    AnWs_mum.. Nothing like being dragged over hot coals is there? That must have been incredibly unbelievably hard listening to people say things like that.. if you managed not to leap up and scream at them you deserve a medal lid a dustbun lid!! My mother just complimented me on my gooooooorrrrrgeous yellow cardy... ;) .. she said she hopes I'm not wearing it when we go to Crufts! .. nothing in tonight.. but whatever it was can't have been more graphic than is online.

    Dailies – chooks – fed and watered, 2 eggs collected; laundry – done; washing up- done; post - done
    Pay Scouts’ census cheque - done
    Pay in Scouts money - done
    Watch battery for DD – bought
    Collect DH’s ring - done
    Dustbin out for collection - done
    Form for school - returned
    Supermarket shopping – done
    Renew library books - done

    Catch you all tomorrow, Penny. x

    AnWsMum, my thoughts are with you, I'd seen the press release on the Daily Mail website (possibly the one soappie mentioned if not just shout and I'll send the link) it took me a good half an hour to brave reading it, I really don't know where you get your strength from honey, I was in pieces just reading through but then looking at Ian's wonderful smile you can't resist smiling back. Just wanted to thank all of the Flyladies aswell, you lot restore my faith in human beings on a daily basis with your endless support. You're all very special. Quite bizarre this morning as I stepped out of the house the first daffodil had finally opened up, my son was a little confused at me being so pleased that a daffodil had come out but I explained it made me think of someone very special.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Just wanted to say my heart goes out to you AnWsMum and your family. As I am quite new to the forums I wasn't aware of your situation. I can't imagine what you are and have been going through. Glad you have a lot of support from the group.

    AnW'sMum today must have dragged up your whole 22 months of pain. So often we read things on the news, in the papers and think that's sad and turn over. When you know the people behind the story like we do it all seems so real and so painful. I hope you can get some rest today, you must be exhausted, I'll be thinking of you tomorrow
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair

    Many hugs coming your way AnWs mum. Hang in there, sweetie.

    I think I'm going to have a tidying sort of day, today. Wheelie bin day is tomorrow, so it needs filling. Here's the plan:

    DW
    SC
    One load of washing
    Strip boys beds and remake
    Clean ensuite
    Sort and tidy MB
    Sort and tidy Lounge
    Sort and tidy Office
    Sort and tidy kitchen
    Meeting at bank at 3pm
    Curves
    Dinner
    Finish up whatever needs doing.

    Will be back around lunch time to update :)

    Very busy week, but have caught up on the posts - just wanted to say thank you to everyone for your good wishes and support, I really appreciate it.

    Much more importantly, I shall be looking at my daffodils again tomorrow, and am sending you lots of love and hugs AnW's mum.
