    Morning all,

    Well another disturbed night as woke up with the pain in my tummy as I must have moved in my sleep. Still no other symptoms, so wondering whether to go back to the dr or not or just ride it out, and hope it gets better on its own. This will be the third day with the same pain (sort of a bruised/muscle/stitch type of pain but just on the right side of my tummy button).

    Would love to meet you all at the flylady meet penpen, but it would take me 4 1/2 hours to get there (up the M1), so not really practical for me. Shame, as I'd love to meet you all.

    Had lovely cuddles in bed with Ebony last night and this morning - I finally convinced him that our bed is safe after over a year of trying to persuade him (he still remembers being taken off the bed to go to the vets, and I also don't think he likes the instability of the memory foam matress, as he finds he sinks into it with his 3 legs). Just looked out of the window, and caught him eating something, so looks like he may've caught a bird. :(

    Well I'm determined to get on with a little bit of flying today (nothing too strenuous though - won't be hauling the vaccuum cleaner around) - looking at our metal window frames, they've started to get a bit mildewy, so I'm going to go round with an antibac wipe to clean them all off in a minute. Also need to descale the shower head, as that's long overdue.

    Hugs to all who need or want them.
