Morning All

Things are not good at home, problems with the kids, still not speaking to DH and so I'm not sleeping properly. Oh well, not a lot I can do!

Piggers - Happy Birthday to your DS - coping vibes for you.
Dusty - hope your mum's ok.

Going to do some ironing in a min and that'll probably be about it.

Have a good day all

Hugs

Morning all
Hugs and good wishes to all who need them - sounds like lots of us.

Rubies have you tried ringing round local car scrap yards about the lights you need? There could be some there. We needed a wing mirror once and got one reeally cheap.

Watched the bucket list last night, so another one that can now leave the house.
Texted step mum, going over there at weekend, plan to also see my mum need to ring her today then I can sort all the stuff out I'm offloading on her,- books, DVDs, and some candle wax bits for my sister as well as mums day stuff and nieces birthday pressies. Should clear a fair bit.

Just seen an ad in this mornings paper tesc0 are doing the £1.50 Easter eggs for buy one get two free HTH

Hugs all round by the sounds of it, I hope things improve for you all who are having problems.

MrsMP that Easter egg thing sounds good, might get some in for OH's grandkids, at that price it would be silly not to.

Daily stuff done
Birds fed
Cat fed
work now, laters xx

Morning all

Starting with the bit of ironing I have as no shirt for DS3 this morning and putting WM on.

Can't decide if i want to go to yoga this morning, not in the mood but the cricket shop is just up the road and I need gifts for DS1 for Saturday.

House is looking quite good after the effort I made yesterday. Looks like a good drying day so I'll strip the last bed and put WM1 on the line.

Lynne Happy Anniversary

Bossy sleep vibes

JJ I hope things improve soon at home x

Morning everyone - had a quick read back a few pages -

Pigpen - Happy Birthday to DS


Dusty - thoughts with you and your Mum and hope her Drs get the medication sorted quickly for her heart. My late Mum and my Aunt both had/have heart failure so it can be treated - sometimes takes a while to get them on the best medication. It is great she has such a lovely neighbour.


LJK - Happy anniversary and Happy early retirement.


JJ thoughts with you.


Bossy hope your children sleep through tonight - so you can too. x


Just been eyeing, beaking, head stuffing and ribboning two out of the twelve chicks I have made so far - only took me an hour!!! Hope it gets quicker or else these will be ready for next Easter!! Have taken a photo so if I can find out how will post later.


Off to ch shop shift this morning then the lawn is being moss treated this afternoon and I'll be doing a couple more chicks. Aim to take them in first thing Saturday morning - well that's the plan anyway!


Have a great day everyone. "Hope" to get some flying done later!

Morning all :wave:

Welcome back, Lame Wolf :j

Belated happy anniversary and a very happy retirement to lynnejk.

Hope things improve soon, juliejim.

Big (((hugs))) to Bossy. Trouble is, it seems never-ending doesn't it? I had a similar problem with my DS3 but he grew out of it eventually, and this phase will pass for your DS too.

We went out last night to a brilliant theatre performance No sign of new grandchild yet...

Today I need to
- declutter bathroom c-o-d: it's full of old bandages and other bits of first aid stuff as well as about 20 rubber ducks, our wash bags, a seldom-used hair dryer (my hair is strimmed on no.5 all over!) and several bags of cotton wool which will surely be of more use to my DDiL for the new baby than to us
- update spreadsheet and notes
- 3 "business" emails
- check payment to charity's ISP
- start up bargain magazine subscription (bought from @m@z0n Local Deals) for DGS1+2 instead of buying them Easter eggs
- replace toothbrushes
- dust and hoover upstairs
- shopping at @ld1 and T€sc0/s@insbugs
- visit my friend
- choir practice this evening

Hope my GUAG hangs around long enough today to get all that done. Shower and breakfast first then I need to make a determined start with the desk work.

Catch you all later. Hope everyone has a good day x

Trying to decide if to dress up today, I've camped near the kitchen window to see if the kids walk by in costume. None of the other lunchtime staff dress up but I have for the last couple of years. I forgot to get a news letter last week and haven't heard it mentioned at all, will look a bit of a fool wandering around the playground in full mock Tudor ensemble (I probs will anyway but there is safety in numbers)
Cooked DS2 veggie bacon and mushroom omelette for breakfast as he missed tea last night, he just came home and had taken himself to bed by 4.30 I had to wake him at 7.30 this morning for school. He said he's ok just tired.
Going to cull a load of the card games today and hopefully have the table cleared by tonight
