    Hellooooo right back at ya lil_me!! xx

    Well (you always know when I start with 'well' that I have an excuse), the plan was to fly. Guess what....it's not happened yet. Had to take DD's guinea pig to the vet this morning which meant hospice swapped to the afternoon. Sadly, the gp had to be put down but DD had realised something was wrong really early so it hasn't suffered. I can't believe how sad I was about a guinea pig. I've spent an hour trying to dig a hole for funeral she'll be expecting later. It's really not happening with the ground frozen solid. Not sure how to get round that one.

    Going to pick dd up from afterschool sport at 430 so will fly until then. Not looking forward to telling her though at least she'll be happy that she insisted on staying up late last night to finish reading the book she'd been reading to it. Bless her.

    Right, i'm off to s/s before I start off again. Hugs to all xx

    Awww Mudders sorry to hear about the gp.:(

    I'm in this week, but it remains to be seen how much gets done. My thanks to FCC in any case.:)

    I've copied'n'pasted yesterday and today's lists; some items are already done, and some don't apply here, so that's a start.;)

    I'm desperately tired, decluttering copious amounts of coffee in an attempt to stay awake.

    Blokey came to service my mobility scooter this morning - I'd carefully arranged that for a day when Mr LW was going to be here, as I get 'orribly nervous dealing with anyone coming to the house if I'm on my own.

    Right, I'd better make an attempt to get off my bum and see what I can get done.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    I've been to town and got hubby's meds, flip the road are bad. Managed to get the library books back and a trip to argos (another pressie for DD got). :D

    My sister has been up most of the day and has barely looked at jobs and still hasn't told her hubby. She still say's she's not worried, so i give up. She's 25 now so it's her life but i did find out that she put me down as her employer for that stupid loan, i just hope that debt doesn't land at my door. :mad:

    Mudders sorry to hear about DD gp.

    Right back to painkillers and kitchen list, my mouth and nose is still flipping sore.:(
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
