    My kids probably think I'm the MUm from hell too! ;)

    I actually got the wedding flowers sorted out on the cheap last week by staying for coffee. I put a lot in down there so caled in a few favours.

    I guess I'm just a little stressed from the 4am worry session!

    I am going to be a sensible Snowy Owl and soak in a bath with a glass of vino and then tackle the food situation.

    Nowt major Beanie I suppose, I'm just a bit peed off. Back in October, I bough both my kids a set of revision guides each. DS is KS2 and DD is KS3. Anyhoo, half of the books are 'missing' probably is one of their bedrooms. I'm just a bit :mad: so no puter or going out till books are found :rolleyes:

    Big hugs for Bookie, :grouphug:

    Spud, my DD has just taken her GCSE mocks and I too was the mum from hell.
    Ha, just wait until she really sees me in action :D
    But, her results were better than I expected so it must have worked.

    The beauty of having this snotty, coldified, sore throat, no voice thing was that when my mother called for a chat this afternoon, I couldn't even answer the phone :D Instead DH heard all about the woman next doors hip op and the delights she found at the garden centre....I didn't laugh......much.

    DS has just taken his mock SATS, and did OK, but could do much better. If only we knew where the books were, and he had actually bothered to open them :rolleyes:
