I've just found out the biggest bully, he's 6 years old and a total ****, at my son's school is in his class next year. Three children have left the school because of him. The head seems to be scared of dealing with him. Looks like i'm in for a battle next year!!! I might be carp at fighting for myself but if he so much as looks as my son the wrong way........

time to calm down!!! xx

Hugs sinderella xx

Mudbath - go get 'em gal!

Pigpen - the picture is lovely. I almost shed a tear... but then decided that wouldn't fit in with my public image of grumpy old woman so sniffed it back...

Sinderella, love, hugs.. things may seem dark but there are ways out to the light at the end of the tunnel (which is NOT an oncoming train...). Baby steps hun. Baby steps. Just try one thing off your list tomorrow and give the kids big hugs and try and spend 30 minutes quality time with them.

Right, I'm off to bed. I think I may have a touch of Lil-me's sleeping sickness she had a week or so ago. I'm just pooooooped

Night night all

Pigpen - fantastic picture. Thank you for sharing. Brings back many a happy memory. Good luck to SIL!

Friday - those frightening Friday kids rooms and spare rooms
Level One
Vacuum the floor, even if it's just where you can see
Level Two
Clear away anything that isn't in it's place, clothes, toys, books etc
Dusting.. all those shelves and flat fluffy surfaces!! Don’t forget the light shade!!
Level Three
Sort through a cupboard/chest of drawers and get the clothes out which are no longer wearable, too small or out of season!
Wipe any sticky marks off walls and doors
Extra Task List

• Wash throws
• Burn some DVD's
• Time for the Friday Flylady Fling, in the toy box!!!! aim for 27.. if no toy box you’ll have to choose another area!

Ok, my lovely list for today - anWsmum - can I come and join your club soon....this list is too long!!

Feel free to find me in the heap of carp stacked everywhere!!!!

Just catching up a bit, been at work with A, she loved it as predicted, customers loved her and taaaadaaaaaa our till balanced so sorry ladies no extra £ in anyone's account today

Mudbath just seen today's dilemma. Can you negotiate a private insurance rate just for the kids? Might be a viable alternative to full blown family cover. Just be careful that it is not a new policy which excludes pre existing conditions or has a time lapsed period before fresh claims are considered.

Morning all

Slept very well. But am still a bit tired. I'm glad it's Friday. I can lie in tomorrow. Weather forecast for tomorrow is pants so I might just have a day going through family history stuff and s*d the housework. But we shall see how I feel tomorrow. I have today to contend with first. My main mission is to get that project out the door so I can have Monday off.

Have a good one ladies
