Morning all,
Busy day yesterday, coupled with traffic queues both in and out of work, which is unusual unless there is an accident or the dreaded temporary traffic lights. It was a beautiful drive though through the middle of the forest.
It's work again this morning, as the school where I work at job 2 finishes 2 days earlier than DD's school, so I'm juggling it all about a bit. I hope to be back at lunchtime, then I have an errand to run, then - finally- maybe a flutter about.
On the plus side, the towels are washing atm, and there is no ironing pile. Bonus.0 -
Fluttering along here slowly but just about keeping my head above water. Half term here which means more work than ever as have holiday courses both morning and afternoon everyday, still it will be nice come payday. DD1 home so nice to see her and catch up a bit, OH away all week so once DD1 goes back this evening it will be very quiet, wether that means I get some flying done remains to be seen.
Time for a second cup of tea before I go off to work0 -
Morning all.
In bed with a coffee HAVING JUST PUT THE LAST OF THE WASHING IN THE WM!
Forecast is for bright and breezy so I.m hoping to get it all line dried.
Various admin jobs, almost all of which are frog-shaped, to do today.
Will S&S kitchen.

Evening all.
Had to take a long detour to my course as the police had closed the road. Only for another accident occur on the diversion. Luckily I didn’t get lost even though I was sure of the route. Course was relaxing and useful.

Hi all
Reasonably rotten day at work, made a big mistake and I'm kicking my own backside about it :mad:
Heating man has been I've now got hot water and heating :T
DD is just about to leave for dancing so I'll get a bit of flying done while she's away, packed lunches first as I slept in this morning which meant the both of us having take away food today :mad:
Off to grab a list!Morning all.

Busy busy day here too:
- finished my assignment
- weighed in at SW - am 0.5 lb out of my target range :mad: (probably caused by the large piece of battered haddock I ate at the Old Wives' fish'n'chips meal last night) but I think I was actually about 3 lb over this time last week so I've clawed some back
- WMx1 done and TD'd
- lunch made: half of Sunday's leftover soup, a mushroom omelette and salad bits
- ran the first session of a study course, which went very well
- had my mentor read my assignment: his only comment was "I like it"
- went to a team meeting which lasted half an hour longer than I had hoped, so...
- had to put the tea on to cook as soon as I got home and then...
- take Rosie out in the gathering gloom
- and finally fed myself and DH and saw him off to model railway club (his friend has given him a lift so that I can have the evening off)
I just need to send a couple of emails, then I'll go and put my feet up and watch GBBO.
(((Hugs))) to all in need xx0 -
