    Pink chick has died :cry:

    Penny is boss of Mogs and Harry, Penny and Pink hadn't sorted out who is top boss yet. They've been pecking each other a bit, but nothing nasty. She was fine at lunchtime, I went out at 4ish and she was just lying there :cry:

    I'm going to visit a lady down the road for advice, then replace Pink with another wellsummer ASAP. And I shall call her Pink.
    Bulletproof

  • :mad:am going to have to have words with school again tomorrow. They thought it was ok to send his one to one to sit in another class today and he didnt cope.
    DS has been distressed all the way home from school then big meltdowns all evening making me cry with his anger and saying he didnt want me etc.
    He has gone to bed now but i just don`t know what to do with him:rolleyes:
    I live my whole life around him and sacrifice everything and it is still not good enough:o
    He seems to have so much anger at times and no idea of peoples feelings.

    Hi there folks

    Bit late on tonight but the day has gone anything but right:mad:!!!

    Kids have satan in them today. My folks have decided the bathroom is being fitted tomorrow and sat and I have to stay in with the workmen and satans children (didnt ask just said I would:mad:) so no night at OH with the kids again. My mate cancelled our shopping trip to Glasgow next fri :rolleyes:and to top it all....Was having a weekend away with OH at a rally next weekend. He has decided all the lads will go the fri and the women come up the sat so a completely wasted fri as the kids are off to their dads and I get stuck alone:(. anywat enough feeling sorry formyself.

    Not much os'ing today with feeling like the worlds against me:p. Tomorrow seeing as am stuck in will get on with the garden. Had my first fried courgette flowers. Yummy and hopefully more to come :T:T. Cant really do much else as the water will be off all day so maybe a bit of a dust and hoover. Baking for the week is on hold now as well no water to wash up and the kitchen is so small no room for dirty dishes.

    Noahspennilessmum - Am so sorry today was so bad. I used to work in a school and saw how the slightest change in a day affected the kids. must be so hard for him but also you:grouphug:.
    SunnyGirl - Your dad will feel so much comfier at home
    stressedoutmumof1 - You have to treat yourself sometime. I should do it more but normally end up spending my money on the boys just like this year when ds1 got a new recaro car seat :rotfl:I still need new clothes now though....ah well there is always xmas xx
    LoubyLoo - Hugs to ds.
    N9eav - You gave me my first smile of the day reading about the wifes dressing gown:T
    HariboJunkie - How are you so organised to cook and bake that
    much.

    Well off for a wee browse. Hope you all have a good evening xx:beer:
    Although I get lonely :shocked: as a single mother there are always two smiling angels ready to give me the biggest hug in the world. Love you babies :grouphug:

    Fear is a disease....Hope is it's only cure!

    Evening all,

    Feeling very virtuous....pc not turned on until 8.30...got some knitting, baking and tidying done instead of sitting here half the day!

    Wet and windy most of the day, has calmed down now but still rain threatened every day until Tuesday....bliss.

    Looby....poor DS...hope that he is as painfree as possible.

    NPM....hugs

    Tired mum.....hugs

    tru....sorry to hear about Pink.

    Haribo and Pink....thinking of the disaster if you 2 lived near each other!

    Sybil....glad that you are looking after yourself and the LB is progressing....IMHO there is absolutely nothing wrong with his speech, has just decided not to bother talking yet! We now confine Thunder and Sile in the bathroom together for some of the day and then separate them for some time...they both seem happier.

    Memory now gone.....

    hugs to all in need or want, congratulations to anyone celebrating, thanks for being my friends

    Tru - (((hugs))) so sorry to hear about pink:(

    Tired mum (((hugs))) to you x

    Looby - hope your DS soon recovers

    Our appointment at DS2s college went reasonably well. He is doing well on the whole, definitely a brain in there so they said:D we are trying to get him a bit more organised and they are emailing us a list of all outstanding work to be completed by the end of half term. DS said in the meeting that after the meeting he had with his tutors the other day he had had an epithany:confused: whatever that is - big word and it sounded good:D They said his attutude had improved. Fingers crosse we can get him back on track.

    I'm going to do some of DHs milkround with him in the morning as he's a bit under the weather - he's getting up at 1.40am:eek: but I'm not joining him till after 5am. We'll be home by about 11am all being well.

    off for a quick browse now before bed

    take care all x
    Do what you love :happyhear
