Hello everyone,
I've finished work now until Monday. A gnocchi bake is in the oven which is good heartwarming stuff! Should be ready soon ish
I'm tired so I'm going to update my list whilst watching a bit of carp tv. I MIGHT just get the iron out.
Hugs to all....

Hiya :wave:
Sorry I didn't get on yesterday. Managed to slip on the stairs and then bang my head on the chest of drawers by the front door. DH is away but DD was fantastic and went and got a neighbour. Anyway, luckily I've just sprained my ankle and the bump on my head might just knock some sense in to me. I'm still a big shaken by it though....visions of broken wrists etc. So, I'm on light duties until I can walk a bit better.
Take it easy Mudbath, don't try to do too much.Filled a binbag, swept kitchen floor, off to make some sandwiches for our trip to see Linkin Park in Manchester tonight, woohoo, awaiting girls to get home and then we're off.
Triker, I hope you have a wonderful time.
x_raphael_xx - That's a wonderful tattoo, and a very beautiful pooch.
sockdrawer - sorry for not replying to your earlier post but more or less straight after our HHC I took my neighbour to the hospital for a daycase procedure.
Then I went to do my weekly shop at Morri*ons, went home and unpacked it (which wasn't all that much really as I've joined the Grocery Challenge too)
I had a cuppa and then went back to the hospital to bring my neighbour home.
Anyway we have just had dinner, I've loaded the dishwasher, tidied the kitchen and my list now looks like this:

Had an early start this morning when I got a call from GS2. Had to get ready and go to a certain mobile phone shop and sort things out for him and get his money back.
Came back and got rest of living room finished.
Met DD for lunch and shopping.
Went to see Mum and she is not too well. Noticed a couple of things with her and ensured they were documented. I am quite worried about her. Came home and sorted the shopping out. Xmas items put upstairs.
Mudbath. Hope you are ok? Glad the vouchers arrived safely.
Dusty Hugs.
Hugs and spoons for everyone specially Toots. Lady L. Diva and LW

Evening all
Sorry that I haven't been around, but it's been a busy weekend/week. I took DS2 to Darlington on Sunday to see Steve Backshall/Deadly 60 live. Steve was as enthusiastic and passionate about animals as he is on TV, but looks much younger.
Down in the dumps today, as this must have been the worst day in my 19 years of teaching. Will be decluttering chocolate, TV and MSE and a drink tonight. I won't change anything, but might make me feel better.
I even gave up my ticket for Avenged Sevenfold last night, so I could be fully prepared for today. Didn't get me anywhere, but DS1's friend was over the moon, as I let him use my ticket.
I've not caught up with the thread beyond the last page, so hugs etc as appropriate. I hope everyone is ok. Lots of love to everyone. xxx0 -
