    Hi ladies - Hope everyone is well!

    I have not been around for a while - things are tough, busy, and stressful all at the same time. I'm still flying but have not been keeping up with the thread. I hope everyone is doing well and just wanted to say - I haven't forgotten about you and will re-join you soon.

    Love, Ash xx

    Spooky I was just thinking of you last night. I hope your tummy is ok under all the stress. Good to see you post x

    heavenleigh, you've still got plenty of time to catch up on housework, it'll still be there when your little girl is all grown up, don't miss out on the important time with her to do housework. Congratulations, one step at a time, I am sure you will be back on track in no time.

    ashbart nice to see you pop in, everyones been wondering where you are hiding.

    Dusty - not a nice thing to notice, I remember noticing the same thing Christmas eve one year where we used to live. I felt awkward just having to walk past to collect the children from school knowing someone was suffering.

    Pollybear don't envy you trying to get the sample, I have managed once with a puppy by putting a bag underneath then with gloves on tipping it into the bottle, not an easy task!

    Just had sausage and egg sandwich for lunch (missed brekkie) and managed to cover myself in yolk as I haddn't cooked it fully, so I best go get changed and washed before I start the studying.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Goodmorning/afternoon. I haven't started flying yet today. I am going to do our room and stairs today as living room is still having the ceiling boarded. Boys have day off today to do it. I need to find a job for DH who has no work again this week and is geting under my feet. Literally and actually. I just walked into him in the hall!

    I will sit upstairs later and read through all the posts.
