    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Afternoon campers, thought I had better pop a post up before Toots starts chasing me via text..lol Love you really Toots xxx It has taken me over 3 hours to catch up with the thread as I sat and wrote down what I wanted to say on my little pad :D
    Plus I was watching a taped programme of The Canterbury Tales at the same time..lol Anyway I think I have it all down, so here goes:
    Sexy - congrats on the sorting out your wedding. Your mam will come round as you and Moon are the perfect couple together :D
    Welcome to the newbies, you'll love it here on this madbrilliant thread :D
    Mummyof5 did the LO's and OH get back safely after the pickup due to the plane cancellations..
    Cyclingyorkie - how did it go with OH's mole appointment at the hospital? Hope it went okay.
    WB lil-me, we missed you. How did DS2 get on at his new school?
    WB Diva, lovely to see your purple again, how are you sweetie?
    Piggers re your DD and "twanky week", + hiding underwear. Take heart it was just the underwear. :D A friend of mine had her SD to stay many moons ago and when she went to tidy up after SD went home she found used sanitary pads stuffed in a corner of the room. It was pretty gross!!!:eek::eek:
    Extra special hugs to mumto5 for today, hope the funeral went okay, and it was a glorious day to remember your nan with too.
    MrsChaos I have to ask, how are you getting on with the organised mum bits you ordered last year? I am loving the budget book, it is really keeping me in check by writing down everything I spend.
    Polka how's your little ones pox? Hope he isn't suffering too much.
    Wb Froddy, bit of a journey you had at the weekend hon. Glad you got home but at least it was worth it to see Portsmouth win.
    L-L a bit late honey, so sorry about your friend - it kind of makes it real I imagine. hugs honey.
    P-P I have to ask it, I know you've been doingb this for years but how do you manage to be so on top of everything?
    Congrats summermoon on passing Numeracy level 2, well done.
    Toots I loved those quotes and blessings. I have saved them to my hard drive as I thought the blessing would make a gorgeous cross stitch piece.
    Jenny huge congrats on your upcoming wedding, I bet you are so excited.
    FFP "hugs" honey - how's the BD, hope he's gone now and you are feeling more like your old self :D
    Belated birthday wishes for Tuesday Lame Wolf, sorry it's late honey. Hope you had a good day.
    Wow Cally-c that must have a shock to see DS ironing on Tuesday. Was there an ulterior motive do you think..lol
    msgmoney - hugs re. the BD, as a BD sufferer I can understand.
    Happy Birthday cosmomo, sorry it's a day late hon.

    Glad Rosepink is ok, I do tend to skim read at times xx

    Pigpen, Not enough flinging going on here I'm afraid, will have to go back to Dusty's thread and have another go........on the up side though, OH put the big awning up last week so I will be getting the rugs and heaters out of the attic to take down the van, maybe I'll get rid of some carp from up there too???

    :jThankyou all for you birthday wishes:j - it was the best one I've had in ages! DH actually took me out to lunch (unheard of) and helped the children get presents for me (also rare). He didn''t manage a card or present, but I think that may have given me a heart attack :p. He usually completely ignores birthdays and Christmas...do you think someone had a word?! I had a lovely day with friends and family, but not much flying! (lots of cake though - pretend you didn't read that Hollyh!)

    Have today achieved Monday and Thursday stars (please T:D:Dts) and sorted out the summer school uniform and packed away the winter stuff - it'll snow next week for sure now.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Looks like DS is going down with some kind of bug, so I may achieve loads tomorrow, or he may sit on me all day needing hugs...
