    Was going to hoover through downstairs, but DH has blocked the hoover :( I will get him to sort it out when he gets back in from work in the morning, as it is blocked with polystyrene!

    Going to pick the dog up from the vets at 6.15 and have a chat about what's next. It was x-rays today, so we should know what we are dealing with now.

    Day 2 of WW today, so chicken stir fry tonight for me. I think the kids want McDs!! (which is on the way home from the vets)

    Not much flying today as I seem to have been playing taxi instead! Emptied the hoover and cleaned the filters (before DH used it! :mad:) and managed to source a carpet remnant to put down in the kitchen so the dog doesn't keep slipping over & dislocating his knee again. When I get back from the vets, it is cook dinner for me and more studying.

    Happy Birthday to your DS

    Poor thing, try not to worry too much, can you plan to have his favourite things for when he comes home?
    We have his Christmas presents waiting for him. And have planned a weekend away with all the family together if he gets home in time for a slightly cheaper weekend i.e. not an Easter holiday weekend.

    Done the basics today plus wm x 1 and hung to dry. Been working at home and quite busy so not much else done till kids home, then they wanted snacks and we finally tidied the conservatory, was paper everywhere! Now recycled.
    Had a last whizz round so everything clear, bags and clothes ready for morning, and I'm in bed now. Sooo tired it's been a long day.
    Bereavement counselling tomorrow so will probably feel a bit deflated later...
