My house looks quite tidy. Do hormones start to kick in at 9? DD is in time out again for being a little madam! Do I just ignore her rudeness or do I keep pulling her up for it? DS has a black eye - fell over at school - silly monkey!
I would go and have a tidy up upstairs but spotty dotty is lying on my arm and it would be rude to move her! x0 -

Mmmm, I obviously need to work on finding it funny! I want to tell her to change her friends (one has just been done for shop lifting though my DD doesn't see her out of school!!!) but I know she needs to make her own decisions! Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Is there a little island I can go to for the next 10 years! xx0 -
