    Morning, I'm knackered and hurting from the last couple of days so an easy restful one for me. Good news though, the interview went well and so I'm going to employ her, just need to sort out CRB checks and formalities.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    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.

    Good morning all. Don't have much to say but felt like joining in today, rather than just reading. Just off to have brekkie - back soon.

    Hi all,
    My cat woke me up this morning by using me as a landing pad after launching himself off the window sill-cheers mate! 6 am...grrrrr

    Went in and spoke to 1 of DS teachers and she said DS and this other boy are always together and DS started to cry and said he tries to move away...felt like finding little boy at this point and wringing his neck-Mama Bear grrrrrr. Teacher said they will keep and eye on the situation and that DS was to tell them when it happens so they can speak to the little rotter. Not entirely happy about it all. When we walked in the am DS started sucking his thumb (which is what he does when he is upset-not normally at school) and she said it was unusual for him to be upset-Dur, I know! Anyhoo, will keep my eye on the situation...

    Going to go to the gym TODAY once DH gets home-someone is supposed to be dropping an order off to me for VV so need for him to get home before I go out!

    Also need to do a bit of a shop, make Dr appt and steak and ale pie. Lush.

    welcome Carrot.
