A new start for Mooloo

Happy Birthday Mooloo :beer:

The stall looked fab, you really are very clever - I can't even sew a button on safely :eek:

I know you would rather have spent the day with your BF but what a lovely surprise for you - He must earn some points for that

Well good morning.
thanks once more for all the lovely messages. They helped to make my day.
I was in bed by about 7.30, but DGd was still playing in bed until about 8.15. so I was tucked up looking at the lovely books that Molly gave me!. So inspiring.
I woke several times, still getting these terrible stomach cramps. Not nice.

DGD woke around 6am so its been an early morning, so just as well I was in bed early.
DS couldnt ride back, as his bikes wheel fell off! So he is stopping at his sisters. Means I have to go and get him earlish this morning, as wwe have to be back here for the SW to see him, about his CRB check, and the Family Awareness talking etc. She is coming for 10am.

DGD is watching Post Man Pat. Its one I remember my ones watching, I must admit.
I need to get on, but feel quite jaded.
Lets hope that DGD sleeps at a normal time today, and I can rest. Then this evening perhaps I will get that second wind. I really am worried about making that toaster cover for tomorrow.
Along with a few other things that I had wanted to put on the stall. Still not sure if I should cancel, as I feel so bad. Sitting there for two hours with a 2 year old too. Not good. Her mother is saying she cannot come over as she is not well. So apart from an hello through the car window yesterday we have hardly seen Mum this week. No stopping over, no vists, and now no Stay and Play as the SW is coming slap bang in the middle of the times we do that one.!
Seems like a very long week to me, and a very long week ahead next week, with meetings etc every day next week. Exhausted just thinking about it all.
Right better get us dressed.

Why did I ever think that I could get DGD to sleep this afternoon.
alas I had to do two trips to Towcester, as DS had to be here for the Fostering SW, and then he wanted to be back in Towcester to see his Girlfriend.
so after the SW had left, we had an hour before we were out again. DGD fell asleep about 3 miles from home! So typcially when we get home she would not go to sleep. Although as I was upstairs, she messed about etc in her room, and played with her toys so I did get about an hour to draw up the toaster cover pattern, and cut it out in the lining, test it on my toaster, and then make up the shell and line. But it still needs some binding done, but DGD had played enough, and wouldnt leave me in peace so I gave up.
I had a text from BF? He said he can only get a signal when he is halfway up a mountain. So no more texts till he is back from the wilderness of Wales then.
Not sure I will manage much different to do for the stall, and now I dont have any childcare to care for DGD, so I may have to just take mystuff down, and leave it with the person running it? I think that I will have to aim to only do a stall/table end once a fortnight, when she is with Biggest of Mooloo's. I cannot afford to pay a babysitter, and her mother is not being very cooperative anymore. (signs that there well may be a new BF in the picture?)
Ds will not be back until sometime tomorrow. Unless of course he changes his plans at the last minute.

We are watching the Wiggles again!. Shes doing the actions already.
I may draw up some of the patterns that need tracing from the new books, while I am able to. Now that there is a table in the corner of the sitting room. I can sit up to that and keep my eye on DGD. We only moved the table there yesterday, (it was in my bedroom before, but the big table has had to be collapsed as it was taking up far too much room).

Sorry if this is harsh, but why are your DS's romantic liaisons your problem? Surely he should have been concentrating on getting his bike wheel back on again?

Biggest of Mooloo's BF, is taking the bike to fix it. He has to rebore the thread or something, as the thread on the wheel nut was stripped. So it is in hand. Remember that we live miles away from anywhere and he has been home a lot more and been helping me with DGD too. I will not be running around everyday for his romantic liasons, but he would not have needed to come back today if it wasnt for the fostering SW wanting to meet him and do the forms for his CRB check!.

Tonight I have just put DGD to bed. Hopefully she will start to fall asleep soon, as I want to do some sewing. Even though I really feel like a soak in the hotsoapy waters of a bath!.

I have dug deep into the cupboard under the stair and found some of the cushion pads that I bought last year, and I am going to make another football shirt into a cushion cover. That will fill a gap on the stall. Then I will see about a few different pillowcase bags. Possibly somethingelse, but it will depend on her falling asleep, and my ability to stay up!.:D
