    LJ, I hope you are ok. :(

    There is always something bright...even if you have to look VERY hard for it or can't see it at the time.


    I've got LOADS done this morning. House looks ok, the animals were done early, a run to the farm supplies store.....

    edit: just spoke to DH who the office s thrilled to see...so much so they are putting on a flight to Italy today...

    Had forgotten the rush of these last minute flights, pulling on a suit grabbing the office overnight bag. Seems like AGES since they happened in such a rush...

    Doesn't sound too good LJ....Hope you are ok.

    Right, back in again...I feel like a jack in a box with all my ins and outs this morning! Not much to report apart from it's busy busy at the moment and I feel like I am chasing my bottom all the time (well it is big enough!) :rotfl:

    Next stop, study...got a TMA due in on Wednesday...think I will have a cup of tea first though and dry out a little.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Dark clouds are (metaphorically) gathering in jellyland. Hoping for some of michaels silver linings to appear...

    I don't know if other counties do this, but Hertfordshire has an online highway fault reporting system on their website. It seems to work really well, I reported our nearest street light not working on friday and there is a man on a cherry picker outside now.

    No gravy on the menu, it's very very rare to even ever see it.

    This was a small Cornish fishing harbour chippy ... no gravy.
