    Just said a prayer for Sandy, she's very much in my thoughts. At least she's in the best possible place now and they can investigate just what's going on. Poor love.

    GnB, will say a prayer for your lo too and sending positive vibes. Let's hope the CT scan comes up saying no permanent damage ((((GnB and lo)))).

    Onestep, when are you getting chickens? We got our 4 five weeks ago and they're so lovely (but they REALLY trash gardens .... and poo A LOT :eek:).

    Pigpen, see you're busy as ever - your house will look fab with all this decorating going on!

    MissH, sorry to hear about that BD visiting you. Norty thing :mad:. If I can get going once I get busy the BD leaves me alone more; glad you're feeling improved again now (((MissH)))

    Here's what I've done this morning:
    Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining room - All done please!
    Also done all my dailies apart from making our bed (DH only just got up - still off work I'm afraid).
    Did this as well as going into DS's den he'd made using blankets over the dining table and eating pretend biscuits and cups of coffee as well as going to 'Chocolate World' in both his blue racing car and space rocket. Got a great imagination has my little chap!
    I found using Pigpen's list better than just doing what I thought of on my list as hers is MUCH more thorough! Found stuff you could use for a science project in the bottom of the fridge :o .... shuffles off feeling very embarrassed!

    we've going on holiday in June so we'll get them when we get back, I've seen them already, they're about a week old, and v cute n fluffy at the moment! We're going to have about 3-4 too (depends on how many of them are girls!) and they'll have the run of the (fairly large) garden so hopefully not too much trashing going on ;)

    My soup is cooking and smelling lovely - anyone want to come for lunch??
    Just going to go & do the spare room for MIL..
