Welcome to new-flypeeps

Been working hard the last few days, started on the garden too now the weather has warmed up a bit. Spent ages hacking honeysuckle off the trellis that blew down in the gales a while back. Now need to reattach the trellis and try to weave what's left of the honeysuckle back through it.

Almost finished delousing DD, I bought a Nitty Gritty comb from Boots on Friday as I wanted to get it over and done with as soon as poss, and having just checked the website, I've found that you can get it on prescription, which means that if you have little ones it's free, see this link:
Nitty gritty on prescription.

Happy flying everyone, think tomorrow should be fairly easy for me as I got the kitchen sparkly last week for its photo shoot.

I ask myself - why do I bother?
Darling DH, whom i love enormously, father of my children and provider of dosh for me to be very very very careful with, has just left for work with the parting shot 'Darling, perhaps you could be a little less efficient with the paper work? - I used to know where everything was'.
I clarify that in the 'used to' days the paperwork was littered around the house wherever he had opened it, complete with empty envelopes and was frequently at the mercy of DS1's writings and cuttings, and fast catching up, DS2's scribblings.

My DH and kids asked me into the second week of flying if I was okay.
My 16 yrs old son said: 'mom... you are scaring me. are you sure you are okay?" and my DH asked me if my computer was broken!!

Well at least it's a sign that they do notice the change!

I'm glad it isn't just my family! DH also had the nerve to ask if I was still taking my pills!!
