    Sorry to hear about the job :( I'm sure something better will be on the horizon before you know it, keep positive, and good luck with the deal hunting :) xx

    Found out today that dd's school pta are running an Easter fair with stalls this year. So, ever the optimist, I have requested a table :D. Easter. Bunnies. Sales?

    Dd is a bit delicate at the mo, poor mite. And I am so unwell that dh has said that he will take dd to school tomorrow, do the shopping and other chores. Am looking forward to my list for him...:rotfl:.

    So the only thing I must do, apart from lie in, is see the dentist for a check up.

    And get well enough to go to work for 4 hours on sat plus 2+ hours of travelling.

    3/3 nsd thus far :D.

    My James Bond costume went down well today. Many of the older pupils came as Muggles !

    Off to bed now.

    Thank you. My best time of day recently is a few mins after I wake up, when blow my nose. The feeling of relief doesn't last long, but it sure is special!!

    Dentist gave me the all clear - yay!

    Finished off the cutting out I started the other night. Now have 4 sets of bunny parts.

    The table is confirmed at the fair - it seems that I'll be the only one!!!!!! So, no pressure then... Must ponder pricing. But definitely bunnies (and maybe a few lavender bags...)

    Dh is making lunch and Ihave to choose between omelette and scrambled egg. It is a tough choice to have to make!

    Finished off 6 lavender bags and had a peruse through my tone finnager book. I may do some geese. May not.

    But I am making some knitted 'creme egg cosies'! And I'll buy plenty of creme eggs to use, displaying them in some of our 12-egg egg boxes. I'm sure that many people have done this, but am feeling inspired by the idea! Will sell them as egg+ cosy.

    I have an early start in the morning, as have to be at sch ready to be hospitable, welcoming and fully awake and coherent by 8.45. Going on the bus means leaving here by 7.30 as I'm still quite weak, so the initial walk may take longer than usual. I'll probably need to be up by 6.45 - time for the coffee to brew is a requirement...

    Best get off to nodland soon then. If only dd would hurry up and fall asleep...
