Forgot to say thanks to Dusty for the list yesterday - and welcome to all the new babies!
Job looks ok for now (well as ok as any local govt job can be these days), it was an 'error' apparently - well that's ok then!
Got quite a bit done yesterday and today's list looks good BUT I have a full Governor's meeting this evening so I'll have to see what I can get done.
Nice weather forecast today - enjoy it everyone!:j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

I was a real lazy moo yesterday - took DS2 to see the Olympic torch after work/school (only out of the house for just over an hour) and made tea for me and the boys, then spent the rest of the evening doing not very much at all.
Must try harder. At least I did some of the LR list at the weekend, so it shouldn't be too bad.

Thank you dusty for the lists, and juliejim for last week xx
The house is pit-like, DS is here all the time and making mess :mad: Today I am going off to work and leaving it all - he can hoover, load the DW and clear the kitchen. It had better be done when I get home. Although I am going out for 'one drink' after work to celebrate a colleague's birthday so I may not care a fig when I get in :cool:
I hope everyone is well, healing vibes for those in need. Oh, and a virtual kick up the backside for you, witchy
