Just spent some time catching up on the postings, can't remember all of the individual circumstances but thankyou, well done and hugs to one and all for all your postings.

I've not managed anything so far this week as yesterday left the house at 7.30am and didn't get home until 10.30pm! I was shattered! then spent 2 ours talking with DD who is home for 36 hours from Uni (after visitng friend in Paris. I have a definitely globe trotting DD!

Today got home from work and almost immediately went out again and only got in about an hour ago and have caught up on all the postings. It is a really supportive 'family' here - lots of hugs to all who feel in need of a little (or big) bit of loving. You all sound an amazing group, some of you seem to cope with and do so much. You are a real inspiration. Thank you!:T:T:T

Sunday evening was the Dress rehearsal for 'the full monty', my DH is the lighting designer and managed to cut to black out just at the right moment and then flood the stage with very powerful lights behind the 6 male actors so no one was able to get a good view of the Full Monty! first night last night and aparently the audiences are loving it.

Need to go to the land of nod, sleep well all!

toottifrootti

off to do stars - finally !! and then to bed
night all

Have only just got round to posting, how on earth do so many of you get it all done, I am so impressed. Have been working so trying to get a few bits done in between school run, getting dinner, supervising homework and reading and taking kids to Beavers/cubs/football etc. Am always so tired by the time I manage to get everyone in bed. Am quite pleased with how the hall looks - how many layers of dust on those cobwebs!! By the way what is thebest technique of de webbing.
Am very sorry but have not read all posts as I need to go to bed.
Thank you
