Still waiting to hear back from lecturer, I am not celebrating until I hear either way but trying not to get my hopes up
AJ, they tend to come back to you very quickly if they are unhappy wtih your dissertation. No news or slow news is positive.
Someone else asked about water bills - ours is metered and is £400 a year - dishwasher at least daily, teenagers having long showers, me having a deep bath every night, and 2 or 3 WM per day. Talking to my unmetered neighbour they pay over £500 so I have stopped moaning.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -

OH came back from cricket at about 5.30 - they'd given up........
DS1's team saw it to the bitter end. They lost but he got 3 wickets and batted at 39 runs (highest in the team) so he was happy. They used his white t-shirt to keep drying and polishing the ball:eek:

Can I please ask for some advice. DS2 is not very well, but apart from a high temperature and loss of appetite, has no other symptoms. I've kept him dosed up with calpol and he's spend most of the day in bed/on the sofa. Any ideas?
Hugs to everyone, especially toots, Lady L and Diva.

Thanks - I will do if he hasn't improved by tomorrow or if I get worried. I was just wondering what it could be, as neither of my DSs has had just a fever without other symptoms before. Have stocked up on Calpol and Ibuprofen for the night and I won't have a drink, just in case I need to take him anywhere.0 -
Hello
Not done much this week I'm afraid but just knowing I'm in the flylady team makes me keep doing little bits as I go round. I need a big push to get my bedroom looking like an adult room and not a teen nightmare. OH has promised to have a go at the drawers - the bottoms have all come loose so they are useless and stuff ends up on the floor all the time. Will probably do that tomorrow as we are off out on Monday. Have a good weekend everyone.WL 11 st 5lb as at 050109. 160209 11st 2lb
