    Happy Mothers Day, and big hugs for everyone.

    Miss Hoodie had her 1st trip out today with the young carers group, they went to Waterworld, she came back a different girl, she absolutely loved it, the confidence that she eluded was amazing, she'd been sldies, flumes, in a jacazzui, in the waves. I had a tear, as thinking shes growing up so fast, but also daft part in me that I can't do those things with her.

    But have been good and tided up my craft stuff, now in one box and bag, all sorted so when Miss hoodie has her friends up, they can make some cards or pictures, my "blue peter" box. xx

    Happy mothers day!!!

    Mum2one that sounds great for misshoodie, as for not being able to do those things with her just think of all you do do. I am fully able bodied but that place would be my worst nightmare, I can't swim or stand water splashing my face so I wouldn't take mine. lol

    The craft box however sound like the best thing ever the girls will love it!!!!!

    Evening all, I have been busy doing reviews still. Wrote out 4 new ones yesterday ready to go on, been putting 3 a day on C this week and 1 a day on DY. Got over the 20,000 on there today but cant redeem until the points have gone from pending. Had a £10 voucher from VO and claimed a £5 one from MyS, then just checked T and found I could claim another £15 one on there too so back to two owing again as just got one from them yesterday.

    Hi all, just popping in to show my face. Feeling a little better this week although work is still pretty awful.
    I sold a few items on fb last week which was good - have joined a couple of bingo sites, but havent won ANYTHING!!!!!
    I know a couple of MSE'ers have been lucky, which was great news!
    You certainly get the bug for playing don't you, but it is so frustrating when you only need one!!!
