    Morning All

    My LR's a pigsty - not sure I can face that! It does desperately need hoovering though but I need to find the floor first and I need to do some more ironing to try and keep on top of it - good news is I can see the top of the basket - although the TD is also full.

    Bin day today so I need to empty all the bins as well this morning.

    I suppose I ought to make a start.

    Diva - you okay this morning? That's a very short post from you.

    Jinks - please pass my love on to LL.

    Piggers - he needs shooting!

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    I'm awake, hubby off to London so left early doors and I'm not getting back to sleep so best start planning my day.:cool:

    Agree that bringing the youngest ones back late on a school night isn't fair, it'll knock their routine out and children thrive on routine. Hopefully the mediation can address some of these issues.

    Trying to work out how to motivate my eldest DD into getting a direction. She doesn't appear to have one and is 'vague' about being pinned down about her education. I'm patient but its wearing thin now.:o

    Right best get a coffee and suss out my day. x

    Morning
    It is a beautiful morning here. Pretty, pretty sunshine :j:j
    My arms ache this morning. But that's due to the excercises I did last night using my little weights. I also attempted 50 sit up things. But I don't think I did them right cos my tummy muscles don't hurt this morning.:o

    Morning all.

    Sandy - good luck with the neurologist today

    I'm doing my Other job today so have to head for retirement land. I'd appreciate lots of interview vibes please so that I can then knock this project on the head.

    I also need to pop in the corner shop and phone the OB's warden.

    AnWs Mum - hope you had a good meal out, Mr Pangs used to be good for a group night where Willy's favourite joke was 'this chicken is rubbery' but guess that has all changed now?

    Thanks, it was a good night, we ordered lots of different dishes so there was lots to try.

  • Morning flygang,

    What should have been a straightforward day has gone pear-shaped :mad:. DS rather poorly with D & V , so no work & school today or tomorrow. I have a dreadful cold so what's the odds on me getting the D & V's too? It's a stats day at work so am now going to be doing it over the phone with a colleague opening, sorting, counting & filling in forms - whilst I try to visualise the necessary forms- I feel a headache coming on....:rotfl:

    But on a plus side I should be able to flutter a bit around the poorly boy (when he's sleeping or maybe use electronic babysitter aka the TV for a bit). Its looking like another nice day so hopefully we can both get some fresh air and feel brighter soon.

    Right WM & DW await - and a quick HHC before DH goes..

    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.
