    Natty (((HUGS))) sweetie; 'tis the final act of love you can do for Jet. Peaceful Journey vibes for him; my beloved Penny will be there to welcome him. x

    I have been more than a little washed-out today; Mr LW wanted to see the latest Star Trek movie, so we went yesterday - a trip to the cinema always exhausts me beyond belief (you wouldn't think sitting in a wheelchair looking at a screen for a couple of hours could be so tiring, but it is!)

    Fidget has been fed and walked however; and pizza had been made for tonight's dins, also a loaf in the BM, so the vital stuff has been done.

    Got Mr LW's pal coming over this evening (to meet Fidget) so if I'm awol tomorrow, it'll be because I'm exhausted, nowt more serious than that. ;)

    Natty Ozzie sends a big lick. I'm sure you will have made the right decision for him.

    LW what did you think of the film? I'm an Original Series Trekky and the new Spock is just NOT right!

    Evening all. A bit late in I know - thanks for the list. Just the dailies getting done here at the moment as I'm back to the paid stuff.

    LW and Iona and anyone else, hope you're both feeling well rested and better soon.

    YSL? or maybe ATB? I'll be up for a Yorkshire meet.

    Natty - sorry to hear about Jet. Big hug from me.

    Hopefully, I'll get a chance to pop in tomorrow.

    Hope you don't mind me jumping on board, I'm a long time lurker...

    I'm on konmari my house, but doing it fast, as I split from my kid's dad and he moves out in 6 weeks, we spilt last year... so it's being very hard living in the same house, especially as he doesn't clean and won't get rid of stuff...

    Anyway, my house has boxes all over, so I need to keep on top of the cleaning as it's is a mess... as I emptied the attic to sort, so will start with baby steps with you all, if that's okay xx

    Morning all,

    Slept fitfully last night so feeling a bit bleurgh today. Just having a cuppa in bed whilst I come round, then I'll feed and dress the smalls. DS nursery day today, and DD and I have a long list of jobs, top of which is going to the Disney store so she can spend some birthday money :)

    Won't see DH today as I need to go to a meeting with grandma at 6pm so f-I-l will babysit whilst I do that. No doubt by the time I get home DH will be in bed after his long drive back.

    Big big hugs and energy coping vibes all round, as Dizzy said it seems we all have a lot going on, yet still we plod on with smiles on our faces supporting each other, it's such a wonderful corner of the internet here :)

    Best slurp this cuppa, have lovely days all xx

    ETA Anyone who is up for a Yorkshire meet please PM me, I'll get some dates together then xx
    MFW :)

    Just having a cuppa in bed and ignored the phone as it was DH, probably with a list of stuff for me to do today. As expected yesterday, on his day off to help me recuperate, he slept in, ignoring warring small boys, picked plums as I'd stropped off to Tesco with both boys, unbrushed hair and no make-up (he ate too many and got the trots *snigger*) then went off to play golf with his cousin. Pah! Who needs a little TLC after a small operation anyway!? So, usual daily scramble ensued and I'm afraid to say I was a bit short with my lovely Mrs NDN, when she tried to stop me for a chat, so I'll take some plums round to apologise later.

    Gentle pottering planned today as chesticles are throbbing.

    Morning all.

    Hugs Natty it's hard to say goodbye to a family member (which is what Jet was) you did the right thing for him

    Hugs for you too Dizzy - men really are from Mars! Mine would have been exactly the same. Can't sit still for a minute unless of course I have a job list for him!!

    Welcome Matody

    Off to find my list (beware big post coming up)
