    Just popped in to send my love to AnWs Mum and of course A and W.... Thinking of you all.

    I see however that lots of flyladies need love, hugs, support, vibes, sticks and best wishes so am sending those to all in need as appropriate.

    Im sorry so many of you seem to be up against it at the minute or going through tough times. Im espcially sorry for those who have lost

  • Pigpen..so sorry to hear about OH's gran. Hugs for you all.

    Grateful...thinking of you all...sounds like so many people are going through some tough times at the moment.

    Helenjelly...It's hard enough to deal with things yourself but it breaks your heart that your children have to deal with it too doesn't it. DD1 is only just 8 too, like your DS and it really is the worse thing having to tell her about her Grandad's illness. Huge hugs for all of you. xx

    AnW'smum...thinking of you and A & W today.

    Hope you're feeling better soon Kazwookie & Natty.

    Lil'me...sounds like you need a hug too...sending some your way.

    In the way of flying I have been to Mr T's after DD1's gymnastics this morning then did another coat of paint in DD2's bedroom. Just about to check if a 3rd is required...hopefully not.

    Best go and declutter DD2 to bed.

    Have a good evening everyone.

    Evening all

    We have not been back too long but have had a good day. We had lunch first and then on to the panto which was good. Feel quite tired tonight though as we have been out of the house over 10 hours.

    W got a badge in swimming today so that was a really good present for Daddy to watch :D Because of being so busy racing round we have not been able to see DH but have got some flowers to take tomorrow after Sunday school.

    In typical AnW's fashion we have another busy day tomorrow, we are visiting my Aunt (an hours journey away) for lunch so it will be late afternoon before we get back home.

    Thanks so much for all the messages of support today especially, it is heartening to know that there are so many people thinking. Miss A is going to sign on with her own message to you all.

    I had better go and get us something to eat!

  • Well done Master W on your swimming badge...I'm sure Daddy was looking on very proud!

    DD2 in bed and fast asleep...2nd coat of paint on her bedroom has done the trick so we can get the bed over from my mum and dads tomorrow and she can go back in her own room. DD1 is relieved this is the last night of them sharing but I think DD2 will miss her big sis!

    DH on his way over with a fresh cream apple turnover courtesy of MIL so I'm off to put the kettle on and tuck DD1 in so I can enjoy it in peace!

    Night night.
  • Ironing almost conquered - all but the last little bits done! OH has 18 shirts ironed and in the wardrobe! Does any man need 18 white identical work shirts?

    Have reached the stage where things are coming out of the ironing box that people had forgotten they had!
    :jFlylady and proud of it:j
  • Then I shall play a whole bunch of Quo songs for him and you at full volume this afternoon, Miss A :D

    I will start with Whatever You Want, Caroline and Rockin' All Over The World.

    So, as you are out with your Nan, I shall be shaking the house for you all!
