Hi everyone

Sorry to vanish - been rushing around doing stuff for work and DD's music.

Thanks for all the good luck vibes - DD's audition went well (her pieces were super) except for one piece of sight-reading which "died". So we wait and see - won't hear till just before Xmas...

Must get on with stuff today. Am going searching for my list and will then decide what to do...

In my HHC I didn't get much done, or it didn't feel like much as I haven't fed the animals yet this morning, so started off with feeding half the chickens, then I lit the fire as it feels quite cold in the house this morning. Also loaded the dishwasher with towels and bath mats. I need to keep going so will do another HHC at 10am if anyone wants to join in.

In my fifteen minutes rest whilst posting this on the computer, I have also wiped the laptop down and am planning to try and weed out some emails in a minute until 10am.

Morning. I'm soooo glad we're on bathroom today! Mine is disgusting

So far: baby fed, cleaned & dressed and now napping, WM on, dishes done, S&S of kitchen, highchair and mat cleaned.

Also, the roofing guys are here replacing our guttering around the kitchen!! :j Hopefully this will stop a lot of the damp in there. I've had a word and they are also going to report back to the landlord about the general state of the roof above the kitchen so fingers tightly crossed we can get that repaired too.

Off to start on the bathroom now the baby is sleeping.

Hugs all round as seems to be a lot of people with things going on on this thread. Extra hugs for Sunnygirl's friend's little boy with lymphoma, that is very sad.
