    Well done Drea

    And LW - imagine that the flyladies and all your doggie visitors are with you... with that many of us you won't be able to see the outside world, although it may be a bit chaotic and the doggy leads may get tangled, but hopefully there won't be any fighting...

    Afternoon

    Still dull and cold. More washing hung round indoors. Cleaned all the bedrooms and vacuumed downstairs too. Walked to the park - two swans still there but only about 4 ducks, there were loads a few weeks ago.

    Back home and watched Alcatraz.


    Well done on getting the job Drea :) Hope the move went well embb :)LW, I'm thinking of you - there are many times when I really have to force myself outside, part of the reason I'm walking every day (hate it ;)). Dusty, how is DS3 today?

    Drea well done you

    Lamewolf good luck you can do it I believe you can x

    Polly he was in a slightly better mood last night (until DS1 pushed his buttons). Did not want to go to school this morning but is sort of resigned to it I think. DS2 has got an interview for the second 6th form he wants to go to (still waiting on hearing after interview at the other) so he will be pleased. I'll see if I can see him in school at lunchtime when I go down to work in a minute.

    Right quick drink, teeth brushing and off I go, see you all at about 4pm, somebody have the kettle on I'll be gasping for a cuppa then,

    Bathroom all done here, 4 loads of washing done including all boys bedding. Boys beds all remade and DS2 and 3 are now away for a wee snooze. :) DS2 seems much better today so should be back at school tomorrow.

    Right i better make a start on clearing the lunch stuff..

    Drea well done...:T:T:T:T
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    LW yes I suspect it would be a good thing, except I've only been back at work a month and already had time off for lo eye infection eek. They a being very understanding and I just don't want to push my luck...

    PP you are welcome to come and share, we are nice like that lol. Shall we have a chicken pox party. DS is only 3 and DD 18mths so I guess they should be quite mild. Although DD is at nursery, they said to bring her if she isn't spotty, if she's caught it she will have already spread it to her group yesterday. So DS is having a lovely time at home painting and playing with trains without his sister wrecking everything, lol.

    Not much flying happening though...

    Well done Drea!

    Bossy.. If I thought you lived close I'd be there already! DD is the same age as mine so they can wreck the joint together.. your DS would love it lol.. I knowloads seem to have had them recently but noone here! Most of mine have had them before they were 3.. though I guess you aren't that far... I'm the dull end of the M62 ;)

    Ninth Anniversary
    Hi all

    Reading and following but not posting much.

    Congrats to Drea on getting the job - you must be so pleased.

    I am very sad today as my little cat has died. She was very old and just went off to sleep.

    Katiecat:(
