santa in far off lands, I will have internet access, but will only be popping to ensure you are all flying hard :rotfl::rotfl:, the most flying I will be doing is cooking, washing up, (No DW:eek:), washing clothes and ironing, I will be making pom pom people, doing sticker books, and I also understand I have to make a kite with GS(6) as he wants to fly it on the beach, personally I think it would be quicker and cheaper to buy one, assisting doing English home work :rotfl:
I will return to you all the other side of 40! :eek::eek: MissA my birthday partner you have a good birthday as well..

JillD - although it may not help, both my daughters (both ASD) were'nt dry at night for a long time, its something quite common with ASD children, DD2's was because she used to fall into such a deep sleep. Your quite right in not stressing about it because if you do so will they and it will become 10 times worse. Think you need to educate TM in ASD and tell her to mind her nose. Oh good book that may help you understand/be able to educate others is "Aspergers syndrome, a guide for parents and professionals" by Tony Attwood, they have it on Amazon It explains in easy language whats going on and has lots of useful tips. It has really helped me and countless others. Might be worth buying, you'll refer to it time and again. Need to get another copy as I lent mine out and haven't got it back!The problem with common sense is its not very common:rotfl:

We had a not very:money:time:o. I have saved for this trip for 3 years so it was soooooooooooooo worth it.
Back to sunny Essex and i've made a start on Monday's list. DH has kept the house really tidy so it's not too difficult to clean.
DD2 is at pre-school all day today so I'm going to wrap all the christmas presents and get the decorations out of the loft. I can then hide the wrapped presents in the decorations space! My children are already laughing as they know I can't hide presents under the bed anymore as we've changed the bed frame for a divan. This will fox them. They are currently at my sister-in-law's over the road. She is great having all my toot cluttering up her spare room.
I hope everyone is feeling happy and getting in the festive mood.0
