    List not looking to bad, only a couple more things to do. Have just changed the filter on the cooker hood and washed, Yak!!!!


    DD2 a bit more settled today, has been busy on the sewing machine creating things, its really a surprise I got to do anything what with giving her instructions and advice about how to make and construct a garment, not to mention sorting the sewing machine out for her. I have also ordered a couple of patterns (£19!!) for her ones a leisure suit type and the other is some pull on trouser type. I know its a lot but these patterns go from XS to XXL and are very simple so they will do for all of us, plus I'm trying to find a way of getting her clothes that she will like and wear. Part of her autism is about her clothes and the feel of cloth, so hopefully with these basic patterns we should be able to construct a wearable wardrobe. Plus they are so easy she should be able to make them herself. Going to iron her uniforms, have appointment on Wednesday with SENCO which she will come to but as I told the head (and anyone else who would listen) she isn't going in until all provision is in place.

    Hiya
    Just a quick post from me to thank you all for your support. My friend died peacefully last night. I'm glad it's not been dragged out. I'm flying like crazy to keep busy but if I don't post much don't worry about me - I'll be back! This is just the way I deal with things when I'm a bit out of sorts - don't sit still and declutter/tidy/clean/throw stuff away. DH and the children are worried if they don't keep moving they'll be put in a charity bag.

    A massive thank you again for your support and big hugs to you all.

    Catch up soon

    Mudders xx

    Just realised before that Ive made the final payment on my endowment policy. Just waiting to hear how much of a short fall there is. Second smaller part of mortgage finishes in June Yay!.

    Fingers crossed the short fall isn't short and it covers everything it needs to ...

    JillD - lovely news about the new baby - well done you for looking after his siblings

    Mudders - big hug re your friend and I'm glad she went quickly rather than lingered for ages. You take all the time out you need but remember, we'll still be here and may need use of that squirrel suit you sewed all those months ago :)

    AnW's - glad W seems to be on the mend..

    HellsBells - you're doing great there with DD and the sewing machine - keep it up!

    I'm knackered this evening. I willfully stayed up to watch a trachy film last night so was late to bed. It has caught up with me this evening. But I can't go to bed until the BM has finished it's cooking!

    I have done half the kitchen list though so it's not all gone to pot...
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
