    Morning everyone!

    Hope you all have a lovely sunny, happy day today!

    Munchki - YAY! you just wait til I get a car, I will def be visiting! I am getting all excited for you!

    Toots - that sucks a bit, don't agree with the way they did it, but maybe it is for the best. Ok, so it is going to be a pain finding somewhere else, BUT, if he has no proper coach, then maybe he is better off elsewhere, where he has someone to push him and realise his potential. Least that way, you can say that he is getting his monies worth out of a membership.

    Oh, bugga, just noticed Inbox full again :(

    As for me, I think it is about the time of the month that we should be looking back at the commitments we made and seeing how far/reminding ourselves what it was we wanted to do. I know I am :D

    Flylady, I think is good, however am substituting a bit, where they have Half hours cleaning/ironing, I am doing half hours listing. Timing myself and everything, first stop, books :D Everyone who wanted a copy of the list, please could you PM me your email address, that way I can fire them all acroos to all of you together and know that I will have enough room to squeeze it all on!

    Happy, happy, happy this morning, odd, beacuase DD1 had lots of nightmares last night (5!!!) and she is old enough now to tell me thats whats wrong, bless her, her wording was "I didn't have a nice sleep Mummy, it was too scary". Ho hum, I love it when the sun shines :D going to plant me tatties today and crucify the cat that thought my freshly dug and planted onions was a new poop spot :mad:

    Just sent you a pm MummyP :D

    It is a mad morning here all ready - had a power cut from about 7.15am till just before kids went to school, wasn't sure school would be open if power cut had continued because of fire alarm issues etc, but thankfully all seems ok now. Though my OH didn't have a work shirt to go to work in, so has gone in a casual shirt as power went off just as I was about to iron...oops!

    My little girl is still really poorly but so far today has managed to keep her boiled water down and some nurofen to....so she is now feeling a bit better because the medicine is kicking in...going to risk her having a little bit of toast at about 10am.

    Very worried about forums being down on Friday....AAAAARRRRG! Mind you may get some jobs done instead of sitting at the laptop pressing f5!!

    Munchki - you may physically be on your own on Friday but you know we will all be toasting with you, so not really alone at all!!! All around the country we will be shouting :beer: 'Cheers, heres to Munchki in her new home!" Any news on that other job interview by the way?

    Mabel - have fun with your nieces!! Don't think I am going to get chance to send your package this week as stuck in again today with poorly girl.....will do it though :D

    Laura this thread is VERY addictive!! Oh and happy birthday to the Queen!! Is to day her real birthday? My little girl thinks she is the Queen, she wants a second birthday!!

    Toots - horrid now but actually might be the best thing for him!

    NLID - hope the appointment went ok.

    Morning Jo - think she on the mend as she has kept down water and medicine for over an hour and half nearly, thought I 'd try toast now as have no where to be for a while so if she isn't I'd rather know now!!!

    Hope you are ok? What exciting plans have you got for today?

    Think we will plant some seeds today but if I'm honest I'm feeling a bit down and grumpy today so haven't got very far with exciting plans.
    Am having some cereal and another cup of tea and trying to work out whats going on with me.

    saw a blogpost somewhere where they celebrated half birthdays with a cake and some little homemade presents I think.
