    Sorry Lucielle bit of a delayed post from me here, but I am so glad you have your boy back home. It must have been a terrible few days for you.

    So pleased for you.

    Take Care of yourself xx

    He's on a soft diet and eating very small portions. He did nearly passout after his bath. Not sure if that was because he felt weak or he stood up too quickly.

    Got to call in at the doctors surgery to get his sick note. I'm off work today, big chick sitting and the weather is fab. So I'm going to do a list, here goes:
    walk dogs
    get sicknote DONE
    take sicknote to farmer (not sure about this)
    DS1s car insurance DONE
    DS1s change of owner car thingy DONE
    DS1s tax letter DONE
    DS1s budgeting for month DONE
    OHs class one renewed (OH should do this!) HALF DONE NEED A PHOTO
    banks checked to confirm I'm still skint DONE still skint
    hoover
    peg washing out DONE
    make mince and dumplings for tea IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING AND THEN EATING
    DS2 to footy practice.
    clean fridge DONE
    Can't think of anything else.

    Hopefully once he's eating regularly again he'll feel stronger. He'll keep you in the kitchen conjuring up his favourite foods for a while now, won't he? :D

    I made a fantabulous mince and dumplings last night, even if I do say so myself. It was a Hairy Bikers recipe, with red wine in, very impressed.

    I don't think I'm going to go on my course today, DD1 has a meeting at school and I can't juggle my time enough to do course and be at school. The extra hours at work will help.

    DD1 has got work experience next week and she's going back to the first school she went to. She isn't allowed to wear jeans, so we had a sort out of clothes. She has got tonnes! I thought we were going to have to go and buy some, not now! She needs to iron them but other than that sorted.

    Had a meeting last night at DD1s school about a trip to Thailand and Laos. They go for a month and do charity work, they have to organise it themselves, transport, accommodation etc. They also have to fund raise the 3k price tag. She came home and had to write a letter as to why she should be picked. Part of me wants her to get in and the other is bit eek, about whats involved. I think it would do her confidence a world of good.

    DS1 felt a bit yuk yesterday, keeping my eye on him. Nothing planned for the weekend, DS2 needs collecting from the workshop after footy when he gets dropped off. This will coincide with DS1 needing petrol for Pippa and a possible visit to Lidl.
