    in haste as late for bed but didnt want to not post that thoughts and prayers are with Lily and family, Miols mum and family and for F1 and the move. A huge answer to prayer for Mr Pippa!! What great news!
    All ok here just not enough hours in the day and energy lacking as have had a virus for a few weeks and lost my voice which was a mare...
    Mrs Twins can totally understand frustration and anger re the blanket but suspect that its due to copyright but ridiculous to the extreme! Unfortunately the big sponsors pay mega bucks to be able to use the name and suspect they will protect it because they would risk being sued....ridiculous and doesent go with the spirit of the games...would a possible alternative be to find someone to donate to who has been involved in past olympics..? Just a thought?
    hugs those that need them...

    Had a busy day trying to avoid the little body warmer addiction!
    I seem to be on 2 a day at the moment !!!
    BUT today I made some lovely chutney with DOH and sorted all the terraces out and of course just been watching the Aprrentice!

    DD1 took DMIL out today and rang us with an honest appraisal which was reassuring, We ring DMIL every day and to say things are up and down is an understatement. But I am sure we will get back onto a more level playing field soon. DD took her out for lunch and she was on top form, Loneliness plays such a horrible part of life when you are not so well.

    Well it is a bit quiet on here. I hope everyone is getting ready for the Jubillee weekend.

    Special gentle thoughts to all those with their hands overflowing and enjoy things if they are going really well just now.
    Try and do a good deed every day.

    i 'think' im going to finally get to visit lily at the weekend so ive asked lou if i can take the little bodywarmers ive made for my challenge to the hospital shes in. my bro said they have a few bits for parents but not much so lou said im to see if they need a parcel from her.
    busy on a little rabbit for lily at the moment

    red white and blue day at school today so im painting my nails in daft patriotic shades and were having a picnic dinner on the playground hope the rain holds off

    had major stress monday night, my dad went missing for a few hours, im hoping he just needed some time out for something police were looking for him but he came back home early hours of the morning. havent had a chance to speak to anyone since i got the 'hes turned up call' as his phones are playing up. his alzheimers is apparently getting worse.
    at least it took my mind off lily for a bit
    can the person upstairs with a wicked sense of humour please stop testing to see how much i can cope with i think im just about at maximum capacity!!!!
    whats the saying what doesnt kill you makes you stronger, well any minute now i should be achieving superwoman status.

    i hope everyone has a beter week than im curently lumbered with, at least i know things cant get [STRIKE]any[/STRIKE] much worse.
