    Not got much done today, just the normal daily stuff.

    Now having to deal with my DD who is having the strop from hell [in her bedroom cos thats where I sent her] all because she thumped her brother in the eye and I objected to it!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:

    Will try and catch up later

    I've also had to deal with head lice yuck yuck yuck they have taken up residence in both my childrens hair - thank goodness for the summer break as somone in his class keeps bringing them in and as soon as they get cleared at this end we have a break of a couple of weeks and then the little blighters are back again, I'm thoroughly fed up with them

    Will catch up with the thread if I get time later, hugs to all who need them including me!
