loldustythatmademelaughaboutnospacesicoulddriveyouallmadcouldn'tI!!

luckily i can still use my other thumb! They're going to measure me up for a brace tomorrow to stop me using it as much as possible. That should help. One of my exercises is to put my arm so my hand is off the edge of the table. Then I have to push my hand down only it doesn't go very far. DS, bless him, thought he'd help and swung on my hand!!! Ouch, lol xx

wow, am so knackered!!! Mr t has just been and the kids have helped me get it all put away, just going to sweep and mop the kitchen floor and then sort a few bits of paperwork, oh has got a film for us to watch when he gets in from work at about 11 so think it might be a late one...

I hope everyone is OK, I only pop on here occasionally...when I'm feeling motivated, I find it amazing how much I can get done when I put my mind to it and what a difference it makes....I really feel that I'm starting to see changes but need to keep it up for a few months to see a real change.

Thanks for the inspiration guys XX

Hiya Liuhut - glad you're finding the flying helps. My house is definitely better and I almost (I did say almost) miss it when I don't clean, lol.

I sat DD for a chat to see what's up. She says she's not sleeping till late so feels tired and grumpy. She's been like this on and off since last year and as far as I know there's no reason for her not sleeping. Anyway, she adores our dog and i've told her if she sleeps quickly each night she can have the dog in her room on Friday. Normally she's up and down with excuses like I need a drink. Tonight she went to bed and eight at is asleep already. Think i'll let her have the dog once a week, lol. Lets see if her grumpiness improves.

Thank you so much for your lovely messages today. It's really helped.

Oh yes, oi pigpen...I completed my list even with a dodgy thumb so where's my dog biscuit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xx

nickie, is this your first OU course?
If so you will find that they have forums for all sorts of things - including one for your course so you can keep in touch with other students doing the same course.

Yes its my first course - took one look at all the paper and thought :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Put the assignment cut off dates on the calender and a reminder a week before that I only have a week left to do it Should be fairly easy as its the personal finance one and Johanne said it was really easy :rotfl:

is it in good enough condition? i hope so. back to no capials because arm is dipped in parafin wax, with a carrier bag and tea towel wrapped round it and an oven glove over the top! if i do this for ten mins the exercises are more effective. irony is i bought the oven glove from ikea the day my wrist got broken. you have to laugh!!!

Evening all,

I have my PC back :j :j

Came online to read thread didnt think I would have 6 pages to read through, everyone has been very busy today both posting and flying..Okay heres what I can remember -
pigpen - your tiddles sounds like my DD1 she decided that she wasnt wearing a nappy at night, we had about 4 weeks of lifting her on our way to bed but we had very few accidents, whereas with DD2 it was a fight all the way but we eventually got there.
soappie - great pics my DD1 would hate your kitchen with all those cactus - she fell on one about 3 years ago and I can still remember her screams and pain while I sat with tweezers pulling out all the spikes she wont go near them now.
mudbath - sorry to hear about your thumb it must be so annoying for you but will hopefully all work out okay after some rest and physio.
