    I took some paracetamol, had a bath and have got my pj's on, and feel fine now, tired but fine :D Ds is in bed, he's been really good again tonight, looking back over the holidays his behaviour seems to have dramatically improved recently and I'm really hoping that going back to school doesn't send it flying again :o A friend at school brought him a train whistle back from her holiday and I gave it to him tonight and he has *voluntarily* written her a thankyou note and it is legible :j :j I'm sooo proud :D:D I think I will photocopy it off her before she takes it home :D

    At least you can see that he "can" behave nicely......so if his behaviour deteriorates when he is back at school, you know where to look for pointers.......it could be something at school, or it could be needing more sleep etc, but what it won't be is something you are doing wrong at home.

    Glad your headache has subsided.

    Evening all :D I can't believe I've only been back at school for two days, I feel exhausted already :rolleyes: :o

    Ds has just gone off to his dads for the weekend, Mum and Dad are away so no looking after dad this weekend, best mate is away for a week, other mates are either away or busy so I have planned myself a completely chilledout - moneysaving - relaxing kinda weekend :D I'm planning on doing a bit of housework, lots of laptop time, :D some matched betting time and lots of other general mse type activities, such as checking my soa for any savings to be had, some ebaying, my tax return ... but overall it will be a lazy, mainly horizontal on the sofa, kinda weekend :j

    Enjoy the chillout time - personally, when DD is away I get toooooooooooooo lonely :( But, I've got a whole week in her wonderful company starting tomorrow at the crack of dawn, we're off on holiday, yippee!!

    Sounds like you and Tigz should get together with a couple of bottles of vino *hic* :)

    Really should do the final check of the suitcases/paperwork and get to bed as I had a rubbish night's sleep last night, had a 24-hour bug and DD was in with me wriggling and generally being whiney. Ho hum...what's the betting my light will still be green in 2 hours, lol.
