I managed my MACAW :j:j:j Even better, when we got to school since its raining they had the doors open letting the kids in so I made it home again my 8.58
:D Rescheduled lunch for Friday, washed up and I think I'm going to make a sausage butty, hot chocolate and then go for a hot bath. Next I'll either go to bed for an hour or two, or get on with some studying depending how dopey I feel after the bath
Either way that sausage sandwich is calling my name....laters :wave:

MACAW... EAT BETTER, no snacks, no junk0 -
When I thank posts the apologies there is a problem error page comes up under the persons post, wow, forums having one of THOSE days again!
juliejim ((hugs)) I don't know how you all cope with AF days, I can't even think about them any more. Dinner, erm, grilled fish, oven chips and salad?
Moam hope your DS is feeling better soon
holly if your DS doesn't wet them on a night, just tell him the shop had non left so he'll have to go without one!
PF haven't you got enough on your plate honey? I know, certain amount of pot/kettle there, I would be doing it myself if it wasn't for Megan's mood towards other dogs changing (since she got bounced on she attacks other dogs) I'd be probably doing it now....
Denise get to bed!!!
Well I couldn't sleep, I got to sleep, but woke at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep, stayed in bed until 6am then gave up. Had extra time so did the kids satsumas to go in their lunch, neither can peel them so have to do it for them. DS1 collected by his taxi and DS2 walked to school, brrrrr, cold out there this morning. Came back, put all the bins out (1 box and 3 bags of recycling plus normal bin) took dogs out. Filled DW, made a cuppa then slobbed on the sofa
Determined to get things done today, I have made progress just in pottering, I cleared DPs 20+ can collection this morning for the recycling bin, wonder if I could get spikes that come out of the ledge if he tries to leave a can on there. Bloomin' shelf goes right round the living room where the sofa is so he just piles it high. Living rooms just a major hotspot at the mo so todays list will probably fit in well.
My tins nearly fullymeaning I can empty it soon!!!!
One day I might be more organised...........

My neighbours have got workmen in who are drilling
I know it can't be helped but I could really have done without it today. Guess I won't be getting my head down like I planned. Oh well, on with the studying. Will dust later when I have a "brain break" as the kids call them in school
