  • Triker - Little ****'s. They just don't realise the misery they cause. May they be struck by a bolt of lightening!!!!!

    Very bad morning in the Taffy household. Got up late, DD1 doesn't want to go to school anymore!!! Only been back a week! Bless her, she's not interested in school work at all and now being at a middle school they have 'way too much!!!'.
    On a brighter note, DD2 was up and dressed by 7.30 and soooo excited that she is back to school nursery this afternoon, still a bit miffed that she can't go all day!
    They were argueing, DH shouted at DD1 (he said he didn't but he did) she started crying and wouldn't get out of bed, oh the joys of children!! lol

    Todays list:
    Collect wonderful children from schools
    Tea
    Buy paint for H/S/L
    Tidy kitchen
    Go for my pre course interview
    More photos of ebay stuff
    Put stuff on ebay
    Lounge as per pigpen list (some of anyway!)
    MUST DO DD1 thank you letters, it will be her next birthday by the time I get them done!

    Have a good day ladies. Taffy
    Need to sort my life out! :T

    Not too bad considering I had 2 interruptions (both good though): 1 = elderly neighbour gave me a load of tomatoes as she's going away on Friday and wouldn't be able to use them up, 2 = I've got a booking for supply for Thursday morning in Southsea. The agency said they'll also be sending out faxes with availability today to all the schools, so one of my regular supply schools that I worked in before will know I'm back on the books again which should hopefully mean a bit more coming my way. :T
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
