    Hester - sorry you had a night of dozing rather than sleep. End of term is in sight.
    JackieG - keep the white stuff! We have none here but further out there is plenty! Sorry you have the lurgy. Don't do too much.
    Off out with dogs in a minute. have made a list of things to do today and hav a few ticked but they are v small tasks. Ah well. It will all get done.

    Think I will do my supermarket shop tomorrow instead of Sunday. Will rummage about and make room in the freezer for a beef joint as Scotmid have theirs half price and their beef is usually good.

    Sorry, I haven't yet caught up with the thread, so (((HUGS)))'n'stuff wherever they're needed.

    Just wanted to pop in and let you know I may not be posting on the Daily for a bit - nothing you lovely folks have done, I'm just not really up to it, and don't want to feel obliged to force myself to be sociable iyswim. Um.... that's probably not very well put, but my head's a shed at the mo, so I hope you understand.:o

    I can't type it all out again; if you wish, please check out Post #372 on Page 19 of this week's Flylady thread.

    I'll be back, hopefully soon.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    LameWolf- hugs & spoons to you and Mr Lame Wolf,I'm so sorry.You must try and take it easy though I know its hard.I hope you'll come back and join us when you are able.

    I'm going out in a minute to see Auntie at the Nursing home,thought I'd better go while I can,weatherwise.
    Using some bits from the freezer to make a bit of space,thought I'd better use the turkey carcass in there as I'll soon have another one.Its not from last Christmas,I got it after Easter when they were selling them off.Anyway soup done with some celery I found in there,and some manky carrots and onions.

    Lowesy - thats brilliant news :beer:(oops,sorry you can't have booze!:))I'm really pleased for you both,very exciting :j:j:j

    Right,better be off.Take care all.x

    Hope your feeling better jackie g--and the white stuff isnt sticking?!
    İts raining here so i cant see myself getting to the gym because i ride a motorbike!-the wife and i might pop to the TV shop to view the model i have decided we will purchase--more debt! i dont think i am getting the idea of this os business--i can see myself ending up in DFW for the new year!-my rational is that we dont go to the cinema or go out much so a decent tv will add to the pleasure of life greatly!--we dont smoke or drink either so there isnt much pleasure!!--we are very happy snuggled up on the his and her's sofas infront of tv of a night though!

    Hi everyone,

    Lowesy, that's brilliant news, like the others have said it's made my day.

    Apart from that not a lot to report. I've spent the morning shortlisting for my replacement - only just 3 and a half months to go now, I can't wait.

    Weather here is very wet but the wind is cold.

    I had a horrible dream last night that I had head lice and woke with a very itchy head. I dug out the fine tooth comb from when the children were young but thankfully I couldn't find any!

    I know that feeling - ours came from Warrington, Gateshead, Leeds, Glasgow and Stockport, due to not being in stock, and DH's travels with work!

    Am on my 2nd attempt at bailey's fudge. First lot didn't set and my parents ate it spread over rich tea biccies LOL Anyone know how long it takes to get to the 2nd stage? (where you can drop it into a glass of water and it forms a ball??)

    Feel pants, back aching from having to sit around with DD, chest feels sore. We both had a nap this morning, had to give DD some drugs though since getting up. I can see Christmas looming with ailing kids at this rate :( Rain stopped but it's gone VERY grey. Will this be the sleet I wonder??

    Lamewolf - Hugs and spoons for you. Look after yourself xx

    afternoon!

    just got back early from work - got roped in to do a waking night tonight - 10pm till 7am!:eek: but I dont mind as it means I get tomorrow off so get a long weekend off:T

    Just had a quick tidy and swept the floors, going to have a nap later.
    Also going to Morrisons when we pick up DS from work to do some shopping - went in there with work this morning and it was hectic to say the least! Going to redeem my £30 off voucher.

    I'm off to have a catch up now - hope everyone's well x
    Do what you love :happyhear
