I had this as well eventually I just bought all his socks the same. Yep he has a draw full of grey socks so they all match each other. Any other socks he buys he’s responsible for.

Me and my son have all black socks, the same kind, for the same reason, it works great:rotfl:

serena things aren't too bad at the minute, he's still very lively (can't think of a better word:rotfl: ) up at 4 in the morning constantly jumping from one topic to another when talking, but at least he's keeping busy round the house. Thanks for asking and the hugs.:A

He has also had a go at DS1 cuddleme spider man, and DS2 curious george glowing monkey thingy.


Anyone got any tips on how to deal with and out of control puppy!!!

Bike's built, presents are wrapped - need to do a pass the parcel at some point.

Just wondering what to do for tea - don't really feel like cooking but suppose I'd better shift my butt!

pigpen

Food in to cook..
BM finished,
another load in the WM,
the bed sheets and duvet cover are dangled all over the house to dry,
DW emptied and reloaded,
potatoes placed in the hopper,
meat out of freezer for dinner tomorrow and
another milk out to defrost,
bin filled.. I'll empty that later and

I need to fill next doors wheelie bin still so I'll go steal that in a bit too.. I have about 200 cardboard boxes in the front I need to tear up and dispose of plus the household rubbish.

TD will need reloading shortly as the last lot is almost dry

The children have the front room to tridy before they go to bed as well it is a bear pit in there.
Children placed in front of Batman..
