Am up as we are off window shopping so thought I would get the daily chat going. Last day of my holiday as I have my second job tomorrow and back to the day job on Monday. But am going to try and be positive as there is no gain in being down. We have had a great week off together and have gotten loads done. Hope you all have a great weekend. Billie xx

    Good Morning Billie

    Just rescued chat from page 2 :(

    I've been having a tidy today and have just got the boys to get their washing from their bedrooms :) I now have another 5 loads to do :) and a pile of ironing.

    My beads never arrived yesterday so I'm hoping they will be here today :) Gonna sort more stuff from the box today, but have my Flu jab at 1.15, everyone wants to stick needles in me all of a sudden :)

    Lol, I didn't notice you had put 2011 til Doomcow pointed it out! Just shows we read what we want to sometimes.

    Had a bit of a meltdown this morning, tears and everything. Not sure what it was about but it started because I was tidying up and everytime I touched something, something else fell because we have so much stuff and no bl00dy room to store it. It was really getting me down.

    Aw tenmah...sorry to hear you're having a bit of a hard time. Can you sell some of the stuff? Ebay has free listings (again) this weekend? I had a good clear out a couple of weeks ago and made £50.

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    Hello All

    I am feeling a bit better now thanks. Been and taken the lady to visit her husband at hospital, she said he was looking a lot better and hopefully will come home on Monday.

    Just had a takeaway for tea as I am very tired. We went shopping at The Range whilst waiting to pick the lady up again, and my daughter got loads more stuff! It is hard work pushing her round in the wheelchair and my arms are feeling it a bit now.
