HI All,
Thank you so much for all the comments re: my further study /exams.
It really does make a difference to be able to 'talk ' to you all.
I will take the exams for this year but i am not sure re next year( Unfortunately, year 1 is a bit pointless without year 2).
I was trying to deal with 'what ifs ' yesterday because that is what i do. I will stop and just deal with the next 21 days !
Cheers,
H xxx

Hope you are doing OK today.
So far I have decluttered DD to school after hanging WM load 1 out put 2 in and I have just made a coffee only to discover I'm out of milk so have powder carp in it :mad: DS1 still off with his foot and DS2 has been up all night with stomach cramps so much for my child free zone! I went out last night to let my next door neighbour know that downstairs neighbour was taken to hospital yesterday after having a stroke, poor man he's only in his 40's. Next door neighbour was just about to chap my door to tell me someone had broken into his car last night. They had totaly bent the drivers door trying to get in to it, scumbags:mad: So set up the CCTV on to record again and lit the back up like Blackpool, not much else I can do really.
Lil-me Great news that the transition stuff is going well.
Soappie glad that everyone is home safe and sound.
Toots healing vibes hope your test results come back quickly and things can be sorted for you.
Just had a thought there what am I going to do if DS2 is sick and DD needs to go to school when they transfer to the new school. I allow her to walk across the road herself but there is now way I'm going to let her walk to the new school. Must phone the Education Department with regards to transport arangements.Funfairs list of daily dreads

Morning everyone.
DH took DS3 to school, so I'm still not dressed. I must call the florist to sort flowers for the funeral. Sorry if this offends anyone but I think that funeral flowers are the biggest waste of money.
My stomach is in knots worrying about the funeral tomorrow. I can't eat so feel dizzy from low blood sugar. I've tried but I just chew and chew and can't swallow.
Can't find any suitable shoes for the funeral. So I'm going to have a look in DD1's shoe emporium (she's got more pairs than me and that's saying something). We are both the same size but don't really share very much, she walks less than me so her heels reflect this fact.

Hi everyone Hope you all well. Not been on since last week as husband aka dhead went biking on Saturday, fell off and hurt his head and shoulder so much so that I had to go and pick him up in the car. He wouldn't go to casualty:mad: but then decided yesterday to go as it was still hurting and he had been reading lots of stories on the internet about dislocated shoulders. Turns out he hasn't dislocated it and then yesterday as he was telling me about it (I was at work) he fell down the stairs!!:eek: I can't believe he can be so clumsy. Oh and why won't men take tablets and go to doctors like women do? If I'm ill, I go to docs, get sorted, fetch meds, takle them and get on with things. He just likes to whinge and mope.
Better find a list!

mumto 5 sorry I have not caught up but whose funeral are you attending?
greenbee have you ever bought stuff from Pampered chef? Wondered what the quality was like as I have looked at the catalogue and the stuff seems really pricey. Am going to a party tomorrow night.Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0
