    Your good weather vibes worked. The rain stopped 10mins before DS1's car turned up so we managed a few photos outside. Although the back garden was still too wet.

    I have to leave to collect him soon. Hope he can find me.

    I would post a photo but not sure how to.

    bossy, have you tried making up the word b-e-d with your little moos's letter cards and showing them how the b and d make the head and foot of the bed? You can do something similar with d-i-p where the piggy dips his foot in the water

    That's genius :T thank you!

    Been out for a meal tonight with my support group friends. Had a lovely time, and six new members out tonight. Some very recently bereaved. It's not as morbid as it sounds, we did have lots of laughs, but I could have cried for one poor man - his wife died just 3 months ago, they have a 2yo and a 20wk old baby. Just breaks your heart. I don't know how he managed to get himself dressed let alone out to socialise with virtual strangers. There is nothing so resilient as the human spirit, was quite humbling :o

    I am thankful I only had 2 beers :beer: as my mum has not stayed over so no doubt some small person will try to climb on my headin the morning. I have sneaked a little smoochy kiss on each of my snoozing babes :A they were stood on my bedroom windowsill waving when I left :D

    Right, will finish my :coffee: then nighty night for me.

    Away with the fairies :beer:

    Please check in by the end of June with an update. Gold/silver/bronze stars will be awarded as appropriate.

    Hi there Brigadier Bonnie! Another of the '10' checking in!! I've been AWOL since last week as we've had workmen, visitors, illness and generally a really busy time - which is no excuse, I know!

    I promise to post regularly again and will 'see' you all later today (hugs to all that need them) and I'm sure there are more night owls like me out there - hi late night/early morning flyladies. R x

    Morning all. Banging headache this morning and a shopping trip planned with DD. the two don't go together well. Just doing some financial juggling as no doubt I will be paying for lunch and then need to clean the fridge.



    Have a great day everyone..

    I am risen... but not yet shining... more coffee required ;)

    Glad the proms went well. DD has hers on Wednesday.

    Rowan tree - great to 'see' you, I always think "Come on Tim!" when I'm watching Wimbledon :cool: You can have a gold star too x

    Glad you had a good time last night bossy & hope you got some sleep skinty.

    Today I have to find a home for my [STRIKE]abandoned !!!![/STRIKE] carefully deposited belongings in DS's room as he's back home for the summer :j I can't believe his first year is over already! I think I will need black sacks, I feel a mega fling coming on.

    Hope everyone has a good day!
