    I'm in (honest) and thanks to all at Flylady Central Command

    Been out all day

    went for a meal last night - bumped into friend who's getting married, then went to pub, back to watch DVDs and up to my lonely bed. Was joined in there by DD this morning - hum, wonder why:cool: no doubt checking I was solo;) and we have been to Stainsby Mill & Hardwick Hall today - back to mine with a bucket of KFC to share with the Vallikids...trying NOT to force any situation just letting them get used to OH.
    Now then, he thinks they're quiet...
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    ETA Last night, while I was upstairs putting my face on, OH ASKED the Vallikids if they were happy to have him stay over and sleep in the lounge...then told me, at the pub, that he had done this, adding that had they not been comfortable with it he would have gone home.
    This seems to be one considerate bloke!

    Limps in *pathetically* Thanks everyone for the support

    Count me in, last chance to get straight before the summer holidays..............

    Is it?? I have two weeks to go... and I'm already in full holiday mode. And for those of you with last weeks of films etc - I always get complaints because I teach until the last lesson - as I point out to the students, if I didn't how could they tell the difference between school and the holidays??

    Hugs for the injuries - I have been picking gooseberries and look like a particularly nasty case of self harming. I may have to keep my jacket on tomorrow!

    I have done nearly all the washing, and also made gooseberry jam yesterday and raspberry today. Otherwise, a lot of running around transporting kids here, there and everywhere.

    No chance of seeing me tomorrow - full day at school, and the Year 7 parents' evening.

    I'll be flying Tuesday.

    Love and hugs.
    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    Glad to hear it :T I wish they all did :o It makes me cross that the Education Authority lays down a blanket edict of ho holidays in term time for Y10 and Y11, yet the last week of the summer term is effectively "holiday" *roll eyes smilie*
