    Evening all

    Not is DS3's good books - we have just driven to Judo, after I talked him into going, got there and just as we were about to get out of the car I saw two boys going in and I thought they are big for this class and then realised I was an hour later! He is sulking and I am now the worst Mum not just in our town or country but in the enire world.

    Sis has been over and we have chosen music, poems, prayers and hyme for the funeral. Just need to check if my Mum has any input.

    I can't decide whether to do a couple of bits of paperwork or start the ebay listings.

  • Dinner decluttered and washed up
    Study, bathroom, 2 x loo, kitchen and bedroom sparkly
    Studying completed

    And my reward is a splish sploshy bath with a good book, followed by a walk with hubby

    Might be back later - if not, have a lovely weekend all x
    I'd rather be watching CSI!

    Awww hugs Dusty. You can't be the worst Mum in the country or the entire world because I hold that honour apparently and have done for many years so tell him so!
