    Morning all!

    Hope everyone is okay today. It's beautiful again here, warm & sunny - such a pity to be stuck at work! :(

    Hugs to all the poorlies & to G&B's LO.

    Natty - I ordered the April megapack the other week, despite having a cupboard full. I must start deleting the yankee emails without reading them in future! :o I do have a plug-in air freshener that I won't use if anyone wants it? I forget what fragrance it is though.

    Morning all,

    Big hugs for you all G & B i hope your LO is ok.

    Good luck Soappie ( although i expect i'm too late :cool:)

    My alarm didn't go off this morning so i only woke up when the phone rang at 8am.:eek: It was a mad dash to get out of the door by 8.20 ( should have left at 8 .15 :cool: ). Ds1 is going to a friends house after school and i noticed his hair was really greasy. I asked him why it was considering he had a bath last night and he said he forgot to wash it.:cool: So i had to wash his hair over the bath. I didn't have time to have a shower so i'm walking around with greasy hair and no make up.:eek::eek: I'm going to have to have a shower before i pick up Ds2.

    I'm just finishing my breakfast and i'll be doing a HHC at 9.50 if anyone wants to join me?

    So far today i have

    School / Nursery run
    Been to market
    Made beds
    Opened windows
    Collected laundry
    Wm x 1
    Fed rabbits

    Thank you to everyone who sent me "get well soon" vibes yesterday - they have had an effect, I am now no longer hot enough to fry eggs on (whoop! :j)

    Spoke to my boss this morning and apparently I sound much worse than I feel...I don't know whether that's good or bad...? Anyway, I have been told to stay home today but I really have to go to Liverpool tomorrow - job that needs doing and everyone else that could do it is off on leave. Ho hum. It does mean getting up at 0530 but I should be home for 1500 so hopefully can collapse straight back into bed then.

    So : gentle fluttering at some stage today. I really want to change the bed - you know when you've been ill in it for a couple of days and it's minging (sorry, TMI), but you just know that battling a king size duvet cover might just knock you out..? :rotfl:

    Feels great to have so much done before the working day starts. I leave for work at 8.10am once I have the kids packed off to school, so morning are BUSY! But I'm training for a half marathon, and if I want to train I need to *find* time in the morning.
