  • Had a really nice day - well, afternoon, as I wouldn't have been able to manage a full day. Himself completely changed his expression once we got onto the beach, grinning and laughing. Took things slowly, but he's eaten tons today, including a massive burger from a posh restaurant, homemade pizza when we got back - and a cream cake.

    I'm feeling as though I've had a mini facelift, thanks to a brief period of strong sunshine, but am almost falling asleep here.

    Freezer delivery Day - so after that's come, it's off to a large supermarket to fill it up.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

  • Another 'no fly day' here. 4 hours worth of train travel and a day of meetings will be it. Some work catch up on the train to be done and the ebook reader is fully charged for the journey home.
    I've hung up (inside just in case) the few bits of washing that was sulking round yesterday. And I'm about to do a quick sweep round the house making sure all is well for hubby's return later as he'll be in before me.

    Fly well all.
    Wish.

    Well done Dancemum's DS1

    The Valligirl has her degree result - a 2.1; she has a BSc!

    So proud of her as she has worked hard for this.

    Well done to your DS1 Dancemum, sorry to hear DS2 still not good. Huge hugs for you xx

    Well done Valligirl!

    DS had a nightmare so came and slept with me last night. Got up at 6am, and have had a shower and washed my hair, hurrah! Also S&S the bathroom.

    Kiddies are dressed and eating brekkie, I've unloaded the DW and the WM is on. More volunteering today, and the dog needs a long walk. Both kids have clubs tonight so it's our later night.

    Have fab days all xxx

    Well done to the grown up Flybabies who are successfully getting their degrees.:T:T

    ((Hugs)) to all those struggling to manage the changed needs of aging parents.

    I didn't manage to post yesterday after work, so the tablet is having a sulk. I'm hoping it behaves and doesn't lose this post.

    I didn't get a lot done yesterday besides the dailies. I did drag DH to the allotment when he got home to pick our first strawberries and broad beans. Exercise for him (but don't tell him) and food to be eaten, so a win all round.

    It's the usual busy Wednesday here tooing and froing, but achieving very little. As I seem to be (*whispers* insert the forbidden F word here) miserably on the slinky challenge, I am trying to talk myself into getting some exercise. The trouble is that I can think of a million and one things that I need to do instead, and that suddenly seem to be attractive to do :o.

    First of all it is the school run and small shop (to make up for all the huge ones I seem to have done lately). Have a good day all, and I'll be back later.

    Huge congratulations to Danceson1 and Valligirl on their degrees!

    Got to get my bum in gear today as I didn't do much yesterday due to worry over "everything". I've talked to DH about it and we've agreed a way forward on some of the issues, so I'm hoping that will help.

    I did do an impressive amount of ironing yesterday, which needs to be put away today ;)

    Happy hump day ladies xxx

    Well done to those who got their degrees and to their parents, feel proud of them and yourselves.

    Nothing done yesterday so need to crack on today.
    DW on
    WM on
    Dressed

    DD2 wants to go out this afternoon but I feel there is too much to do so she was very sulky last night, I also feel she doesn't realise that it all costs money and that the pot is not endless. I have just paid for a ferry ticket for her and filled her car with petrol. Enough of a moan, time to get on.

    See you all later
