    Well today has been the shoitiest of shoite days. DS1 has written his car off, he's ok. DD1 has been kicked off the ASDAN course she was doing from her Thailand trip and probably deserved to be. Came home and both DDs had done nothing in the home, not even @rsed to put the dishwasher on!! Not happy and completely !!!!!! off. Got pains along the back of my neck and across the top of my shoulder blades, probably stress related, going to the docs on Wednesday.

    OH has taken DS1 to look at cars, that's all his savings gone.

    In other slightly better news, have picked the colours for the living room. Going to go for a bath in a bit.

    Yours in an exceedingly large grump

    :(:(:(

    Sorry to hear that L. But you can't do it for them. It's their life/lives.
    Help around the house though. A tough one. Can you restrict or deny them anything if they don't help? Or charge em more rent ;)

    Hope you feel better soon
