    if anyone could spare some posi-vibes in the direction of DD2's AS Level English Language exam this afternoon (1.30 - 3.30) I would much appreciate it!

    This is the subject she struggles most with - but revision seems to have sorted a lot out for her - what she needs is a good paper that she can really 'get her teeth into'!

    What I don't want is to have to restart AS Levels inSeptember......

    Off to put some washing out and the next load in....

    Morning all.

    Thanks piggers and toots. House looks so much better after weekend blitz. Yay for kitchen. Not too bad already so it won't take long.

    Bounced out of bed at 0630. Dog walked, WM on, DW emptied and filled. Then got home to find DH's windscreen cracked so will be waiting for repair all day. Grrr.

    Hoping to get lots of frogs eaten today - but its looking very grey and rainy. Not ideal.

    ETA: Positive AS vibes all round

    Vibes for the right questions for cyclingyorkie's DD2 and a smooth day for xx_Jo_xx

    Right - off to be polite to the poor 'person at desk' in the Council Tax office.
    Well, up to the point that a 'telephone interview' gets mentioned.

    Good Morning all

    Well as I told you last week I was doing far to much and juggling life I have since decided to hand my notice in at work as this is the biggest issue as I start at tea time. I have picked up 2 cleaning jobs a couple of hours 2 days per week. I shall be finishing at the end of the month so as from next month life will be far easier.

    I don't think I will be working for the next day or so though as I pulled my back out Friday and its still aching like mad now. Thats the good news.

    On Friday on OH's way home from work some woman smashed into the back of his car and now its not drivable, not a happy bunny it is the 2nd smash in 5 weeks, none his fault car a complete wreck!!! Luckily he is OK other than being a bit stiff so now down to one car so it looks like i am on first class walking....:eek:

    I now have to figure out what a frog list is and put in a load of washing.

    Dailies
    1. Vacuum Downstairs,
    2. S & S Bathroom
    3. Make Beds
    4. [STRIKE]Packed Lunches x 4[/STRIKE]
    5. Ironing

    #####~~~~~~Vibes~~~~~##### for AS English.

    I better get cracking hairdresser is here at 11am

    happy flying ladies x
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?

    Morning all; will be back late Saturday so I send:

    Packing and unpacking good vibes
    Furfles to fluffies
    Good vibes for those involved in exams (it isn't the end of the world if it all goes pearshaped)

    Spoons, hugs and sticks (for the pesky black dogs) are by the back door.

    Happiness and health to all and plant friendly rain where it is most needed. Preferably during the night, ta:D

    Oh, more stuff decluttered at record and book fair: 2 more empty 32 litre boxes...:j

    And it might help if I did some packing... for me and Hangover Boy attached to the sofa in the living room (at least he has finally caught up with Doctor Who)
