Sending love and best wishes to you and the littlies. (((hugs))) XXI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy3 -
Popping in to say thank you for all the replies.
I hope you all had a lovely Xmas and New year and things are going well
Sorry I'm still really rubbish at logging on and haven't managed to keep up with diaries etc.
We are all just getting over Covid. So that's been interesting.
Will hopefully be able to be around more and catch up some
Take care x

Luckily all 3 of the children wasn't too bad. Eldest had the worst of it. Littlest was quite lucky (although she was already on antibiotics and steroids for a lingering infection from just before Xmas)

Good to hear you are all recovering, it's rife at the moment and you have done amazingly to have avoided it for so long, especially with older children at school.
Am I right in thinking your oldest is in secondary school now? How is he finding it?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Yes my oldest is into his 2nd year of high school years. He's had a few rough patches with bullies but we are getting there. Middle one starts high school this year to! It's scary how quickly time is going. Also how quick they are growing! He now towers over me
Hope everything is well with you, I will definitely be trying to catch up with diaries x
