    work tomorrow

    yuk

    Same goes for me. Although I'm sort of nervous and excited too! I actually really like the start of a fresh new shiny school year!

    I have done all my planning too! Just about to iron a couple of shirts for work.

    I'll be back on Thursday - keep safe and well.

  • I'm in again this week with a promise to do better...

    Big thanks to pigpen & toots

    Well done Jojo - how exciting!!

    Please add more special thoughts from me to that bag of yours for Tue LW

    Got a bit of pottering to do this evening, so things are in a reasonable state for the start of the week. Nothing too taxing though, it is Sunday after all :p

    Hugs, spoons, sticks and general lovely vibes to all.

    I'm in this week. I have to have this house ship shape by Sunday when we head to the airport hotel.

    Many thanks to Pigpen and Toots who do their best to keep us on the straight and narrow. Please fling mules at me if you feel I am cutting corners this week.

    JoJo - OMG what a result! Well done you clever lady! You so deserve something good. Hope Minion's crutches are beautiful after their decoration and let us know how you get on at the dr's appt, it's very easy to put your own needs aside when you are wrapped up in your kids buisness.

    We had a lovely time at the Lion King this afternoon. But I stupidly wore my suede sandals and it was pouring when I came out of the tube :(.

    Decluttering a glass of wine while we discuss buying DD1 a car:eek:
