I knew the weather had changed overnight as I woke up feeling like somebody had broken every bone in my body. Sure enough the temperature has fallen significantly and it's currently reading -8 outside our house.
Even though we've had masses of snow it hasn't been as bad because it's usually hovered around -1 which makes me sore but isn't unbearable but this morning even cleaning my teeth makes me cry out in pain!
I'm going to try to go to work tho as it means I can take my son to nursery as I can't face a whole day of manic toddler and my boss has just emailled me to take it easy if I do go in so it should be a pretty relaxed day... I think I'm taking my hot water bottle tho

    What a civilised day instead of 8.30 to 5.30 I've worked 9.30 to 3.30 hardly anybody's phoned the office has been blissfully quiet with only a quarter of us managing to make it in and it's been toasty warm despite it reading -12 on the thermometer

    Hi Chrissie

    Glad you had a good day..

    The roads have been very quiet today - I think a lot of people stayed at home!!
