Oh Donna, big hugs coming your way xx
YL - how was your day? x
I hope Frizzle, BM and Dancemum are all ok x

Had a lovely afternoon with DS. He can be such a good boy when he wants to be lol! The ladies of the village always comment on how cute he is We nipped in to the local charity shop and I spotted some Fireman Sam bits so I will go back tomorrow and buy those to put away for Christmas. I could have bought them today but had managed a NSD and didnt want to ruin it I know, I'm a saddo.

It is very chilly here, we are all snuggled up in our dressing gowns.

Have lovely evenings all x

Hi all

Hugs Donna x

Thanks for the good wishes, the meeting I was worrying about was postponed - aaargh! I have already agreed a price with this contractor and he is now trying to negotiate which cant be done but I cant upset him because we are struggling to find anyone else to do the work. Ah well best not think about it now until we meet next week.

Tired. Two lots of paid stuff, dog walked, have dusted the LR and run the carpet sweeper around. Everyone is fed and the kitchen is tidy. Will put a load of washing in before bed but thats it for me for today.

ATypical that made me smile. My eldest (nearly 18) loved Fireman Sam and I am sure somewhere in the depths of his cupboard is his cuddly Fireman Sam that he absolutely adored.

See you all tomorrow x

dancemum

Morning all
Had a horrible nights sleep, I just couldn't settle. I'm I work all day today so will try and catch up with flying later. Need to grab another cuppa and rouse ds1- he's been advised sudocreme will help heal guitar wire cuts so has raided the first aid bag for that, luckily a small sample pot arrived about the same time as DGS

Hugs sincere good wishes and posi/coping vibes for all

Donna I hope you get good news from your cousin very soon.

Morning

Yesterday did not go as planned. Between falling asleep, having long orders to put through for work, then works website playing up, I didn't get to Mr A so I NEED to go today. I sent DD to the corner shop for bread while I swore lots at the website and she came back with milk loaf, which is so small its almost gone already. She also washed up most of the dishes (leaving just glass oven dishes and the like as she can't stack stuff very well in the drainer when it's full) and cleared the small ironing pile so at least something was done.
