Afternoon all,

This morning disappeared with dog walking & food shopping, and the afternoon was spent cleaning kitchen floor, emptying & reloading WM, decluttering & polishing the LR. Just done the school run and will hoover lounge once cuppa is finished.

mojt - (((((hugs))))) hope you are able to act on some of the good advice already given
triker - glad you are finally starting to feel better, hope you have had all this years bad luck in January and that the rest of the year is a whole lot better.
pigpen - yours for tea tonight then!! only kidding pleased that you can finally but the whole incident behind you

Right need to find my list and see whats left.

Crafty scholar..........I think it will:)
DS1 is so upset at being given an after school detention. He is being scapegoated (because another child ran up to him and punched him in the back of the head he is 14 and really going through a lot......he did however hit the boy back, and the teachers said he has been told to come and get a teacher before he hits back.....this happened at break time when his whole class were looking on....I suppose he didnt want to lose face!!! i did tell him off and he said i had to mum or else it will just keep on happening!!!)and the DARS (Dispute avoidance resolution service) are really going to town!.....I have ran out of ink for my printer:( and i am printing out all acts and orders applicable to him re the schools decision!! Also his french teacher rang me last friday to tell me that she didnt think that the down high was the place for him to take his GCSEs....(DARS are really going nuts about that one too apparently she has broken quite a lot of regulations with that one comment)

ETA....Im meeting friends tonight for dinner and drinks:) several HHs to myself:)
Chippy Dinner tonight for the kiddies Not very MS but once i suppose wouldnt hurt!!!
Sorting out socks and doing general laundry duties!!!

Still feeling rough - and want to do nothing but wallow in misery and eat chocolate biscuits. On the positive side I have now lost 8lb since the start of the Flylady weight loss thing, and it would be a shame to ruin it now.

hugs to those in need

Divorce - The best thing I did (apart from getting divorced in the first place ) was buying the Which Guide to Divorce which saved on many 3 minute solicitor dings, and gave us a fair idea of what was reasonable and what to expect. Try running some figures through entitledto.co.uk to get an idea of what financial support you would receive based on different scenarios - it may help you to avoid knee jerk decisions around the house and work. HTH

With feeling ill I have done very little other than the dailies, and the TD is brken so the washing is piling up. Really must make myself do something useful. Off to S&S the kitchen and sort the DW.

soappie

Well Superwoman Soappie has done it again. I've been shopping -but not for food. I have grout, glue, spacers, a diamond tile cutter and 14 sq m (told you it was big!) of tiles for the kitchen floor.

I am now going to prep the venison au poivre with red wine stew for tonight, do some 'before' photos as I know you all love them, do gin and gossip with my neighbour then start prep - like removing the kick boards and the vinyl.

Tomorrow I will start laying out and planning!

And it's all AnW'sMum's fault!

Went to see mum this morning then to DDs for a cuppa.

This afternoon have been for my hair cut as it was driving me mad.

Mudbath You are not overreacting at all. They do have a duty of care.

Pigpen. Pleased to hear Tabitha is fine and you have had your cuddles. Glad you have finally managed to get your cooker.

Mumofjusttwo Big hugs for you.

Froddington Hope everything goes well at the fracture clinic.

Master A Happy Birthday! :bdaycake:

Carlsberggal Congratulations.

Valli Hugs and hope you feel better soon.

Triker Glad to hear you are not in so much pain. Take care.

soappie

Brilliant news on the cooker Piggers - what are you making for your first meal?

Venison prepped and in the oven on a really low heat. Off for gin and gossip in a mo

Valli

If anyone local to me (you know who you are) gets the tiling bug I am fairly certain I have a tile cutter you could borrow...
I have taken towels of line and given them a quick tumble to fluff and dry off and have ironed most of the washing - the maiden is full so the last few bits will have to wait.
Still to make my bed though.
Soappie you are astounding!
