I have a horrid cold. My nose is all sniffly and my head feels like it is full of achey fluff, and yet today has been a very good day.

It started off wonderfully, you see, because when I woke up Darcy this morning he informed me that he didn't have to go to work today!!!! Today is an inset day, and thus the children would be home (it's also the first day of half-term), and realising that I wouldn't be all alone having to entertain them was like the bestest present ever! :)

Had a lovely morning, going to the library (there's a toddler story time on friday's), and then wandered around town a little. And then in the afternoon Darcy installed little lights in the girls' doll's house (he's multi-talented), and I used The Cherub's naptime to transcribe the last chapters of 'Not The Last', which now just need a bit of fine polishing and then they're good to post. And kathyh sent back Part 2 of 'AYW+1' (which was refusing to behave), with lots and lots of helpful suggestions, so hopefully I should be able to knock that into shape too. Who knows, I might even post it before the end of the month!

And to stop this being a total waste of your time, here's 'The Mom Song'. (Snagged from wisemack!) Enjoy! :)

And also yhlee wrote the loveliest Angel/Nina ficlet: Half-moon.

See you all later!

Aww, I hope you feel better soon!

I enjoyed the Mom song. Very important information. I'm taking notes. :-)

Aww, I hope you feel better soon!
Thank you. Although having written fic, nothing can dent my happiness! :)

I'm taking notes. :-)
Hee! But don't worry - it all comes naturally, trust me! (And good luck - meant to comment on your photos, but managed to forget...)

I hope you feel better soon!

I loved The Mom Song. Got 3 kids and 3 moms of my own, so I emailed it to all my friends!

Hello you! I've missed you! *hugshugshugs*

It is worryingly spot-on! *g* So glad you enjoyed it!

Having just got over a cold myself, my sympathies go out to you.

Being a mum of 2 teenage and one older daughter I found that song hilarious and everything she said in it I have said myself and I'm still saying them now.

Thank you - and I know I'll be better soon. Having been productive is very good though. :)

It's scary... at least we're all in the same boat!

Oops. I didn't know you'd got a cold when I was merrily tearing the dreaded Part 2 apart. Sorry about that and hope you feel better soon.

Today is an inset day,

*That* explains it. I couldn't work out why there were so many kids milling around in town today when I know half term doesn't start until next week. Glad you had help for the day.

Oh no! You cheered me muchly. Not knowing what to do with it has been driving me mad, so getting pointers was wonderful! :)

*That* explains it.
Glad to be of help!

Aw, thank you. Having a flist is like medicine in itself. :)
