    Big hugs to you Rufus - thinking of you.

    All's well here, just incredibly busy decluttering. I've kept so much stuff over the years and it's time for a clearout.

    Hi all

    Rufusdog - really sorry to hear your news, no wonder you're feeling down. Hope your daughter is ok - such a horrible thing to happen.

    Mrs M - your son sounds really determined - should see him well in the future. 100% attendance at school was only ever a pipe dream for me (too fickle/wimpy) but I was always in awe of those who made it.

    Kitchenbunny - love the attitude - no iron = no ironing - good for you:D
    It's the most wonderful timeof the year :

    Happy Mothers Day - hope you all have a good day, and take care.

    Sods law Miss Hoodie come down with cold and chesty, so shes staying up with me for a bit, on her computer, (normally find, but sods law - my computer won't download music), so this afternoon while she was out uploaded all the cds and plan was to upload 2ngt, Nanny hoodie can this way choose what music she wants on!!

    I've put The Soliders DVD on the fireplace so 1st thing she see, - but penny to a £1 she wont watch it as shes not sure how the DVD player works!!

    Bar that a quiet weekend planned xxx

    Have a nice day Mum2one and everyone else. I am going round my daughters place to help YD look after the grandchildren while ED is at work. She will be home about 4 then we can do something altogether.

    Had rubbish craft fair, only took fiver and stall was more than that. Opened another online shop last night, this one with Etsy, so might get a few sales through that if I am lucky which I don't seem to be at the moment.

    Hope everyone has a lovely Mothering Sunday or just Sunday. :) Hope things pick up for you soon rufusdog.

    Still haven't succumbed to buying a new iron yet - the pile is still small but there's another load on. Oh well!

    We went to a friend's birthday party last night and had a great time. The only problem was it was in a remote town and the roads to get there weren't in great condition and Mr KB wasn't being overly helpful in giving directions to get back (he drove there, I drove back. Next time I'll try and have a drink!) In any case, the party was great fun, with all of us adults playing pass the parcel and pin the tail on the donkey! Next birthday is later in March, so I'll dig out a special card for that and then there's nothing until the beginning of April, I think.

    Have a good day, all.
