Didn't really get much flying done - but at least I got more done than yesterday. Our bedroom is always the last to get done and is a dumping ground for stuff that needs sorting and all the hot spot piles end up in there!!

Hope everyone is well, and hugs to everyone who needs them. Sorry I can't keep up with the post. I don't know how you all do it and do the flying. What's the secret?

Anyways - I'll try to catch up with some bits as I'm nosey! And I'll check in tomorrow morning.

Thanks for all the good wishes ladies. Just back from the hospital. They are keeping her another night as she still needs oxygen. I'm so tired as i only got about 2 hours sleep last night, so i'm being very non OS and have ordered a pizza.
