Evening all.
After a busy week with sickness and work, I feel miles behind you busy lot. Well done on your progress xx
Congrats on the exchange Ionafan
Fingers crossed for an easy night pigpen.
Came home from work to a house full of children - 3 different families. My best mate had been shopping and bought enough food for all of us, prepped and cooked it. Washed up. Made pudding. Took the kids to youth club. Bought a bottle of wine and stuck it in my fridge and has just been to collect the kids again. I swear she is an :A
She's just left, taking DD with her for a sleepover and will have her whilst I take DS to his football tournament tomorrow.
The only thing I've done since I got in is load up the car boot to go to the tip tomorrow enroute. Looking forward to sitting on a picnic blanket watching DS play and doing little else. It's been a very hard week. This sickness bug has floored me.
I'll keep popping in and hopefully will achieve much more over the weekend.
Have a lovely one ......

Evening everyone. :wave:
Well! DH got up before I left for my first appointment, put the kettle on, opened the cupboard door to get a teabag and checked the Flying list to see what he had to do today!!!:j:T:D
I had already vacuumed through, done a machine load of washing & hung it out and cleaned the study window whilst doing synchronising of learner files on the system but he still had a few things to do.
We won't be doing much tomorrow although I will do the ironing first thing. I have a fasting bloodtest at 11.30 as part of the Focus on Mothers 3 at ALSPAC, then a DEXA Scan, BP, pQCT, memory tests, hand grips, chair rises, balance tasks, 3D whole body scan (nasty - shows all the wobbly bits!) and a motion sensor to wear for 7 days. DH is going to his favourite motorbike shop to meet with his friend and have a cooked breakfast as they have a cafe. When he comes to collect me, we're going to the P & R then to College Green for the Feed the 5K event, meet DD & family, and just had a call from DB to say he's going with his family too! Should be a lovely day.
