  • I MADE IT! :beer::j:beer::j:beer::j:beer::j
    I felt fine once I got into work, and the day went reasonably quickly - I've just been out and about with dd at her new gymnastics class on Friday evening, which means that my day of nothing can go ahead as planned tomorrow.
    So sorry to hear so many people are poorly at the moment, or struggling or having a hard time. Love to Pace, Foxgloves, Ziggy, DNMS and anyone else who needs it :grouphug:
    I'm already in bed - quick catch up on here and then a good night's sleep I hope. DH got his appointments all done and out of the way so I reckon he'll sleep better tonight.
    Pleased to hear your DH is going to be around to help next week Bob, and legomum - your valentines meal sounds lush.
