    But what about DD? I can't send her in her swimmies! I was thinking gymnatics but she doesn't have a leotard and anyway she'd never manage going to the toilet. She has a tutu - would ballet class as a sport?

    Yes ballet counts! Failing that.. trackies!

    Just spent 3 hours in A&E with Moomin who they suspect has a fractured wrist on one of the millions of tiny wrist bones so is in a splint and we are at fracture clinic on Friday! ..

    I am absolutely exhausted.. my left foot is completely numb and both feet are really swollen and my hips are agony.. scabby wooden chairs!!!

    I came in.. put food in the oven and forced DD2 to make a cuppa.

    I just want to go to bed!

    Healing vibes for the piggies and msgnomey

    Kiddies in bed, just decluttered some soup - someone is playing guitar in their garden! It's quite nice actually!

    In the office tomorrow and Wednesday so might be a bit quiet from this corner of the world. We have a work experience guy in, there are 3 of us so how come they are taking him for an hour each and I'm doing the rest of the day??? So they are losing 1 hour out of 35 each and I am losing 5 hours out of 24! I will spend some time with him, but might need to give him a little job and send him back to the core team for computer access to do it, as we are all laptop users, so no spare desktops. Plus I have some commercially sensitive stuff to deal with tomorrow, not to be shared.

    Moan over!

    [Strike]Got a few toys to pick up, will sort my stair basket (again) and get lunch and bags ready for morning. [/Strike]Then I'm going for a shower and might paint my nails! And try not to eat anything else. I seem to have put a pound on overnight :o

    Have we heard from LW this week? Does she have doggie visitors?

    I believe she has 2 moulting friends who require brushing and garden supervision.
