    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.


    Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.

    DH has gone to work - bike and train

    I've mopped the floors downstairs so nearly finished Monday's list - just overflow food cupboard to sort.

    Still snowing heavily here. Off to do DS3 brekkie and have a shower.

    6. Find out about schools for tomorrow, I haven't got any more scope for changing my hours about, they really have to be back to school tomorrow, I haven't even got more than 1 hour possible flexi to use to finish early, so if they are off again tomorrow, it will mean going to the grandpa's (I can hear the moaning now), but at least I am only 9-1pm on a Thursday! :mad:

    Thanks Greenbee, DoozyGirl, Penny and Jo and all you others for helpful thoughts and good vibes. You're all right of course. Ditched a load of stuff, big pile for Ebay, cleared out stuff not worn for a year from wardrobe and now all that's left is to put away remaining clothes. Can't hoover now because kids in bed, but will in morning. Cleared small chest of drawers and checked over top of wardrobe too. Nice to see the carpet again, it'll be even nicer tomorrow when clean ;-)
    Snow day tomorrow so will have OH and all 3 littleys. Lovely. Baby Steps - keep reminding me when I have a hissy fit! Every day it WILL get better, and cleaner and less cluttered. Thanks all!


    Well done, you did really well!!! Are you gonna try again to do a bit more today......I will if you will??

    Good morning ladies!!

    Snow day today - we have about 4-5 inches but its still snowing. The school is definately closed. My boss phoned me and we are all working from home so I dont have to go anywhere. My neighbour over the road has bread and I have milk so between us we are all sorted :D

    TAG - Asbodog is the same - hes had a mad half hour running round the garden like a maniac and leaping around like a little pup!! He jumps at the snow as it falls and then makes dog angels. He loves, loves, loves the snow. He also eats lots of it :rolleyes:

    Ive had breakfast and so has the little one, and have fed the TD. Am off to go for a bath now and warm myself then do some work/flying. x

    happy_birthday_10-728921.gifGreenbee!! Have a good one lovely xx

    Will find my list in a second xx
    :)Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying:)
