Morning all :hello:

Snowy - just finished reading yesterdays thread :grouphug: for you. I worked for both big supermarkets for many years, and if you can manage on the wages then I toowould say go for it Sainsburys was always more friendly IMHO. Life is too short to hate your job. I've justed recently changed jobs and although my job statisfaction has declined, my work /life balance is improving and I'm so more chilled

Well , we wnet to visit OH's new niece last nigth, she is 9 weeks prem, so very small and looking at a long stay in hospital. Visit just confirmed my belief that children are not on my agenda

Had a lovely lunch with my best friend yesterday, good to catch up.
No w**k for the next 2 days :j
Off to a garden show today and then hopefully tomorrow can spend the time in my own garden tidying up. OH cut the lawns the other day, but he is not allowed to touch the plants as he can't tell the difference between a flower and a weed

Well, need to make a more
:grouphug: to EVERYONE
Have a lovely day

Good Morning All
The clouds have opened here this morning, not bothered to put the WM on yet, DW still full, everyone asleep but me and the dog !

Did nothing yesterday, well actually I did I played for hours on the Playstation with boys, they love the fact I can't 'drive' with bunch of vibrating buttons as controls.

This morning I am job application filling in to listing on ebay ironing and I might get my stardrops out cos it feels neglected after yesterday.

Dobie Big hugs to you, I think you are wonderful, just being there without critising is great, like you sat you need to take care of yourself too.

PPThis time last year my DS was the same, IIRC when we transferred to the '1st year' you visited the school once in May or June and come September Bang ! You are in. I love the way the introduce them now with mentors and baby steps to year 7.

Hope you all have a good day, must go read yesterdays thread.

morning all

the sun is shining already so looks like its going to be a great day
at last my knee is beginning to go down a bit but just feel washed out now
its dgs2s birthday today so will be over later for his little party at home, he didnt want a big party, prefering to have a bigger present
will be over to the library later to pick up a request, it wont be the paupers cookbook as its missing seemingly
will try to catch up with the housework today and sort out the apples as i picked five supermarket bagsful yesterday and theres lots more yet

penny-pincher - i worried how dd would get on at high school as she went straight from a small village school, but she got on fine
dobie - big hugs to you, as a mum i can understand how you feel about your son, at least when he sees the light he will be so lucky to have you there x

love to everyone x

Morning all :wave: (is there a "rubbing sleep out of the eyes" smilie?)
Not a bad nights sleep - just not enough of it OH was up & out at 1/4 to 7

joannasmum - hope you managed a good nights sleep
churchmouse - It's still on page one at 7.30!
Dobie - Even at 30 yrs old they're still your babies & you worry about them just the same. ((hugs))
Pen-Pen - I can vouch for the benefits of wireless laptop - I'm in bed typing on mine this very minute!
PP - I 'spect MATH is at his "summer residence". I'm sure he'll be back next week to entertain us once the MATH-letts are back at school.
tiredmum - full time job from Monday & you're jumping for joy?? Bonkers woman!
Amanda666 - you & me both on the baby front. Everyone else coos over babies, I just think "I still don't want one!"

Plans for today are...erm, not much really. Must clean the kitchen, find something for dinner (that will involve a supermarket trip) and there's a grey suit in M&S I've had my eye on, so may go try that on. I do begrudge buying work clothes! OH, and go to the gym at some point.

Hugs to all, hello to everyone I've cross-posted with. Have a lovely Saturday.

The wake afterwards was lovely MIL had marks and spencers do the buffet.

It was nice to catch up with all the relatives shame it was at a funeral.

DD is at a sleep over atm she will be back late this afternoon.

I have loads to do today will post in the fly lady thread.

Hope everyone is well

Good morning everyone,

Well, im up, but not quite with it after last nights lovely evening!!! Would liked to have stayed in bed, but DS is meant to be playing football this morning, although it is raining at the moment, so there is a good chance it could be called off, i just hope we dont get all the way there (its a good half hours drive) to find its cancelled.
I also left the washing outside last night (i knew i shouldve picked it in before going out!!!) so now it is all dripping, need to decide if im going to wash it all again, or just give it a quick spin and hang it on the airer inside.
Right, better get moving, have a very busy day, 3 mystery shops, a big trip to Tescos and still need to get DS and DD their school shoes (i know, ive left it late again!!!!) and maybe the football in a minute!!!

Joannasmum - glad you had chance to have a chat with DH, hope all is ok now!!!

Mark and ajr - :hello:

Dobie - (((:grouphug: ))) our children are always a worry and i think you are doing the right thing being there for him, i hope all will be ok xxx

Pen Pen - head is ok this morning, just wish i couldve stayed in bed a bit longer!!!! Good luck with the internet and FIL later!!!!

PP - glad you and DD had a good chat, hope you get to relax today after your bad night xx
