busy day (at work, despite it being half-term!!) got lots done except I've 'lost' a file with all my assessment stuff in, I had it last week so it can't be far away...I will find it!!!

apart from that I have lots to do around the house...need to go get weighed then I'll be back!!!

Goodintentions

We are back! I didn't spot you, Skinty. the baby must have been asleep
Managed to get the plumbing bit for the kitchen sink - they assure me it will fit a 10 year old sink (they are slightly different now). Also got some cheap kiddies plates & bowls, some drawing paper & 2 boxes. Saw the bed that DD2 wants - she will have to wait until DH gets a job though

At least 'dinner' was cheap. Hotdog, chips & a drink X4 for £6.40!!

DH needs to do some DIY plumbing in the morning - this could be interesting. A plumber he aint!! :eek:

We went to Frinton today. So warm and sunny. My face feels tight - the sun had some bite! The sea air knocked the kids out and they slept the hour in the car going home. DH is very quiet, he's on holiday this week but spends up to 2 hours a day answering emails. We've been discussing holidays all day and can't agree on anything.

Flying has been minimal. I'm working tomorrow so will leave a lust for DH and the boys to get on with.

Dusty I'm so pleased to hear of Ed's progress, thanks for the update.

Pegs - some of you need to get out more.....

Evening

Not much done as the hospital were running an hour and 20 mins so it was nearly 6 before we got back so have only done tea and then gone over some emails for tomorrow and worked out some figures that we can use to present our case.

DH's consultant really has no idea what the strange appearance on his gall bladder is or whether it has been ther since childhood and it was prob a nasty bug he had. However he has to go in for an endoscopy on 4th March, not really sure what it will achieve but I guess theyre exploring all avenues. Thanks for asking Dusty x Hope your DH FIL will be ok.

Will update my list when I get on to big computer so until then.............

Not as much laundry with Ds1 away.
