    Ha ha Mrs Moneypenny you made me chuckle but please keep Mr MP away from writing the list:)

    Well done Dustys boy:)

    BossyMoo you are an inspiration to us all. I so admire you courage and strength and will be thinking of you tomorrow. Sending hugs and coping vibes:)

    Almost Thursday and I'm keeping up, even with my mini helpers (think they've enjoyed themselves with dusters, clothes and bowls of water) Feeling a little pleased with myself.
    Thank you so much for your help I'm sticking with it:)

    Hi All :hello:

    Just a wee update, not much done tonight as I have my wee niece on a Wed, did manage HHI & HHme time (doing day 3 of my 30-day shred) HHI tomorrow will mean my basket will be empty :D:D:D, Sunday iron-a-thon did not bode well with the old farmer giles :o.

    I never got to speak to boss today as I emailed HR at 8am re: company policy if dependant is ill, no email back so will wait until I have this info before speaking to him :(

    :(Will update listy in the morning, OH nightshift which means broken sleep & early rise; so I can get ready for work before he comes in from work so as not to disturb him (22:00 - 06:00)

    Morning all

    Up early for me so I've emptied the DW and I'm catching up on yet more paperwork, I think that will be the theme for today with the pouring rain!

    Hugs all round.

    It's not raining here Dusty - well not at the moment anyway!

    WM is on and I'm just about to do a HHI. Beavers tonight so I'm going out about 4.30 so I shan't have time time to do much more than walk the dog, get changed and feed everyone. I'll be home around 7.30 though so I may have some time then unless I do my paperwork.

    Have a good day all - special thoughts for Bossymoo

    Hugs

    Dusty well done to your DS :T

    Happy Birthday FFP :bdaycake:
    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.
