    Morning everyone,
    I'm feeling a bit tired this morning. Didn't do much house flying yesterday. Apart from tons of washing and a bit of ironing.

    I spent the day in the garden, tidying and I cut the grass. A bit early for grass cutting but poop patrol really was becoming a major drama so needs must and all that.

    We discovered a mouse in the garage as well. Not a normal everyday mouse. It's a goldie colour so a field mouse perhaps? It's set up home in the spare bath. Bless!!! He/she will have to go though!

    I am skimming the thread. Forgive me for not replying much. It's just that if I sit in here yakking I won't get much done.:o

    Big huggles where needed and I know there are a few that need them.

    Off to potter before the school run. Be back later for a HHC or two!!

    PenPen - hope you recover real soon sweetie - was your bike ok?

    Thank you to everyone :A:A:A My eye is now a fetching shade of red all round, and slightly bruised. I'm wearing my specs atm, rather than contacts, to hide it slightly :o

    Dusty, my bike appears fine. It was brought home by a very nice man, who put it into my shed. I'll be taking it out for a proper once over tomorrow. Luckily my cycle pants aren;t ripped, either. They were so hard to find (tried on 3 pairs of medium - one really baggy, and one that wouldn;t come above my knees *shruggy man smilie* :p ) that I'd have been gutted if they were ruined :(
    She is really depressed and low in mood but she also says that she feels strangely happy for no apparent reason at other times. She has times when she cannot sleep and many days when she is so so tired. I tried ring GP but no appointments for at least a week, no emergency ones today and only GP I could speak was Dr Crap so I declined. I will try again tomorrow. I worry about leaving her at home with all of my medication here - I think I will take it to work tomorrow. I think today was a panic attack. I am not sure how to help her as everything I say seems to be the wrong thing.

    So sorry to hear this :( Hope you manage to get something sorted for DD.

    Off to work soon, and try to not startle anyone :rotfl:

    Have a fab day, all of you, Penny. x

    Morning all

    So far this morning I've eaten a bowl of cereal! But there's more to come I'm sure. I have a freecycle lady coming 10-11 - adv ice please - the other person who wanted the other thing hasn't replied since my email saying could she come this morning (despite a reminder yesterday). She hasn't asked for my address so am assuming she's no longer interested. Should I offer it to someone else?

    Also need to scan in some documents for Equifax credit report, print out a map of where i need to collect my freecycle thing from, and clear some more bits out! I am on a mission this week Then I'll have an hour in town before meeting my friend for lunch :)
