Nicki - big hugs - When I bashed my finger with a mallet earlier in the year I could not beleive how much it hurt, it throbbed and throbbed, my blister was below the nail.
I've been out in the garden, prunning and planting bits out in the veg bed - forgot to take DS1 cricket stuff down to school so good job the kitchen door was open and I heard the phone - done now.
EEeeeeeeeeeeew just openned a bake in the box cake TMF which was just 2 weeks out of date and there was a moth thing and a mini worm thing in it - binned and will never get again - it was only for the school cake sale as it was TMF and thus free - they will be getting a letter!
Going to do HHC in the master bedroom now and then a cuppa before school run. Must quickly chuck some water on the veg I planted out.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Afternoon all
It has been quiet on here, hope you are all [STRIKE]enjoying the sun[/STRIKE] working your butts off
I took W for a physio appt to see if he needs any help with his fine/gross motor skills. Full assessment not complete yet as he as getting bored BUT so far it seems that they are not unduly concerned which is a big relief.
As a result no flying done here today so far.

Ah didn't think of that - I squidged it and binned the lot. Never mind I'll be compaining none the less.
Have not really got anywhere. Moved some toiletries from the wardrobe to the box under the bed and that is it.....AF has still not arrived and I want her been and on her way before Monday when we go to Centre Parcs.
Going to see if there is anything on my list to do which does not take any effort.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
