Hi All

I'm still here, not too great but coping .. latest scan showed more growth, not what I was hoping for but not much I can do about it ... as pigpen says I am moving in 2 weeks ... not my wish to move, but needs must.

I can't do much physically anymore & I was gutted not to have enough 'spoons' to go to sexy's wedding reception .. I had been looking forward to that for months. Thanks for always being there honey xx

On the subject of Diva her loss doesn't get any easier to bear .. I am in touch with her DH most days .. he is very supportive.
Tris & I are very close .. I spoke to him about an hour ago .. he is up & down healthwise ..

Evening flypeople

This morning our little kitty decided to come with us on the school run, she tried to go in to the school. Kiddies chased her and I was worried she would get lost. I tried to pick her up but she ran under a fence on to the school field so I decided to go home. She was waiting at home about 2.30pm. When I picked up DS2 at home time I discovered she had spent the day at school in the playground waiting for DS2 and playing with him at playtime & lunch. It is like a Enid Blyton story. I may have to create a children's book about her antics.

Dailies done and a few hot spots. I am aiming to stay in during the day tomorrow to get on top of the tip. Have brought some plants in as a frost is forecast.

She had it out on the bus when we went into town, but put it back in her bag:cool:

We had gone to TGI Fridays for lunch.

Someone had handed it in thankfully:T:T:T:T

Made up a quick fruit salad (pineapple, strawberries, pineapple & coconut juice and kiwi) for DD to have for breakfast, cleaned up the counter and realised that I had nothing else that I needed to do.

So I am slightly surprised to find myself in bed again at this ridiculously early time. The two splats with the common sense to be in at the time I dropped the stinky blobs of meat in their bowls are both snoring and obviously can't quite believe their luck. The dirty stopout went AWOL just before dinner and minion has strict instructions to open the door if she hears him, although if all else fails, he can get into the greenhouse if he needs somewhere to sleep tonight.


I am, however, thinking that as long as I actually wake up at a reasonable time in the morning, I could put up with this - after all, there is iPlayer if I feel the need to shout at the telly occasionally (now Masterchef has finished, there has to be something to focus my sarcasm upon).

It doesn't feel right to need to go to bed so early, though.

mamaninie

nope still haven't mopped

did a bit on my assignment and snuggled watching telly with DH which is time well spent these days

will do a bit better tomorrow hopefully, I'm just very , very tired today. Stressful one tomorrow though - the course I've organised is starting, I'm hoping to leave Emmy with a friend for the morning and bore JOseph to tears coming to the course with me to sort any teething probs out - before whizzing back up on the bus to get Emmy and whizzing back down again to sort any issues arising at the end of the session. I'm hoping at least 8 will turn up - maybe more - who knows! Then I'm off to stafford in the evening for my tutorial and then on a long day on thursday. I'm going to be absolutely cream crackered by the end of the week! Friday I have a day off with kids in nursery as I'm working on sunday, and I will be frantically making little sis's wedding cake and finishing the quilt which will be her pressie.
