We're all up, and sort of going.....
Meeting a possible new tutor for DS this morning, and then must do some flying (or rather I'll direct operations) - washing being the most urgent as underwear is in short supply
Library trip later - all my requests (including The Secret) have come in at once, so lots of reading planned for half term whilst waiting/watching/encouraging DS in his varied activities this week.
laters me dears
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

Morning Ladies (and gents), Im afraid ive let the flying front slip the past few days. so tonight when i get in from work im redoing the kitchen, dishes, sides and floor, then the living room and hall and a load or two of washing and IRONING during xfactor. Im almost caught up on the ironing without needing to send it out. Its helping that my ironing pile is in the hall rather than the spare room so i can see it so i have to do it.
Have a costco/ikea/metrocentre run to do tomorrow so i need to get downstairs presentable this evening otherwise it will all get on top of me next week.
Valli, glad Jynks is ok, Ive got a Jinks as well whos a ginger and white tabby. He's into getting into micheif as well although its usually wanting to play fetch with a bottle top!
