    Morning all.

    Wow, atb - well done! :j:j:j:T:T:T

    Yesterday I achieved all that I had planned, but only minimal flying done between everything else.

    Today the snow has nearly all gone and the sun is shining in a bright blue sky. It's the last day of term for our group - and an end to the Ethics module which has been "not very helpful" (understatement of the year? - most of us agree we know less now than when we started). Just the essay left to write in the Easter hols, and then only one more term to go.

    Today's plan:
    - online banking
    - FUPA aired washing
    - hang up yesterday's washing to air
    - check return dates for college library books (loan times vary: 7 days or 4 weeks)
    - college prep
    - SW weigh-in :eek: not been good this week!
    - make 2 phonecalls
    - S&S kitchen plus anything else in Level 1
    - S&S bathroom plus anything else in Level 1
    - S&S ensuite plus anything else in Level 1
    - Tidy LR and our bedroom
    - Ignore RoD until after end of term :o
    - Cook lunch (meal at college is never very substantial, so we have our main meal at lunchtime on Tuesdays)
    - Walk Rosie
    - Go to college
    Better make another cuppa and get started!

    Hope everyone has a good day. (((Hugs))) spoons and sticks all round x

    Well done ATB!!

    Ionafan sorry to hear course not been useful. Your time is going quickly on the course.


    Been watching birds on the feeders whilst I work; they have really been going for it and seem to love the suet pellets. Whiz Whippet does too though and I often find him snuffling around on the grass underneath the feeders and chomping up the food that the birds dropped!

    Gong to have breakfast and sling a load in the WM. Z almost ready for school so that's good and have to chase S kicking and screaming into the shower ... boys eh!!

    Morning all. And so the day begins...

    Half-eaten rabbit on the back door step (thanks Mudger), half-eaten Easter Egg, reached through clever engineering and delicate balancing on dog bowl stand (thanks Tiny), retrieval of stocking filler toys following discovery of secreted bag (Tiny again), cardboard box remains cleared away (not sure which dog chewed that) and am now being presented with 'Operation' as a "fun thing to do" while trying to drink my cuppa back in bed.

    FML.

    Counselling appointment this morning then a long [STRIKE]boring[/STRIKE] enjoyable end of term assembly after lunch. Oh yes, and need to pack swimming and PE kits for the boys, iron Small's red hoodie, which is absolutely the only thing he can wear to the rescheduled (due to snow) Eisteddfod. Really? I mean, really?

    Gin o'clock by elevensies, I think...

    Well done ATB :T:T
    I hope you feel better soon Lynne.
    Dizzy - squishy hugs.

    A slow start to the morning as DH is away, builders not back until tomorrow, DD has a doctor's appointment this morning, then it is as full a day as I can fit in at paid stuff after dropping her off at school. On the plus side, school is open today, as are the roads.

    morning :wave:

    Well done atb :T:T

    I've lost 1 lb this week and am on target to lose my first stone by Easter. :D

    Woke up with the gremlins attacking, but thought about atb, YL, LW and Dizzy battling their gremlins too; and I did try to smile Madamoiselle, but it felt more of a rictus grin - but I imagined if anyone saw me lying there in the dark with this awful grin on my face, and I had to laugh :D So it worked, in a roundabout way!

    Paid stuff today - so I've had a shower, washed my hair, got dressed, made the bed and had breakfast. I'll feed the birds before I go, but flying will have to be a bumble tonight.

    Hope everyone has a good day. Get well soon hugs to the poorlies.

    Oh Pigpen, this did make me smile - sorry and all that!! They can be intimidating but I don't think our Breggey will bring forth the demons from Hell - she's an :A x

    So was Satan!

    Everyone kicked out to various places
    2x WM
    1x TD
    DW emptied.. I will load it when I've slurped my cuppa
    Kitchen swept.. I had weeto's sticking to my socks... that is just unacceptable!
    DD3's room jiggled to allow electrician to sort the new socket.. hopefully he will turn up today!... he did apologise for not turning up Friday eventually.
    DD3's washing mounded up on the landing to come down next time someone goes up there.

    Twinkle is being more of a turd today.. but OH is here to witness it and is getting stroppy with her.. completely pointless as that just makes her worse. I think she is hungry again and refusing to eat.. again! She is wearing her coat in the house again, not because it is cold today though.
