    Well i'm back from the hospital, managed to get a lift there and back no wanted money even though it was offered :D. OH came back for lunch and took DS2 back to school so saved me going out again.
    DS2 has noe been referred to an orthopaedic surgery because his left foot turns slightly in. He's getting his hearing tested again and might be getting referred to an out patient specialist department for slow developers. The Dr again said she doesn't think he's autistic but is keeping him on the list anyway.

    Phew breathe.

    So going to some decluttering and put some dough in the machine for later.

    Hello all.
    I'm back in this week; many thanks to Flylady Central Command.
    Apologies, I didn't get to read much of last weeks's thread; internet connection was so slow I could've grown old and died waiting for the page to load! So..... Hugs, Congrats, Commiserations, Get Well wishes and everything else in a neat pile; please just help yourselves. :oI feel a bit bad about not going back to read, but honestly, if I do that, no flying will get done.:D
    Will do my best this week – there's a lot of dust settled since we've been away, and I'm suffering with the heat (the sun is not a Lupie's friend!:cool:). I have already caught up with the washing, and have downloaded and labelled 354 digital photos!
    Mr LW has stripey feet from wearing his sandals – he won't let me take a photo though!:rotfl:
    Right...er... what else....
    Happy Anniversary Mr & Mrs Macpep
    And it looks like Congratulations are in order for Carlsberggal also
    Aj great news about OH's PERMANENT contract.
    Apologies if I've missed important stuff – brain's still in Alnwick!:D Off to see what I can scare up for tonight's dins – we need to have something cold, (so not the originally planned mushroom risotto) and I can't go to the supermarket til tomorrow afternoon.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    AJmoney - great news on OH's job

    Crafty well doen on Stump No2.

    Toots - such a shame about your flowers. I'd give a lot for a thunder storm here, 30 again today and too hot.

    kazw - great news on the tax refund. Mine appeared in my bank account this morning (took a good couple of weeks after they said it was paid)

    Managed to get DS1's suit, shirt, tie - he looks so smart. Also did a food shop.

    Not long until school pick up but I should just have time to dust our bedroom.

    Afternoon all

    Congratulations on your grandaughter carlsberggal :)
    Glad you had a good weekend Valli....
    Hope Lady L had a good one too

    I haven't caught up yet so apologies if I've missed any more news.

    Washing done and dried and put away.

    I did the kitchen/diner today and dampwiped the living room and computer desk. Then I vacuumed right through downstairs and did the stairs too.

    ooh LW risotto - what a good idea. I shall do my patent child friendly one...sorry you're struggling in the heat...s'a booger, that Lupus (hugs) and hugs to all baby-carriers who will be struggling in the heat

    so that's spam risotto for tea (the Vallikids LOVE it)

    I've had a text. I also discovered that I have a voicemail which I've had since Thursday (so THAT's what the little envelope with lines is). hangs head in shame

    Now

    I have been offered an 8 month old UNLOCKED (and officially unlocked) excellent condition 16GB i phone 3G boxed with accessories and kosher for £185...
