    Just a quick hello as Im off to work soon.

    Pinkfairy Thanks for the advice. I have looked at her care plan. Because I work in care I know what to look at. Before she went there I checked out their inspection report and asked around. Mainly she is quite happy and they have lots of activities.

    Will be flyiing at work. I always have a feeling of dread going back after being on holiday. I wonder what Im going back to.

    Have a good flying day everyone.

Have a good one ladies, will ponder the list properly when I get home

    Morning everyone..
    Hugs to everyone, whether you need it or not.
    It's freezing here today and I'm out and about. I could do with sitting in front of a coal fire..except of course I didn't get around to ordering any!!
    I will have to do that first thing.
    I'm going to try and get the bathroom done before I go out otherwise it won't get done.
    Other than that, its more washing and some dishes, but everywhere is looking pretty good to me...

    MOJT I bet she is fine, the prospect of all those new toys to play with will be too much of a lure to her ;)

    A never looked back when we dropped her off on her first day and came out all smiles. W cried for the first couple of weeks but apparently within 10 minutes of us leaving he was playing with the others and he was full of smiles as well when he left.

    Thanks for the welcomes yesterday. I can't believe how many pages this thread has run to in a couple of days!
    I'm off work this week as its half term and yesterday's list really kick started me, after changing the bed I ended up doing the bedroom, bathroom and office, so I'm ahead of today! First time in my life I could say I was ahead of the housework - of course thats ignoring the mess in the other rooms :)
