    Johanne - that's brilliant news - will be thinking about you - I'm assuming Nicki's going to be making the announcement we'll all be waiting for!

    G&B - glad you've got the school you want.

    Well I'm in from work - the school was closed due to the strike so we all went in early so we could finish early!

    I suppose I really ought to start doing something seeing as I'm here.

    HHC 2-2.30 anyone?

    Got all bathroom cupboards done out before i left to get DS1 then had to go and get hubby only problem was that DD was sick in the car and missed the plastic bag, all she could do was say sorry and all i could say was that it wasn't her fault.

    Time for something to eat, then bathroom but if the rain stops i'll clean the car out.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Hoovering all done.

    Cut the loose threads off the back of the sofa - only taken a year.
    Stitched the corner back on OH office rug - only taken 9 months.

    DS2 gone to play tennis so I'm doing the bolog then sitting down with a gardening bok in peace for 30 minutes before I go get DS3 from school.

    Busy, busy, busy, fly, fly, fly... Yes, I have actually been doing something today!

    I chained DS1 to the PC, with a list, and checked up on him at 15 minute intervals, while I did the livingroom, hall, main bedroom, cloakroom and bathroom. I even had time to play in the garden for a little while! I've taken him into school, so I now have a little time free. Pity it's raining, as I wanted to go to the allotment. Working again tomorrow, and it's for a French teacher, great!

    poohbear - congratulations on your DD's engagament!

    johanne - Good luck!! Your body knows how to do this, so just let it get on with it. If at all possible, stay as upright as possible, and move around for as long as you can. If you are stuck on your back, it slows things down quite a bit. Look forward to reading news tomorrow!

    g&b - great news about the school

    princesstippytoes - I understand. My mum had a severe stroke last autumn, and I really miss nattering on the phone to her. We talked almost every day. Hugs.

    Hev - (((hugs)))

    Can I ask you ladies a question - as you know I'm trying to loose weight and quite a bit has gone from my chest making my bras too big. Right now I can pinch about 2" deep material on the cup of the bra so what cup size do you think I would need if this one is a 42G? :o:confused::o

    Off to do some more ebay listings :wave:
