ajmoney thats better news for both of you - yes I agree its not nice to feel like 2nd best but it means less heartache for you both so has to be good outcome - you wont be worrying about finances or a new job for DH - I hope the person you had to speak to takes it all onboard and behaves better.
Ishtar great news about the new job and I am sure DH will cope for the training weekend - he will just have to or phone his Mum!

lots of people feeling grim tonight and poorly flyladies and their families so get well wishes being sent to one and all

lots of you have been really busy and I spotted a clean oven too:rotfl::T

I have not managed much of pigpen's lists but have almost kept up with my own and as discussed last night with a lovely flylady i have unpacked all my presies and decided who was getting what so I know where I am now:rotfl: well sort of!!!
It wasnt on my list to do but needed to be done before I went shopping on friday.

off to get tomorrow's list organised as i will be at home almost all day so might get a few things done .....I have plans!:D

love and hugs to everyone

special love as always to LadyL and Diva

ajmoney - I'm pleased about your good news. Looks like the job was meant to be your OH's all along. I don't like confrontations either, but I'm getting better at making my point.

Mollina - belated Happy Birthday! I'm glad you had a good time.

Sitting on the sofa with DS1, who may well have passed his cold onto me. I was at work until 5.45 tonight, as all computers have been on go-slow and I had to set work for my classes tomorrow. Not achieved much since then and I'll be off to bed in a minute. I'm just going to stick the TD, DW and WM machine on - oh, and the kettle for a cuppa. I took my wheatbag to bed last night and it was lovely to cuddle up to. I've almost finished my book, so won't be tempted to stay up too late.

Course in York tomorrow! :j Dropping DS2 off at breakfast club as usual, then I'm heading for the motorway.

Could I please ask for some of the famous flylady vibes? A good friend and colleague has been called back to hospital after a mammogram. She was seriously ill 9 years ago with sarcoidosis (sp?) and it took her years to get back to full-time work. Her mum has been ill for some time now and is often in hospital. She works so hard and always has time for me. She could do with a break.

Good night - and hugs to all, but especially everyone not feeling too great.

Hope everyone is ok - I will try and catch up with everything on Friday.

Night all, sleep well xx

Good morning :beer: I'm aiming to finish the front of DD's quilt this morning as we're off to Dunelm tomorrow to buy fabric for the back :j I need to do more from my Flylady list, too

I have a meeting at DD's college this evening, and she's staying late in Leeds to meet her brother and some friends and they're off to see Stornaway (pity they didn;t offer to get me a ticket ). I'm going to go in early and meet her for a coffee, so thst she's not hanging around for ages
