            Hi,
 Big hugs LameWolf.

            DS1s in a right mood today so hoping school don't have too tricky a day with him
 Ok so far what have I done? Shopping, made a cooked breakfast, chucked out 2 bags of recycling and 1 of general rubbish. Organised one of my groups emails including sorting forwarding things etc for everyone, bit of a fluff on but it's done. MADE MY HAIRDRESSERS APPOINTMENT - yay I remembered, booked for Friday so I can stop trying to see through my fringe. Chucked some stewing steak, green beans, beef stock, carrots and peas into the SC for a casserole - must remember to season it. I need some flour to do dumplings as that's what I fancy, must collect the keys for the school too, erm no idea when so I best make a call to see when he'll be there. as that's what I fancy, must collect the keys for the school too, erm no idea when so I best make a call to see when he'll be there.
