    Thanks Spud...I know it will get easier. As much as I am looking forward to Easter there is a part of me that is dreading it. I know it sounds awful but its just out of my routine and just the 2 of us.

    Morning Diary, Hello April, Hello Easter holidays

    Well have had an ok few days, slept well and obviously feel better for it. Haven't got any plans for today but I think if the pool is open I will take B swimming as we both need some exercise and she gets free swimming and I get in free as I have to take her :)

    Tomorrow B has swimming lesson and then we are heading to my mums for the weekend :) Must remember to take the laptop with me

    Money things are still a bit in limbo until I hear back from Housing Benefits with new claim..then I need to see if they will take the overpayment off my award.

    House clearing is still a working progress, I need to clear stuff away methodically and then I can get some of OH's remaining stuff in the loft. The loft needs clearing too...

    My loft is a very scary prospect. It will need to be done at some point because there is far too much up there than is good for anyone! But still too scary to consider doing any time soon :o

    There is so much up in ours balancing on the beams that I am slightly scared that it might fall through so really have to get it cleared! Most of it is OH's suprise suprise!

    Hope you have a good swim and enjoy the time at your mums!

    We don't have a loft here - it's been converted into a bedroom....does make you very focused on what you can and can't keep.....does it fit under a bed? Yes...keep.....No....chuck it! :D

    What are you going to do with it Sal?

    eBay it? Chuck it? Make XOH take it with him?
