    I did put WM, DW on, made a few phone calls. Move a few cupboards contents around, the kitchen does look better for it.
    Rhys has decided on a new game, i put him in the livingroom and he comando style crawles into the kitchen, this has been repeated at least 40 times tonight.:rotfl:He better sleep all night.
    Suppose i should clean the bath if i want one tonight, still need to get all kids to bed and Rhys feed.
    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.

    Just popping in to say :wave:

    No 'visitors' at school this week, fortunately, as we're all struggling towards half-term. I've got one more early start tomorrow and from Friday I'll be taking DS2 to the breakfast club at his new school. He loved his last two days at the old school, as they made it really special for him.

    The plan is that without the afternoon naps in the taxi I should be able to get him to bed earlier, start work earlier and get to bed a bit earlier myself. On that note, I'd better get my last two jobs of the day done, so that I'm ready to go to bed when DH comes in at 11pm.

    Cuppa first, though, as I'm dropping to sleep. I was up at 5.45, out of the house at 7.10 and didn't get back in until 7.30 (Y11 parents' evening). Friday night I shall just collapse in a heap, read the thread and have a drink.

    Hope the rest of the week is good to everyone.

    floordrobe is the definition for all those bits of clothing you leave scattered around the floor - you know the stuff, you go to bed, get undressed, leave the stuff you've just got out of on the floor, climb into your night gear then go to bed. Though in many cases (me included :o) the floordrobe can include yesterday's knickers, the Sunday Times and a couple of books if the dog hasn't got to them first...

I liked pigpen's 'cure':rotfl: and like she said - can we help at all? I hope the neurologist appt helps and they have found something they can treat - but you will need to pace yourself - I am sure you know this already - so please take baby steps and concentrate on one area so that you can see the difference. break every job down into smaller chunks and you will achieve loads (((hugs)))
