    (which takes about 3 hours out of the day... and anyway I write best at night)

    I like doing stuff for work at night, too. I usually get a second wind at around 10pm (often after a little nap) and work until around 1am. I've also started to get up early and spend some time on the laptop before getting the kids up. Unfortunately, the late nights and early mornings don't mix well. Also, my best time for flying is between 8am and lunch time, when I'm at work. Maybe I need to change jobs. :(

    DS2 and I have to go into town for some fresh bread and a few other bits and pieces, then it's time to fly. I'd much rather fly first and go out later, but the baker won't have any bread left. Fortunately, it's only a short walk. Best get ready, then.

    Got here safe.. had food.. watched some gogglebox.. came up to bed.. erm.. where is my bag??

    OH has only left my bag at home on the bed so I have nothing to wear ALL weekend.. thankfully, I had a pair of jeans and a cardy in the car which had just come out of the washer but I have no slap, no toiletries, no underwear, no tops, no jammies.. nothing!!! He has no idea quite how much I HATE shopping or quite how difficult I am to buy for.. so.. boots for toiletries first thing in the morning and Goodness knows where I'll find something decent to wear!! His sister is expectingus at 12ish so we have to be up and out early.. and back to get washed and changed...

    I can't just use any old thing either as I have eczema and allergies so only use the same stuff over and over!!

    you have to laugh!!!

    i did that once - ended up trying to find a shop selling size 20 knickers in the back of beyond! I feel your frustration!

    give my love to Stockport!

    00020324.gif hope you are all ok today.

    OH has just taken DS2 to open his new bank account (he gets a cash card now!) and I'm just about to get DD ready for the Easter egg hunt. Had to laugh at DS1 earlier he was watching where they were hiding the eggs out his bedroom window!


    Mumof2 when AF is due and during the BD is always round here too. It's not nice but I have started to do positive thinking and try to stay away from my normal faulty thinking. It works some of the time.

    A big thank you to Dora for my lovely package that arrived this morning so looking forward to starting it. It was really kind of you 00020143.gif

    I'm off to get DD ready then I'll do I quick clear up of the messy bits.

    Well as Miss A has tld you we are here and having a great time. We brought the sun up from the south and are going to try and hang on to it but so far this morning it is a bit gray and overcast.

    Hope you are all behaving yourselves :p not really had time to catch up with the thread.

    After the kind of day you've got planned, I think I might consider that a bridge too far. You'd have to be an :A (on the other hand, he'd owe you big style! ;)). Hope you have a good day.
