Morning
I am so glad I'm not at work this week with all this ice about. Supposed to snow here later today as well and we hardly ever get snow here. At this rate I'll be off next week as well. Even if it means I don't get paid. No way am I driving that silly, dangerous van in this weather!
DW is on. I'm hoping to finish the kitchen and dining room before the school run. Then back and catch up on my Ebay challenge before I have to go out and about on some errands.

helen Do hope your DH is OK. Horrid for you all.
Zoe Congratulations!
I was hoping it was gonna be l/room today as mine is fit to be declared a natural disaster area and qualify for UN aid.
Got NOTHING done yesterday and had a bad night last night so not high hopes for today.
Does anyone have any tips for NightSweats? I'm taking Red Clover and Soya stuff but can't go on HRT or owt due to other medication. Believe it or not, I've swapped my duvet to the summer weight one, heating is off in bedroom and window is always wide open yet am still kicking off covers during the night.
Even without sweats, I have trouble staying cool enough - saves me a fortune on central heating and I don't own jumpers, coat or anything like that. I keep thermometer in living room to make sure it doesn't get too cold for health, but I am really struggling at the moment and it's gone on long enough to be making me really miserable.I must go, I have lives to ruin and hearts to breakMy attitude depends on my Latitude 49° 55' 0" N 6° 19' 60 W0 -
