Vanilla...you have a pm. x
OMG its freezing today. I really don't do cold. DD2 and I are chilling out at home this morning keeping warm and I have every intention of having a little snooze this afternoon when she goes to bed as I did the school run as normal, went to ma day job, got home at 6pm, got my uniform on, went to my mum's, threw my tea down my neck then went to my evening job and finally got home at 11.30pm. I'm working tonight and tomorrow night so 40 winks will keep me going til I can have an early night on Sunday.
I'll do a bit of tidying in the kitchen when I get lunch and I'll put a wash on in a minute. Got some cloths to put on a hot wash.
Mudbath...thanks for the link, it sounds like a lovely idea. I like the link that someone posted on how to make them too.
Dusty...do you want to come and rescue my lounge and kitchen too?!;)

Thank you Honey Bear0 -
piggers, lil_me, Dusty and toots thanks for the hugs etcYou feel like you are on the beginning of a long and difficult road which will give your son the best chance possible of having a successful school career.. it is a long and arduous road with many pitfalls but is so very worth it!
If any of us can help with DH you only have to ask.. or just someone you can offload to.. big hugs for you all xx
DH was a bit better this morning, he was still here when I got back from school so we had a chat and looked at all the school paperwork and he is feeling a bit more rational.. Up til now he has left it all to me and then disagrees with anything I have said to anyone or anything I have filled in on a form. We have some more forms to do so we did those this morning and I made him sit with me and help me so its partly his contribution too, and he is in agreement with all the wording. He's taken it all to work to photocopy.
I just need to collate it all now and do a covering letter. Job for the weekend.
