    Morning all

    Both DD's schools are closed, so yet more joy of them being home and bickering!

    Got the letting agents coming to do the annual house inspection later so I'd best make an effort to run a hoover round.

    Going to bung something in the slow cooker for tea and crack on with some more forms that need filling in...it's a never ending round of questions here lately.

    Morning Pooky :wave:
    Still snowing by you as well? I will also have a house of bickering so it's out with the rolling pin :D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Nope no snow here - bit of ice left....DD1's school's boiler has thrown a wobbly and DD2's school is on such a hilly site they dare not let them try and walk up the hill into school.

    So they can't even go out an enjoy playing in it - cos "it" has all gone :rolleyes:
