Looking after brokenhearted DD whose boyfriend decided out of the blue that he wasn't happy. I was doing housework as I couldn't settle to anything else. I hate seeing her so unhappy, so keep crying myself. At least the house looks great. If this carries on I may start redecorating....
Welcome to all the newbies. Keep on going. A small improvement each day, repeated each week, adds up to a huge transformation in time.
It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
DD - 'I've had better'
DS 'They're alright'
(BUT thay have bothe eaten TWO - getting the rest in the freezer before the Vallikids arrived home was clearly a wise decision)

Thank you Honey Bear0 -
Serena hugs for your DD, they had been together sometime hadn't they. I see some retail therapy on the horizon.
Tooch - did you get branded ones? I think there are 'own makes' or they might be on BOGOF from time to time. I've seen them in Tesco
Dinner done.
Stuff put into the loft
Going to do a HHC at 6:00 to see if I can finish any days.

1. [STRIKE]Order charity Christmas cards[/STRIKE]
2. Buy stamps from S'drug
3. Swim?Can't swim asthma is too bad today.
4. [STRIKE]Order wine for C'mas with vouchers[/STRIKE]

6. [STRIKE]Book restaurant for DS2s b'day [/STRIKE]

Didn't think of that Dusty but will check next time I go to the shops......Thanks xx0

OH and DD1 playing with the erection.. 2 chests of drawers she is sorting her clothes into.. hopefully I will have a halfway resonable house before hell freezes over!
I am meant to be doing dinner.. but I haven't yet.... may sling some spuds in and veggies and use the last of the pig from the fridge! I got pig out to do casserole tonight.. then fell asleep and when I looked the pig has turned into turkey.. oh well.. that is dinner sorted for Sunday now, though I will have to cook it tonight and fridge it until then.. or freeze and then defrost.
OH has been invited out for diner.. in Stockport tomorrow so it looks like we are heading off over there again.. will be back tomorrow night though as I have DD1 and a friend staying over.. she is meant to be at her das tonight with the others but hasn't gone yet!
The 2 small pinks were at opticians tonight.. both are fine.. though I had to buy Tiddles new shoes as in the space of 8 weeks she has gone through the heels on hers! .. These are Clarks shoes so not cheap crappy things.. I am sending them to the head office with the receipt and a letter of complaint! Plus the fact she had also outgrown them didn't help!
The pumpkins are in the compost.
The wahsing is up todate.. or it was until everyone stripped themselves of school wear.
I have decided I am deferring my uni place until next year if I can.. if I can't I will simply reapply. I have too much going on with the children, the house and everything else I don't have time to do it. I haven't even spoken to a solicitor about a divorce yet and he left in March.. where does the time go? I have no time at all to myself and my children are suffering as is the house.. it looks like a skip! So, I think for the time being it is a decision that as hard as it is, is the right one. I am going in to speak to them on Monday but I am VERY difficult to persuade onto a different path.. as you all know lol.
There.. off chest it is..
Oh.. Moomin brought a letter home today saying she has been put on the gifted and talented for her lovely art work..
