Best get packing!

As the first week of the Easter hols draws to a close, I can almost breath a sigh of relief at having survived!!
It has actually been a really busy one. L was on a netball course for 2 days over in Aylesbury, which meant two very early starts to get her up and ready and drive over there. Well worth it though, she loved it and passed the course with flying colours. She was also awarded the most improved player award! Well done darling- love you loads.xxxx

J has been happy playing in the garden with his remote control car, has given hours of fun(to us all) it is a little pocket rocket!! Visited my mum & dad yesterday and spent a lovely day doing nothing with them. Other than that we haven't actually done much, but have all survived with no major issues along the way and all limbs still intact.(seriously that is a first!!)

I really need to get my arse in gear and start packing as we go on holiday on Monday. I am really looking forward to it. Ok so Florida it isn't, but a week doing nothing in Devon is my idea of bliss right now!!! We hope to go for lots of lovely walks and kick abouts on the beach!! So tonight I have a hot date with the iron I think!!!

Today my friend is coming to visit. She is my oldest friend- not as in she is old, but I have known her for 34 years!! Not much we don't know about each other!! That said, she is your typical blond, so I won't hold my breath that she will actually arrive, she is rather ditsy !!! I hope she does though as we haven't caught up in ages.

Am still in a lot of pain, for those that know about my backache!. I have finally decided that enough is enough though, and am going to make an appointment for after my holiday to check it out with GP. I have to, it is no longer manageable. Almost passed out the night before last with the pain, and I have quite a high pain threshold. Will keep you updated.

So my plan for today is washing, ironing etc - very exciting stuff. L has her friend over today for a sleepover. I think they are going into town for a couple of hours, so very grown up!!! Might convince them to watch Twilight again, as I am having Edward withdrawal symptoms!!!

Had best tidy up too as mum & dad are over tomorrow, have to do some washing for them as there machine died yesterday after 10 long years of service. The new one isn't coming until wednesday, so I offered my services!!! Think I might do a roast for them too, haven't had a roast in ages! Yummy!!
