    Overwhelmed. Our very good friend's niece has been very,very poorly over the last week or so, had been transferred to London and was given the news late last week that she needed a heart transplant urgently. They are all devastated.

    Unbelievably, friend has just called to say that she has a new healthy heart waiting for her and she's going to theatre right now. Thank God to the poor family who have lost someone precious this weekend who were brave enough to give this little girl a chance. :A

    We watch and hope.

    If you haven't already done it, would you think about adding this to your list today, please ladies?

    Thats a bittersweet story. I have registered just now although i think i may have done it years ago but at least i know for sure its done now. It is so important as is giving blood. I unfortunately can't due to a blood transfusion but without somebody who did myself and my DD2 wouldn't be here to tell the tale.
    Love to all in need.
    On the flying front.......HHC at 10am anyone??!!:)

    It's difficult to have a no shoes policy here as Moon has to go out the back (through the kitchen to the garage) to chop up the wood, and then has to walk back through to put the wood inside in the basket.

    We're the same - DH (and the rest of us) has a pair of indoor shoes by the back door, which he slips on when he brings in the wood :D

    Well I've hoovered the whole of the downstairs, up the stairs, and the landing again with my hoover and it's looking much better now. I've also hoovered off the dining room table (covered in crumbs) and the cat's sofa (a small footstool that he doesn't seem to use much any more but still gets dusty). Have cuddled cat (he's scared of the hoover), and sat down for a breather. Will check the WM in a minute to see how long it has left before sorting out which load will go in next.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    :eek::p;)

    Good job I can report back that the landing is looking better (just don't look on our bed!) Need to repack the sleeping bags in a vacuum bag, this one seems to have developed a leak. BTW the stuff on the bed is stuff awaiting transfer to the loft (the Christmas bits I missed)

    Starting another HHC NOW, join if you can.
