Congratulations Mumto5 and hope you have a good holiday Bossymoo!
Best day of the week then! Have decided (probably) to visit my mum tomorrow - 140 miles away so not a quick trip. I'm leaving it until the last minute to tell her, otherwise she tries to 'organise me' - 'well if you get here at such and such a time, you can go and visit so-and-so, and I can invite this and that relative over so you will have to stay longer to see them' - I HATE IT!!!! The trump card now is the dogs - I'm not leaving them for that period of time (about 8 - 10 hours) so they are coming with us. Dogs are not allowed in her flats so it will be drive there, stretch their legs in the nearby country park, collect her for lunch at a local dog friendly pub (DH has emailed and checked!) then take her back home. My sister and partner should be coming too, so it should be a good day! I've not told mum yet that we are going - it will give her time to 'organise' everyone! A call after 9 tonight should be ok.
Should be able to get some of the list done - I suspect the beneficiary of my efforts will be the spare room - it needs a good sorting out!
Oh well, one load in the machine and another in the TD - let's hope there's no thunderstorms today and the weather brightens up a bit! Have a good day everyone!:j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

Morning All
Neveah - glad your first day back went well.
Mumto5 - congratulations - knew they'd realise how brill you are!
Bossymoo - have a fabulous time!
Vanilla - hugs
Mummyof5 - have a great weekend.
AF has arrived and with it a headache so I haven't done anything this morning. Mum and dad's for tea tonight and I need to go over to the Scout shop so I'll do an hour before I go over to my mum's and see how much I can get done. Beavers went well last night so I was pleased with that and DD went to Scouts and enjoyed that - she's just moving up from Cubs. Other than that not a lot to report apart from the fact that I'm shattered!
Have a good day all
Hugs

Morning,
I did do the bathroom yesterday, just never had time to post.
Today's room will be DD(18) she is going away for the weekend, so I will get in there and do a bit of shoveling. That will be my Friday night taken care off. Working today first though... better get dressed.
Have a good day0 -
Morning all
With have blue sky and sun here, not forcast to last though.

Shower now.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Morning all, managed very little yesterday and then had the spring concert last night. Both my boys made me very proud and made me realise i am so very lucky to have them.
I didn't have the best nights sleep so today will be slow but i have the joiner coming tonight and i'm away shopping tomorrow with DD, my mum and my sister so i best get some flying done today.
I still have that awful feeling.. I've spoken to OH about my concerns and thats all i can really do. Some will remember what happened last year with OH and i just have the feeling that something awful is coming my way, i don't know if it's gonna be OH going through another big relapse with his mental health (he's not great at the minute) or it's just going to be something like last year and blow the whole family apart. Sorry i'm going on again, i just have such a gut churning feeling..:(
Mumto5 big congrats on the new job. :T
Bossymoo have a great holiday.
Valli well done on the ebay sales.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.:j :j0 -
Thanks Girls, your support means such a lot.
Got up at 6 and did 2 x HHI.
Off to my SIL to play with her Sage Line 50 programme to give me a head start for Monday.
Not enough hours in the day! Need to go to MrT, finish off Nearly Mew pricing up and go to A Moonwalk fundraiser tonight.
Have a good day my lovelies!0 -
congrats Mumto5 on the new job.
Slowly back into routine here.
DD2 still worrying me - she has never really picked up after the stomach bug in February - I had hoped that 2 weeks off at Easter would recharge her batteries but she's back to running on empty.
GP appt booked for her - Thursday next week - was the earliest appt I could get - and I booked on Tuesday!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
