    froddy HUGE hugs and prayers for your pupil's family and friends, and for you too.

    pigpen. It takes a lot to make me angry but your vicar has really annoyed me so I can't guess how you feel. He obviously missed something in his training, that he is baptising the baby into the family of God, not you. And, you have done amazingly to keep your youngest going to church activities.

    I have DS1 at home for the weekend so we are going to try to address his none sleeping and financial problems first.

    A visit to the vet first. Then the chemist, then letter to Banking Ombudsman on behalf of DS1.

    Today I a decluttering DS1s problems as best I can :)

    Evening. I'm here to ask for thoughts and prayers for the family and friends of a girl from school who, this morning, lost her battle against pneumonia after 3 weeks in ICU.

    She was a great girl who had to deal with many disabilities in her life, but she was usually full of fun and rather cheeky with it!

    We heard the news right at the end of the school day and it came as a huge shock as we had heard yesterday that she was improving.

    Thanks everyone x

    So sorry to hear that, my grandad died of pneumonia after living a full life, I hate hearing of anyone who doesn't have that chance.

    Very tired this morning, was on the phone to the police at 2.30 am after the FWs over the road were being a pain again but worse this time. There was a car of young lads with them standing on one side of the car and throwing firework type things over the car into the middle of the road. The woman heard one going off so knew what it was like, I fell asleep after about an hour and no police had turned up by then!

    Good afternoon all, thanks for the kind words Toots and Poohbear xx
    Hope al are well and hugs to those in need xx

    Went out with Mum last night to a charity fahion show....very expensive but got a nice fleecey jacket thing in the sale....reduced from £60 down to £25!!!!

    Neck and shoulder still sore but managed to hoover through this morning and turn the cushions on the sofa....while OH sat in the kitchen and read the paper!!!!!
    He has gone into Cardiff now to watch the match (2:30 kick off so nothing will be done here after it starts :) )
    Have done some washing and stripped the beds(well, DD stripped her own :) )

    Going to put our bedding in the wash now and find a list....xx
  • Morning all
    a bit dull but dry

    froddy how very sad but she has brought much joy to a lot of people and that must be a comfort to her family - maybe not at the moment but in time - my thoughts and prayers go to her family and you and all who knew her- she is now pain free and at peace. (((hugs)))
    Dusty you were up late honey. hope you dont get too tired today.
    Juliejim have fun dog looking!!!:D
    pooh I am sure you will be the tower of strength that DS1 needs - but be sure to relax a bit too (((hugs))) hope the pup's sore head is mending xx
    AJ what a pain - just what you dont need - do you have 'noise patrols'? they often respond quicker.
    pigpen Yes a calm chat with the vicar is required to put the records straight and a follow up letter to his Bishop - he is the sort of vicar that is driving people away from the church.
    sockdrawer try to have a nice time - hope its not as bad as you expect (((hugs)))

    having a slow start this morning only done my dailies and put a washing out so need to move myself
    tootsxx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last
