YORKSHIRELASS

Hi all

I have been a bit awol this week, lots going on.

Like everyone says I really hope everything is OK with Pigpen. And hope CY is coping too, fingers crossed.

Hugs to poorly cats and bah to nasty Insurance Companies - oh and love and hugs to anyone in need.

We are away for the weekend, meeting up with family 150 miles away for a big birthday celebration. This has been booked since January, have been counting down the weeks. DS2 has woken up this morning with bad stomach ache and feels ill.

So do I keep him off school and still go later if he is feeling better??

Need to get ready for paid stuff.

Can't advise either way, we have a sickness bug, and chicken pox doing the rounds at the mo here. The sickness bug can come on quite quickly, from "Miss I don't feel well" to "can someone get a mop and bucket please" to a matter of minutes!

Hope you have a lovely weekend away and your ds soon starts feeling better

I mentioned messaging FFP on Twitter but reading back on here, she's away on her hols till Sunday so I don't expect I'll hear from her till then, her last post said she would be back on Sunday and come in to catch up on the thread. Hoping that whatever is keeping pigpen away isn't too serious and she'll be back with us once it's all sort out.

Feeling better than yesterday, which is a huge relief. Still taking it easy though.

Still fretting about Pigpen, she hasn't been on here since Wednesday night... so not like her...

Dancemum - have a great birthday, and hope life is more kind to you soon.

Afternoon all

Been to pilates. WM1 on the line, also washed DS1's duvet so that is on the line too. Plus ironing board covered has been washed and is just spinning in the WM - I love being able to get all this stuff washed and dried with ease.

Just having lunch then I'll do an hour's flying, too hot to be outside atm, I'll do a bit more in the gardne later when it is a touch cooler.
