    Morning all,

    I'm off today, and I'm going to try and book a doctor's appointment, cos this cough etc is really doing me in - had another bad night fever wise, and the cough saw to any sleep I tried to get. The fact that the cough is accompanied by a temperature, makes me think it may be an infection, but I may be wrong.

    I have to call in every day to school, unless the doctor has signed me off, so that they know what is happening each day, which is a pain, as I get nervous every time as to how the Head will be. She's been fine so far, but not sure how she'll react when I call her this afternoon about tomorrow. Hopefully the fact that I've been to the doctors will help there.

    I'm more worried about not being better for half term than I am about school (especially now colleague has shown her true colours too), as I've got lots of plans - Monday night Moon and I were due to go for dinner at the Slug & Lettuce as our Valentine's meal, and Tuesday is pancake day, then Friday, I'm getting my hair done.

    Well I'd better go and find the number for the doctors, as the surgery will be taking calls in a few minutes, and it's a nightmare to get through normally, particularly towards the end of the week.

    Take care everyone,

    sexymouse xx

    ETA Happy Birthday natty! Also, Moon cleaned the bathroom last night, so some flying done in the mouse household. :)
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
    I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/2017
  • Good morning everyone :beer: I have lots more paperwork and admin to sort today :( so will crack on once I've decluttered DS and made a :coffee:

    But maybe the Extra on Thuirsday list Do a mini-job you have been putting off forever.. an email or letter or whatever! - Should be arrange to have a smear as at my age of 31 years - Im very afraid to say it but ive never had one :eek::eek::eek: I think I will need at least a few bottles of Brandy to drink if I do go and get one done ;), as I am petriefied , so I need a kick up the Butt to get me there and I do realise that for my daughters sake I should have one :(

    Please, please, please put that on your list and we'll all nag you until it's done :D Having a smear isn't nearly as bad as childbirth, and I'm surprised that your surgery isn't calling you and nagging you themselves :naughty: :mad:

    Happy birthday to Natty

    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    Happy Birthday Natty :bdaycake: have a lovely day! xx

    Work this morning then the big clean this avo, you still up for it valli? Doesn't need much tbh as it was only done on Saturday but it will keep things ticking over and keep a routine. I've got the WM on, finally brought the washing in off the line and slung it on the rads, brought the bin in, made beds, tried to find littleys swimming hat-to no avail *sigh* made pack-ups, tidied LR, emptied the bin next to the pc and re-bagged it, put rubbish in bin outside, folded some wet washing up to go in TD later.

    Best scoot, laters :hello: x
