    Hi all, well back from London late last night. Sadly Hull FC lost to St Helens at Wembley but it was a great game and I'm still hoarse from shouting a bit.:D

    Anyway, back to the grind, at work at mo but cannot wait for my girls to get to school tomorrow.:T

    At last some normality and structure is returning to our lives.

    I then have to really plug my head into gear and start looking at what really needs sorting asap in the house. Pigpen is putting me to shame by getting so much done so I'll need some encouragement or a kickupthearrrrsseee to get myself going.;) :p

    Right off to look at the list and then start planning.

    Hope you all have a great and productive day. x

    Fab cake pigpen - did you make it?
    Love your DD and kitten photo - they both look cute!!

    Yes I did the cake.. it was just reiced.. but that was definitely the hardest bit. it took me an entire hour lol.. Yes we recycled my stepdads 60th birthday cake from December.. how :money: is that?? lol

    DD4 is absolutely obsessed with cats so when this one was placed on my bed yesterday morning she wasn't going anywhere.. I think she will be glad when the children go back to school though she hasn't had a moments peace.. and the litter training is getting a bit problematic.. Hubby was horrified that she pooped on a Bible last night... I found it hilarious but I would. In some countries she would have been stoned to death for that!!

    Hi Triker - sorry the team didnt win but glad you had a great time!
    there's loads of encouragement as I'm sure you know and plenty of volunteers to give anyone a kick where required :rotfl: You will be better once the children are back in their routine with school so hang on in there and just do a bit at a time - rmember what everybody keeps telling me - BABY STEPS ( i think I need giant leaps actually but will plod on ...)

    have a good day and rest the voicebox!!

    It was dumped on my bed yesterday morning.. how could I say no?? Come for a cuddle.. she is dead cute! K will love her!!

    How would I know about karoo.. I didn't get up until 11:45!!! We were out until silly o'clock this morning.. hubby was karaokeing in Bevvy.. how hideous is that?? LOL.. AND .. he was BBAAAAADDDD.. lol

    I am running on paint fumes.. but REALLY looking forward to tomorrow.. must get everything sorted though.. The only thing we know its whereabouts are the shoes.. and that is only because they are all new in the boxes stacked in my room!! Tiddles can't wait.. she has been asking when they are going back since day 2... I do think the hols have gone really quickly though..

    Hubby was complimented yesterday on how 'well disciplined' our children are... apparently enough to keep them in check but not too much to break their spirit, as they are all really individual, confident and happy children. Mad!! lol

    Bleurgh, i feel ill. *Note to self - Dont eat bananas, you know you are allergic*
    Ah well, throat/ears/glands all still sore so feeling a bit sorry for myself:o
    Might do some baking with LO after lunch, have no goodies in the house so we might make some. Got some lovely pure lemon oil in Lakeland the other day(reduced from £10.99:eek: to 49p:money: ) so maybe some lemon fairy cakes? Or something similar, anyone got any good lemon recipes?
