    Ds1 has passed his competency test so can continue as a pool lifeguard this summer.....

    Ds2 had a positive parents' evening. They are hoping to teach him in class instead of on his own this year.

    Both brilliant pieces of news :T I:T I hope that takes some of the pressure off you, dancemum -you deserve a break.

    Hi all

    Oh LW I am so glad to hear from you, I have missed you and your tales of your doggie companions. Please dont feel under any pressure to post regularly - we just want to know you are OK.

    A regular day here, lots of paid stuff, bits of flying, roast dinner made for tea. Soon to bed.

    Wow - feels like ages since I last posted. RL is insane (as am I now) and the hours fly by with what feels like very little progress forward.

    Glad to hear from you LW. I've missed the doggy tales! Get well soon x

    Totally shattered but brain on overdrive so sleep might not be easy. I resorted to a Zombie-clone tablet the other night, which didn't really help but knocked sideways come the morning. I actually found myself walking along with my eyes closed as I was so drowsy.

    Sticks, spoons, congratulations etc. to all in need and or deserving...

    Morning all

    Hugs, sticks, spoons & vibes to all

    My head feels foggy, I'm full of cold and I'm really tired. Flying is being put on hold while I do more paid stuff. I'm determined to get all the admin done by Tuesday which includes scanning in about 3 years worth of paperwork to make room for this years paperwork. Time consuming, but just 6 months worth cleared a pile about 6" high so it's worth it ;)

    Off to make a start on today's scanning session, now I've caught up with other things. :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    WM on with dark stuff and that one will be bleached next..

    Twinkle upchucked all over herself and OH and has spent all morning gagging on wind and spittle, I am fairly certain she has reflux.. can we get a gp appointment to discus it.. no, of course not!

    Painted ceiling. Again. I absolutely refuse to do it any more, lol. If it's patchy, then so be it ;)
    Paint tray washed, filling done. Might paint walls again this aft.

    If I do it today, I'm giving myself the day off, tomorrow...

    Mum said there was a bit of a bunfight at @ldi this morning over school uniform lol, one woman put half the stock in her trolley, took it round the corner then sifted out what she wanted and left the rest on the floor :rotfl: honestly, what is wrong with people??? Lol. Could you be bothered?
