    I've never heard of that breed before; have fun! Whiz is currently crashed out in front of the woodburner looking as happy as a pig in clover, bless him. These Whippets know the best places to crash for sure.

    Evening all!

    I am safely in my hotel room up North after fun times with trains due to major flooding near Rugby! Can't fly tonight but am doing some course research as assignment deadline is not so far away:eek:

    pigpen - glad to hear Moomin's op went well and she is recovering; feel free to slap OH from me :p hope he's been better today x

    CY - thinking of you x

    LW - I'd never heard of a Griffon either so G00gl3d; they look very cute x

    Mumof2 - you're sounding much chirpier lately; well done you and long may it continue x

    Thanks Froddington - I'm feeling much chirpier now. I'm discovering that the real me has been hiding in the shadow of someone with low self esteem, depression and various other MH issues. Gradually I'm rediscovering myself and it's great! I'm not perfect but do you know what, I'm doing OK; time to focus on what I have achieved rather than what I haven't. All this business with J really took it out of me but through all of it I stayed strong; I'd have been in my rights to fling my stuff in a bag and leg it to Cornwall with the kids but I kept going and really glad I did. Not saying I won't get bad days but I can cope more now than I ever dreamed possible x

    Hi everyone, hope you're all ok.
    I've been to work, did my basics and I'm concentrating on sorting my paperwork out at the minute, it does kinda work, there is some organisation there, I can usually find what I need, but some of it is a mess and there's so much off it, I'm hoping to be able to do a lot of recycling & condense it.

    LW - I'd never heard of a Griffon either so G00gl3d; they look very cute x
    neither had I so I googled it too! I agree very cute!!!
    YL- we had chilli tonight too. Yum!!

    Ds1 is ok. A 2cm gash in his head which has been glued! No physical activity and no getting it wet! That will be a challenge. That will teach him for swinging back on his chair! Although slightly miffed that he got told off and got moved down the 'golden ladder' without being given a warning. Apparently they didn't realise what he had done until after they had told him off! He is more upset about that than the hospital trip! He is normally a good boy and it was a bit of a shock to be told off and 'moved down'.

    Left to do tomorrow...

    Nursery- sort out clothes!

    Wednesday - Living room, Hallway, Stairs
    Vacuum floors and sofas
    Change any lightbulbs that need doing!
    Vacuum hall and stairs.. all the way up to the top!!!!!
    Extras
    Clean out your handbag.. how many receipts??

    Morning all. I have read thread but not retained much other than moomin's op, lil miss frizzle gaining and dog coats...
    Hope you're ok cycling and things going in the right direction.
    Got some mojo from somewhere and did a clear out of my work bag last night after being at work until half six then going food tasting. Quill ion was there too.
    today I have marking, must get petrol and I want to clear the cupboard under the sink. I have thrown the shoe polishing rags as I have yellow dusters I will repurpose as they aren't being used for dusting since I bought my mf glove with noodles.
    Have a good day all
