okay as promised an update.....
Extension is a nightmare:(, builders are coming on monday to break through the gable wall......there is 2 blooming holes in it already....and its freezing!!!!
DS2 is nearly back to his old self after getting beaten up.....other parents were disguisted when they found out and started sending their kids here to take him out and "look" after him:) he is delighted with his new found friends!! The police have put in a request to prosecute the kids who beat him up but they have said that its now in the hands of the DPP, the little girls mum has come up to the house twice asking me to not inform social services....I havn't....but there are problems in their household that made me feel guilty then someone very sensible told me to catch myself on her daughter kicked my son so hard in the face that his front teeth went through his lip, he didnt ask her to do this!!!! My family have to remain my top priority! and will do so!!
Depression, well I thought I had it and went to the Dr, who told me to come back to him if I still felt bad in 2 weeks, I dont anymore!!! I think that the UNI thing knocked me for 6 and i was feeling a little (a LOT) of WOE is me!!!
Im quitting the ciggies tomorrow........again!!!:jIm going to be frugal:j:DIm going to be frugal:D;)Im going to be frugal;)Beetlejuice Beetlejuice...................:rotfl:0 -
Mof477 - thanks for the update. Glad you're all well (if stressed!). Your GP sounds eminently sensible.The building works WON'T last forever, trust me on that! Good luck on the giving up smoking....
Well DS has gone off to spend the day on a boat with his father. I've told him he's not allowed back unless he has some fish with him. So that should be tea sorted! I could really do with going back to bed but I don't think I will. Hairdresser is due at 8am (this is a loose term - it could mean anything between 7.30am and 8.30am and I want to bath beforehand so going back to bed for about an hour just doesn't seem worth it somehowI am the leading lady in the movie of my life

I've done two loads of washing in my new machine- one yesterday one today - but of course it's been raining so it's on the airer.
Hopefully I'll get some more done over the weekendespecially if I keep the phone off the hook :mad:

toots manflu indeed - dd is quite alright thanks! they are all scabbing over now so she'll be fine going back to nursery next week. but i think i saw a spot or 2 on ds now :eek:
sounds like a plan to 'let him get on with things' - but then i'll get up to a bombsite because he has serious CBA when it comes to housework :mad:
aww tag what a terrible day!! i do hope you have recovered by now and that you've come up with an idea for the car!!
ehm, i think you need to kick dh a bit harder, he didn't wake up ystd :rolleyes:
