Sorry, haven't caught up with the thread as I've just noticed the time!

Off to bed soon. Just going to have a mini fling in the kitchen - buffet food that is left. DD has decided she doesn't like any of the indian platter I bought from Asda :rolleyes: I must admit though that its not that nice anymore so *fling* Will also fling a few other things she hasn't touched which I bought for her. Cool kitchen or not, she's not eating chicken thats been sat out since 1pmish :eek:

Jigsaw only has 122 pieces to go but I'm cold, tired & achy from sitting on the floor, there were 333 when DD went to bed so she can't complain I haven't done any! :rolleyes:

Sorry to hear about DS getting punched, thats rotten, is he ok as in ok in himself etc ? But worrying for everyone.
Oops just realised of course you wont read this til during school hours but hey ho theres my 2p worth!

Valli I must be grown up too. I have a button tin, I love it, love the buttons, and never ever seem toneed any of them. But I still love it

Another snow day for us here. Watched Bee Movie with kids this morning, we got it for Christmas. Also got Charlottes Web so will be watching that tomorrow (Fri) as its another snow day. Not planning any flying, had a migrainey head today so planning a restful day tomorrow. Should be in bed really.

Hi everyone

Hi flyladies,

I am not really posting today yet but wanted to send love and hugs to everyone who needs one especially LadyL and toots and Rose and of course Jinkypinks.

Tris is not so well and my cat Treacle had a fit about an hour ago so I am a little preoccupied.

I will come back later if I can.

I hope you all stay warm and safe in this bitter weather.

Diva.x

Morning All

There is a chance that I may not be going to work today as we had a problem with the drains yesterday and they hadn't fixed it when I left so if they're still not fixed the school will have to be closed = it would be nice to get a day at home without the kids actually - I could get loads done and it needs doing after having the kids at home 2 days this week.

I know a lot of hugs are needed so have 1 each - or more if needed - as I read the thread last night so although I can remember reasons I can't remember who to attach them to.:o

Good luck with your recital aj.

Right let's have a look at this week's list - I know I haven't done a lot on it which I will rectify if I'm at home today.
