MMM great news your OH is homeDusty your weather must be better than ours as our cricket was rained off last night (although ds 2 is away at scout camp so wasn't playing anyway) and today's weather wasn't much better
BunBun it stayed dry here all day, very windy all morning and not warm or sunny but ok.
Kazwookie glad to hear your AGS is back to his normal self
DS3 is not well this evening, didn't feel good at the end of cricket, didn't want dinner and has now spiked a temperature and is shaking. I have just read to him so hope he has dropped off but I foresee a broken night's sleep.
DW on and WW set.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

So basically done very little. Did stay longer at paid stuff than usual. Had to spend time with dds finding the floor of their bedroom (it was there when I left for work this morning but had gone by 4.30):mad: then had to help them get all the face paint off them (it was not confined to faces).
Not to worry, will catch up tomorrow honest.
MMM glad your OH is home, take care of yourself as well as him x
Night all x0 -
MMM so pleased DH is home. I can't remember what he was having done, but Mr N is still a stone underweight and tires easily after a major op in December. It can be hard when the progress is slow, so hugs to you both.
Not sure how much flying I have done today.
Went to zumba.
Had hideous passport photo taken and all now somewhere in Special Delivery.
Emptied dishwasher.
Finished complicated report.
Got paperwork and tests ready for tomorrow's assessment.
Chatted to mum and brother on phone.
Cooked dinner.
Picked up a few clothes from bedroom.
Filled in uni pay claim form and ready to post.
Made a list and got about half way through.
Researched freezers as ours is playing up. Cheapskates we bought a non frost free one a couple of years ago and regretted it. It constantly has lots of ice, and as a result of me being rough trying to pull the drawers open, 2 of them are broken.
Tomorrow I'm hoping to do Body Pump and Body Attack, then have an assessment to do pm. One more report outstanding (until tomorrow when there will be 2Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0 -

Morning all. Not sure that I'll get anything other than dailies done before the paid stuff today as I thought I'd have a quick preview of what awaits me email-wise.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all
DS3 as predicted was very disturbed in the night, hallucinations (sp) and in my bed so sleep was limited. he is still asleep now and feels cooler so I'm hoping he will be ok to be at home wtih DS2 whilst I go to the paid stuff.
WM1 finished so I'll put that out in a minute and WM2 will be done in an hour so that can go out too. I think that will be the sum of flying as after work my NND the rabbi has invited me to their 3 year old's birthday celebration (first time they cut his hair)at the synagog.
Have a good day flyers.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Morning all :wave:
Welcome home to your DH, MMM. Hope he makes a good, steady recovery, and that you can relax a bit now - it was good to see you posting a much shorter list :T
How is your DS3 this morning, Dusty? Hope he is over the worst now. Your invite to the synagogue for the 3-yo's birthday sounds really interesting!
Glad to hear that your AGS is now well and back at school, Kaz.
My list for today, bearing in mind that I've got to get the study-bedroom sorted as per my agreement with HB:
- Check finances
- Finish resource box (hoping to get this done before 10:00):
CD-ROM x3
Story cards and envelopes
Flags
Pairs jigsaw
Packing and returns
Map board
Hem cloths
Checklist
- Filing, general tidying and cleaning in study, including windows
- Make up bed
- Defrost freezers and wipe out fridges while they're almost empty
- Deliver items to CS
- Deliver birthday card
- Food shopping
- Email DS1 re Monday's meal
- Text DDiL1 re DGD2's birthday party and present
- Download photos and forward
- Source garden pump fountain head
- Phone or email a friend
- Finish phone diary and birthday list (only Nov and Dec to do now) - probably in front of the TV this evening
Mostly little bits, but they all take time! And DH is at home all day, still rearranging his man cave, so there doubtless will be lots of interruptions, but also plenty of coffee to keep me going :j
See you later - hope everyone has a good day. Keep cheering us on, CY! (((Hugs))), spoons and sticks all round, as needed x0 -
