Good morning! It's quiet around here - which is a good thing as I'm feeling slightly, errrrrrrm, delicate
Too late a night, a few sherbets, and the largest Baileys you ever did see :eek: Beautiful food and great company though :T We're off shopping today (cyclingyorkie, I'll wave when we pass by your way :wave: ) then out to a party tonight :beer:
Had text from OH's dd, it seems gs has chickenpox, he was ok yesterday....they are worried about how this might effect the 14 week old baby.
I caught chicken pox at 36 weeks gestation (from the chap covering my maternity leave). I was terrified but the GP was very reassuring and said they once the baby is fully formed, there's miniscule risk

Morning
How quiet has it been around here! All caught up by 9am on a Sat morning is unheard of for me
Am keeping my fingers crossed for you toots for your escape today.
It was a long day yesterday, Friday's are long anyway as it is late night closing plus the added factors of month end, bank hol round the corner and kids breaking up from school. We were a bit delayed getting out but not too bad but it did mean I missed Miss A's water polo match in which she scored a goal and the team wonThey are into the finals now so some good luck vibes in a months time would be appreciated please.
Usual swimming lessons here this morning and then need to get Miss A organised fr her Oakes trip, she is away Mon-Thurs.

Morning all, undercoat was done last night, then my mum called up for awhile which was lovely. Kitchen man didn't show so i'll have to keep on at him.:mad:
Need to get the glossing done today but it's raining here so kids will be in, it could be a complete disaster.
Toots big hugs and i hope your out of hospital soon.
Right i'm away to see what i can get done.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -
Morning all.
Toots rooting for your quick escape and hoping you will continue to feel a bit better.

If he were here, he'd just have to sweep; it's chuckin' it down with rain...
The never ending saga of the replacement windows: part of the work will involve angle grinding the concrete away by the door to the balcony, so they can fit the new door including making the step to the balcony lower:eek:
and then someone else has to come and "make good" the areas around the windows:eek:
And it looks as if they will be with us a week on Monday by my calculations...:eek::eek::eek:
No, it's OK, it'll be marvellous when it's finished. Then again, that's what they say about beating your head against a brick wal!:D
Hope y'all have an excellent Bank Holiday: hugs and healing vibes to those that want them - and I've replenished the basket of sticks to be thrown for the "black dogs" to declutter them from your house.:D‘Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.’ David Lynch.

Morning all,
We're having a lazy morning today and none of us are dressed. Ds1's on his xbox, Ds2 is watching old Dr Who Dvd's and i've been reading my book. It's pouring with rain so we won't be spending the day in the garden like i had planned. There's plenty to be done in the house though so i suppose i'd better get showered soon. I'm decluttering my 2nd cup of coffee first though.
