Right, I think I might manage to finish off wrapping the couple of presents that I still need to do. Am drinking a hot chocolate with a generous slosh of brandy in it. I should have had one of those much earlier! Am also watching my beloved Everton fielding a team of children in Europe. Should be interesting

I need to sort teacher pressie....will do that now before I forget and end up rushing (more than normal) in the morning.................

TAG

Aaarrrrgggghhhhh!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:

***RANT ALERT***

Just had a row with Mr Tag. Miss Tag is supposed to stay at his tonight as I have work in the morning. But, because she's been off school today as she was sick, he doesn't want her there. He didn't actually say that, to be fair. But you know when it's quite obvious when someone doesn't want to do something.........:rolleyes::rolleyes::mad::mad:

The fact that she hasn't been sick again since this morning and has eaten and kept everything she's had down and has spent the afternoon bouncing about, means nothing. Apparently I want her to stay there just for it to suit me, even though this was arranged two days ago!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::mad::mad:

So not only did I end up keeping her up for half an hour extra tonight, so she could go to her dad's after he'd brought DS back from football training, for no reason whatsoever. Now, I have to drag her out in minus whatever it is at 7.15am tomorrow morning, to go knocking on his flippin door for however long it takes for him to hear us and get his lazy (insert a torrant of swear words) backside out of bed.

You'd have thought that after four children and 19 years of parenting I would be a bit more qualified than him to decide whether or not she should go to school tomorrow. But am am just her mother and I know nothing:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I am absolutley livid :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: Can you tell????

**RANT OFF**

Going for a bath to calm down. Be back later.

I don't want any uninvited visitors for Christmas so the cats have had a dose of flea treatment and the kids have been nit combed.
