Hi you :hello: and what is your excuse for being up this late?????

I have just caught up on here after going to see the new Hugh Grant film, Have you met the Morgans I think it is called. Went with a friend for Orange Weds, we had a great time, just what the doc ordered

Was trying to think what the praise from you was for and then remembered, the Tax Return!!!! Yep glad it's done.

Money_saving_Diva_2

Morning lovely flyladies!
Nicki! Hope you have a great day
Rosepink - Of course I mention you every day, my garden has lots of baby lavenders all waiting for the spring to arrive thanks to you!
Lady-L - Nice to see you posting hon and thank you for the nice comment. I am just VERY glad you are feeling a bit better.
Toots - It is first thing to me!! Plus - thank you again sweetie. xx
Jinkypinks - Four reception rooms huh? Better get an early start then!

MrsChaos - big hugs to you and I hope you feel better soon
Poppy - sending lots of positive vibes your way to help you support your son.
Valli - Just cos..
Nutty - Hugs for you and your mum
Helen - Thank you sweetie
MissH - was reading about your post about how lovely not to have any spiders and it made me look up and sure enough, corner of the bedroom - blo0dy pholcus phalangioides back again! Having watched one throw itself off the ceiling and abseil down the curtains at high speed about 3 weeks ago I am paranoid now.
for your continued thoughts and prayers for Tris and Michelle. Michelle regained consciousness briefly earlier today which is a good sign. They want to operate on her once she is a bit stronger. Tris is still a bit spacey (from the concussion I assume?) and in a lot of pain from his broken arm, 6 broken ribs and the gash in his leg, but no internal injuries. He is also having memory problems.. Sorry if you have read this on the Daily today, but I wanted to make sure everyone who asked after them was up to speed.

Off to find a listy-poos.

Diva.x

Money_saving_Diva_2

So my lists today are:

Feed the cat at least twice
Brush the cat
Sort and delete 30 emails
reply to emails
Clean bathroom sink
Spray bleach on the bottoms of the shower curtains
Email R
Fill WM and put on


Extras
Move T's emails to folder
Post on the GC thread - I am boring myself reading this every day!
Ring Doctor/District nurse
Do freezer inventory
Straighten table
Find 'Iron man' DVD
Keep leg up as much as poss.
Email homeopath

Have a good day - with love and light and flylady hugs to anyone who needs them. You are a lovely crowd of people.

Diva.x

Gotnodosh (((hugs))) hope your Ex makes a full recovery and realises where his priorities are - and thats not in a bottle! Maybe he will get some help while he is in that will steer him in the right direction. Could his Mum get the nurses to refer him for some more support?

Unfortunately I think he is beyond help. This is not the first time he has had a seizure and has ended up in hospital. He has one, goes to hospital, they dry him out, he is ok for a few weeks and then back to normal (well whatever is normal for him anyway). Maybe it is different this time as he is up North and the facilities are better, I don't know. I am starting to wonder if all this was planned (not that you can plan a seizure but I have my suspisions) as he was nowhere near where he was supposed to be and there was no easy way to get to that hospital unless planned. I don't know, I hope he will get help and it will all work out for him. I feel so sorry for our DD as she is the one that misses out on a loving father. But I have my doubts anything will change...
