Well yesterday didn't see much done except taking DD1 to have her braces fitted. She is coping quite well, but chewing is going to be a challenge!

I did manage to get some ironing done though ( didn't make much of a dent in the mountain though!)

Today I have work and a brief trip into town and lots of tidying to do here.

This week in the UK is ME Awareness Week - ( ME is also known as CFS - Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and some of you may be aware that DD1 is a sufferer - she's been ill for 6.5 years. To raise awareness this year she has written a poem about her life with ME which is on her blog -if anyone is interested the link is here:-

http://thatsizgirl.blogspot.co.uk/

It is a very poerful poem!

If you are interested please read it and feel free to share it with other people - the more people read it the more we canhelp raise awareness!

Thank you!

Morning all. Very dull day here today. I achieved absolutely nothing in the way of flying yesterday as the paid stuff took over. Just about managed to supply a chilli dinner in the slow cooker. Didn't even wash up, so have just spent an hour catching up with that. Back to the paid stuff already, so will see what I can manage later when I finish. House not looking too bad though as regular flying really does pay off, so thanks for the lists and inspiration.

Well I need a foot up my derriere today.. I just want to crawl into bed and sleep.. so not like me to be this dead on my feet.

OH and Squeak away swimming later so I might go to bed with Dot until school run time.. though she isn't up yet lazy little lump.

4 baskets of laundry to catch up on which should be fun unless the sun pokes its head through the clouds today.. it was torrential here yesterday so is very soggy out there.

I must do a spot of shifting in my room and I have the baby washing to put away.. 2 full loads of theirs.. and a WM full! Then I can ring about the window quote.

Those with decking.. is £600 (3m x 3.7) for the decking and a 6.5m fence a huge amount? OH seems to think it is a good idea and I am keen to let him have a project to keep him busy so I don't mine I just refuse to pay a lot!

Morning all

CY I enjoyed your DDs poem

Working out my invigilation time table with DS1 and DS2's exams, governors meetings, cricket matches, who is taking DS3 to and from school each day - it's like a military operation.

Just going to mop the floor and then head to the shower and then to the town. See you all later.

Well I'm feeling a bit better today, the pain isn't quite so bad although I'm really wobbly on my legs. Today OH has college, so I am home alone. I am probably going to do a little bit of 'Flying' that I can do whilst perched on my stool. I'm not going to bust a gut as 'Flying' has shown me I don't need to.

Have a good day everyone and be nice to yourselves xx

The plan is ticking along...
