    Wow ladies you've all done so well today - (little green eyed)
    I feel a bit of a fraud cos I did the kitchen thoroughly on Sunday so have done very little flying

    I have played, chatted, laughed and cuddled my DGD1 who is emigrating to Australia very soon ( then I really will need all your support please- don't kno how I'm gonna cope- but trying really hard to get my head round it. I am excited for them of course just selfish) Weve spent such a lot of time with DGD1 at least three days/ nights a week since she was born 31 months ago it's going to be "different".
    Will fly tomorrow and do meal plan then I'll be up to date:)
    Brill news about Fabian PP and Samuel must be a right chunky monkey already: Sorry your weekend didn't sound like much fun. You should have gone with Bossy she sounds like she's had great fun :-)
    Hugs, spoons and sticks to all who need them.
    Any news on Ed Dusty? Apologies if I've missed an update but I think of him and his family often.

    Hi Nanamia, I completely understand what you're going through. My OH wants to go to Oz in Sept to work for a year. I've explained I can't go because of work and family commitments but he's still certain he's going. I feel selfish for wanting him to stay, but at the same time I think he's selfish for going. :rotfl: Feel free to message me any time if you need to talk!
    Anchor yourself to the foundations of everything you love.

    Thank you to all those who post competitions!:beer:

    DP going to work slightly later at 8am so I'm making most of it laid on bed until pup kicks up his usual fuss. Pete goes to work at 7 usually so Diesel wakes at 6.55am before his alarm goes off, annoying at weekends if he's not going in

    Empty and refill DW
    Empty and refill WM - hopefully use airers, got no washing line until he finishes garden

    Text support worker see if someone can take DS2 tonight
    Get tea out of freezer

    Think that'll do :)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    This thread moves so fast - I can't keep up!

    I have no phone, keyboard or plants in the room but if I cross something off I feel a bit better like I've done something already :p I do have to sort out a "hotspot" in there though, so perhaps that makes up for it so it won't count as cheating ;)

    WIll finish my cuppa and breakie then get started slowly (everything is slowly at the minute, due to dizzy spells :o in turn due to growing a babba :D)
