    We bought some new ones today :D. Eight to be exact :beer:. It is a good job we don't operate a one in, one out policy.

    Just need to hoover our BR for my last star. I will do it whilst the boys are in the shower shortly.

    I've only got through half the thread and don't think i'll have time to read anymore.

    Mudbath well done on getting it finished and i hope your eye heals soon.
    Lil_me glad Matthew is ok.
    Jassa well done to your brother.
    Carlsbergal big hugs.
    Hello to all newbies.
    Oh Soappie sounds painful.
    Embb big hugs for you and DD.
    JillD big hugs.
    Well done Miss H.
    Poohbear i'm sorry about your dog.
    Sexymouse how awful, woman needs to learn abit of manners.

    I need to get DD sorted with a packed lunch for tomorrow, appointment in at hospital for hubby tomorrow and hopefully he'll be discharged and the plumber is out tomorrow evening.

    I think i've had the crappest week ever, DD still having problems at school and teachers are useless about it.:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    We've actually looked at another school over it all. She was kicked and pushed, ended up in wet underwear and trousers from dinnertime on.:mad:
    Head teacher only had 2 minutes to spare to talk to me because she has so much work to do for an inspection. Apparently half the school think their being bullied.:confused:
    I'm spitting feathers even thinking about it.

    Hubby was awful at the start of the week not sleeping and self harming but he's really settled now thank goodness down to the meds so i'm really hoping this will be a good week to come.

    Sorry that turned into abit of a rant.:o Think i should just go and buy loads of Thornton chocolate.:rotfl:

    I hope everyone is well.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
