    Good morning all, ds2 off school most of last week with a nasty cough and temperature. Sent him in school Friday for them to call me to pick him up an hour later :( Today his tummy hurts and still coughing but eating ok so am sending him in as his school report said his attendance is "a cause for concern" He only ever has time off when he is poorly but he is often poorly :( Hate sending him in when I think he's not right.

    Oh having a hard time at work, his boss is nit picking at him. He's been there 5 years but lately they are picking up on every little thing. He has Ulcerative Colitis and has recently been told he has arthritis brought on by it. Stress can cause a flare up and I do worry about him. He messaged this morning as he is expecting grief off his boss today and he had to abandon the car at a garage at 5.30am due to a flat tyre and walk the rest of the way. Feel like telling him to stick 2 fingers up to his boss and walk, he wouldn't as he couldn't cope being out of work.

    Hopefully the week can only get better.

    Must have Someone fell out of the loft.Enterprise?

    Hope they are ok and get checked out if they are still sore

    Yes, it was, I remember now. This is the kind of thing that happens to me though. I've fallen down stairs several times and come close to falling out of the loft but thankfully it's never happened :D Hope you are ok Enterprise xx
    I don't think so. For one I don't have a treadmill, and the other point is I was looking in the loft yesterday and the steps and me parted company and I ended up flat on my back on the landing, massive bruise on my arm, even bigger one in my bum and another where my thigh hit the newel post :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: It was bad enough going for a walk today :eek:

    Good morning everybody, I hope you are well and have a fabulous day.

    Happy shopping.

    FC, I hope you are ok. I know this has been a very difficult decision to make. I hope you are getting support as well.
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    Good morning all, another cloudy day here.



    My heart goes out to you FC, this was not a decision you arrived at lightly and must be one of the hardest ones you have ever made. You have supported him through thick and thin but it really must be awful for the kids to wonder what they will find in the morning, I just hope your way forward is a lot easier than the road that you have left behind.

    Hear hear :T

    Sometimes in life, the right thing hing to do is almost the hardest thing to do :( thinking of you lots x

    Yep, that was me :rotfl::rotfl:

    I am fine, bruises are all out and starting to improve :D I have done similar more than once, usually due to over-enthusiasm :D

    I can't see it lasting, but might be worth a punt...

    Not all of them, there are still some showing on 2/£2
    Carex Odour Defence Handwash (250ml)
    1
    ASDA £1.78 any 2 for £2.00

    4 in total showing as MB, and some don't compare well either, so be careful

    Off to collect a C&C at 12... (Post midday MSM results) Will go in and test then, results at est 3pm although I'm sure someone will beat me to it.

    FC my thoughts are with you, I think you're a very, very brave & strong woman.

    On the discussion of HMRC, It's not if they'll catch you now... it's when... Becoming self employed isn't hard, if I can do it anyone can. :rotfl: There's also a number of benefits to becoming self employed, so don't think of it as a negative. :o
