    Evening! This week has just flown by! My course was brilliant but intense and I'm still trying to get my head around everything we did in the 3 days.

    Flying has been minimal but at least there's only one more week until half term - I must aim to do all the lists (and more :o) over the holidays.

    Love and hugs to all and special prayers for Toots, L-L and LW xx

    God I've been so behind this week it's awful. I keep forgetting to my meds (PND) so I think that has something to do with it :( I promise to try harder this week!
