    Morning everyone,
    I wrote a post last night and then it got lost, so gave up and went to bed..
    I hope everyone that was feeling low yesterday feels better today.

    I wrote myself a list last night and I'm slowly working my way through it this morning. I feel much more organised with a list I can physically cross off. I also think if I try to get as much done this morning, then I can relax this afternoon cause I'm feeling so tired come lunch time at the moment.
    Hopefully getting through my list will also help me not feel so miserable..! Heres hoping!!

    Have a good day everyone...

    Tia - thanks for the stardrops info! I read on the other thread that it takes out blood stains too - might be useful for those of you who have a bone fetish although, I don't want to know where the blood came from or how it got there.....! :)

    there is nothing wrong with a bone in bed :T

    I, of course, said no! At least he was enthusiastic!
