    Just popped in to say good luck to Jue for today:beer:
    And a thoroughly unwanted hug for Piggers:grouphug::p

    My back is still aching so have done sod all this week.

    The DDD asked if I was going to tidy up :mad:as she has a friend coming for a sleep over, what a bloody cheek:rotfl:
    She asked me if I could wash some things for her, but........
    • I dont do last minute washing, I have told her this many times
    • I told her to put all her washing in the utility room
    • She dumped SOME of it at the bottom of the stairs, the rest is still outside her bedroom door:mad:
    • I cannot bend down to pick stuff up, so it will still be there when she gets home from school:D

  • Morning ladies,

    'tis a bit soggy here but the sun is peeping through now and again - hoping it'll brighten soon. :j

    Off to have hair chopped about 10.15-ish so have an hour to do as much flying as possible, because have job interview this afternoon so I best prepare after hairchopping (which thankfully has been booked for ages - I look a bit scarecrow just now! :eek:) Job is a small extra one in a supermarket, but the pennies would be handy as we're approaching private dyslexia tutoring for DS so he doesn't get too far behind. Goalposts have been moved by LEA on degree of difficulty before they'll statement, so extra help is down to us. He's year 2 and will be moving to a junior school in September so now is the time to help him with an extra push...

    Right, best shift the carcass and get on - HHI first,

    Moam
    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.
  • been trying to work out what's different about today!

    The answer is - I feel almost human!

    Will attempt some gentle flying and see how i get on!

    I'm going to start with HHI (before DD surfaces *roll eyes smilie* :p ). Join me if you dare (there'll be cake and a beverage for all participants :cool: )

    Penny. x
    well I would join you but, until today's wash is dry I have none to do *glow*

    Have done 2 WM and am hoping to get it on the line shortly. Sheets going in.

    Well done Soappie and enjoy your 'day off'. Thanks for the 'cake' Pen, I'll show her later. I'm having her old phone and it has bluetooth! (Has no idea what bluetooth is other than is away it can magically transfer sound files;)). It's going to cost me a tenner and I might get the holder thrown in if I'm lucky!

    Beds stripped, windows open, fleece on ;) just decluttering toast and HM marmalade...
