Cyclingyorkie Whoops sorry misread that.
Well I hope your OH gets better soon (Kinda glad it's not a littlie with a nasty "baddy"

He told you there's something he's not told you? :eek: Yikes! Big hugs that cant be easy.

Right I MUST get on with me list. Having the dog park on your lap is not a good excuse not to

Morning everyone!

Cycling - your poor DH! Is he a right handed bowler? If so he will probably be as useless as I have been these past 5 weeks. I offer you a huge helping of patience as you will have to do everything (try doing up a zip with one hand)

Natty - Vertigo - how horrible! Take care sweetie x

lil me - Happy birthday to your DS

Maxonion - hope you are feeling rested and better this morning.

DS3 has the temp/throat/chucking up lurgy now. We have been up since 4.30. He is asleep on the kitchen sofa. I'm going to get dressed in a minute.

I've strained my knee. I've walked too far this last week (Friday 8 miles, Sunday 8 miles, Tuesday 11 miles). I can rest it today as my NN is taking DD2 to school. My walking partner's physiotherapist DH thinks it's a muscle (diagnosed in the playground through jeans;)) and says it's not going to get better while I am walking. Big problem as I still can't drive and school runs alone are 2 miles a day!:(

I'm back to see the private consultant tonight. I hope he will confirm a date for my op as it's making it very difficult to plan DH's 50'th celebrations.

Morning all,

My visiting spider is BACK! Must have something to tell me / show me... Or likes my bathtub in the nice warm bathroom much nicer than the cold garden :beer:
Or maybe he's looking for a lady spider - maybe this time I'll relocate him to the garage, I'm sure I've seen a big old female wolf spider in there and it wont be so cold :j

Nooo.... then they'll just make more baby spiders :eek:

Mudbath

Cycling yorkie - ouch! and hugs for you for the 'something he hasn't told you'
Lil_me - hope things are ok with you xx

I've got an unexpected day off so I'm taking stripes for a very, very long walk this morning. Then I'm going to come back and do a list or two. The aim is to finish by lunchtime and then read all afternoon - bliss!

Hope you're all having a good day xx

Mumto5, sorry to hear about your knee, poor you. Can some of the other school mums/neighbours help you out so you can rest it? I bet if you ask people will be happy to help out. It'll never get better if you've still got to go all that way to school.

Cyclingyorkie, hope DH gets home today and isn't in too much pain. Hmm, wonder what he hasn't told you - you must be intrigued!

Happy birthday to Lil_Me's DS2!!!!

Off to get casserole into SC for tea tonight and then off to a church coffee morning for mums and kids; I've just started going and am really enjoying meeting other mums. See you this afternoon!

Morning all,

Just put a load in the WM - tis freezing out there! We actually had a little bit of snow here this morning!

Have texted LadyL this morning as I hadn't heard from her for a bit - she's ok, and says to say hello to everyone from her.

I'm working this afternoon in a reception class (not my favourite year-group, as I'm not specifically trained in Early Years teaching), but haven't had a call for work this morning. It's annoying though, as the reception class don't start back after lunch until 1.20pm, so there would've been plenty of time to get from another school in the morning. Never mind, at least it's some work, and that's the main thing (since the budget cuts, a lot of schools have stopped using agency staff to supply as they are too expensive, and have been covering internally with teaching assistants ).

Hope everyone is well.
