Morning lovelies, sun shining here at the moment though it is cold, sat at blooming work but at least today is the last day until Tuesday

Sandy – my continued thoughts and love to you, only discharge yourself once you have had all the help you can get from them
Toots/Anw et al – have a fabulous time all of you and Toots – hope the confirmation goes well
AJ – well done your DH, positive vibes for you both
Hex – how disgusting of him! I agree with the others to leave it in his room
Greenbee – loads of advice already, hope you find/get what you want
Juliej – congrats on your new niece
Soappie - hope they fix the boiler today

Big, big thanks to all that have sent us vibes: 3tabby, polks, poohb, gotno, funfair, lilo, gnb, soappie, hex2, mumof2, toots, aj, boddy, lemanie, lw, and diva. Sorry if I’ve missed anybody!

Haven’t done any flying, but DH has as he’s been off work yesterday and today! So can he have Monday, Tuesday and a Thursday stars please?!!!

Good morning everyone

Im off to a late start but I have been cuddling my little boy out in the garden-its lovely here today. Still have that headache but baby is wriggling loads so no nausea.
Rach do take it easy, I tried in the beginning to get it all done because I'm worried about my hips going in the next few months-but its left me worse off.

My plan today is to finish the kitchen and get a start on the living room. But I have a few errands to run today including running a paddington bear to the post office so he can wing his way to our one year old niece in South Africa (whom we've yet to meet:( )

Bloody window cleaner has arrived... he NEVER says when he's coming, never knocks... first thing I know is when he appears at the window... and I bet he's blocked the skip in. And I'm not due to go out for another 10 minutes, although I did PLAN to get changed and nip to the loo first... looks like I'll have to go as I am!
