Had 2 sessions of loft clearing this week so we seem to be making progress. Some of it was bricks from chimney we removing though which nearly killed me off. Too hot today to do anything other than basics and catch up with bedding washing. Had normal smear test result back but result from open uni due in next couple of weeks so hope I pass that tooHave a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T0

Hi all. Hugs bossy and its true that most of us have a lot more to be thankful for than we realise. Been out today with some family so nothing else done other than a bit of laundry. Will catch up tomorrow.0

Back from neighbours house, many chuckles had, plus a good burger, some kind of chilli beef kofta and a few buds (hic). Agreed to do again when their kitchen is finished and we are all back from holidays. Just 7 days and I'll be there!
Just arrived home in time for the heavens to open :T
Kids rooms look marvellous. Wonder how long they'll stay that way
Debating whether to pop to Mr A or not tomorrow. Fridge is bare but freezer has plenty. We are not wanting much hot food, though.
Might go for a browse and see if there's anything I fancy.
Hope you have a super day tomorrow, pigpen
Enjoy the rest of your evening!

Morning!
After Friday nights sleep fest, I woke at 5:15 this morning, tsk. Feel ok though, as wasn't in bed late (due to a bit of alcohol) so must have had my fill.
Just having a cuppa in bed. Crikey it was warm here, but rained loads in the night. Air much fresher this morning, so I have all the windows open.
My plan today is ironing. I'm getting the airer out, and will hang our holiday bits on there (did I mention my holiday, lol) ready to pack later in the week. I know it will crease anyway, but I don't want them in piles until Friday.
DS friend said to me last night "I'm coming to play at your house when schools finished" lol bless him. Last week they told us that on Friday, nursery and reception kids need to be out by 1pm, as they are demolishing their building the next day :eek: the poor teaching staff have to get everything they want to move to the new site into the hall that night!
So I'm collecting DS early, and his little pal, to save mum or dad coming out of work for the afternoon. It's good for us too, as they can all play in the garden while I finish packing, and my kids will tire out and be ready for an early night: tea at 4, bath by 5, bed by 6!!! I just know DS will not sleep in the car, nor on the plane...
I'm excited! Gutted I still have 3 (hectic) days at workBossymoo
