Morning all
Off walking early this morning so Ill get on with the flying in a bit, I'll get the WM on before I go but rain is forecast.
Jazee hope your DS is okThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Thanks all for your kind remarks. DS is really quite unwell at the moment and has had to give up his last year at college as he's missed so much. He can do the final year at a later date though. Hopefully we'll have a proper diagnosis in the next week and the doctors can start to make him better. Nothing has worked so far. It's just a worry.
Ok, so I have:
Dusted bedroom
Hoovered and swept through house
2nd lot of four wash loads in WM, stuff done is drying on line
Walked dogs
Put recycling out
Off to take a peek at the grout and seals before the paid stuff.
Catch up later.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Jazee Hope your DS gets a diagnosis and is on the mend soon.
DH is still off work as he still keep being sick.
I'm searching for car insurance quotes.0 -
Jazee - hope they find out whats wrong with your son and get it sorted quickly xxx
Well, i have fallen behind AGAIN. Yesterday I was mum sitting, theres nothing wrong with her really, but a few strokes in succession has left her confused at times and she has nearly flooded the kitchen and turned the gas on without igniting it, so she cannot be left on her own. So running to catch up. Just downing a coffee to wake me as im so tired for some reason and i will crack on. Happy flying everyone.

Hugs to jazee and mumofjust2
well day one here of holiday (from work, not going anywhere) and already the kids have had 2 fights and I can see another brewing. I've told them no swimming if they aren't being nice. And I mean it, lol. I'm not going out in the cold to faff about getting them both changed and then just sit on the step in half an inch of water lol. Not if they are being horrible to boot!
Anyway, I've emptied DW, made bolognese for lunch, done one wash and hung up, tidied my cleaning baskets (so I now know what I have and don't need to buy!) and helped DS build a mega train track.
Will strip all the beds today and collect some unused toys for the sale next month. And have another look at my extras list.
Extras:
Put curtain rails up x 2 (next week, as need to do when kids out)
Finish Scrapbook
Swap photo's upstairs
Clean bathroom light, need to take cover off (done and smashed to pieces, !!!!!!!)
