    Pigpen, Thanks for the kids room, DD has been great thanks to Toot’s stars and the little rota I made, Although we do need to have a look under her cabin bed tomorrow. When she first had the bed, I thought it would be a great place for a den but recently, have decided to free up space in the room and use under the bed as storage(DD kept bumping her head any way!!!) and although she is good at putting away, it is not perfect and inevitably things fall over and eventually it is a heap of stuff!!!
    Off to start pg. 21 now…….

    That didn't take long haha a minute!!!!xx

    Evening all, been one of those dotty dot dot days....not as clear as dot to dot hehe

    Managed to get to the shops and got the leather cleaning kit we were promised when we ordered suite but didn't get :D I knew we were supposed to get one. Got the magnifier to do the warhammer thingies

    Thanks for the votes of confidence, have put my name forward but will only be 2 going and a few have offered. Some as they think it'll look good on a CV grrr. Think it's Ed Balls that puts me off, I just think he's creepy.....never left the boys alone for that long (will mean over night stay) either. Must admit when it comes to knowledge on the talk subject, none of the other volunteers know as much as I do but that is because I'm interested in keeping up with that sort of thing, they aren't......we'll see. I will know tomorrow.

    Anyway, much of the house still untouched but I have done the loo, bathrooms almost done I cleared a mountain of hair from the plug hole *urgh* I've read 46 pages of my book I am supposed to finish by Saturday so I know what I am doing after tomorrows meeting. Dealing with school stuff took most of today that was left, issues with DS1s transport and got a report for DS2s meeting tomorrow (post diagnosis meeting) which was typed wrong with wrong date of birth, name spelling even wrong name on one piece so lost my head a bit! Weekend will be the catch up for housework I think, studying mixed in and some better planning of my time.

    ((hugs)) for those who want/need one, I best get to bed before the morning dash
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    greenbee are you ready to do some babysitting, there is going to be another flybaby!

    Congratulations! :T:T:T

    ... although I'm sure I didn't actually commit to babysitting ....:p:p

    Triker - got to bed

    I'm off now... need to be up at 6am to go to the gym

    Car is making funny noises and feels funny. I think it's the exhaust, and it may well be due to pot holes, but I need to work out when I can get it checked out. Tomorrow is absolutely crammed with calls, adn as the builders are here, I have to go into the office to make them.

    Builders leave tomorrow at 5pm, so will be gone by the time I get back. They've made great progress but it'll be good to have the place to myself for a bit. I suspect most of tomorrow evening will be spent cleaning up after them, but the weekend probably needs to be reserved for work, as I'm way behind because I haven't been able to get any writing done at night.

    See you all tomorrow..

  • The OT/Social worker lady is coming at 1430 so any 'perfect outcome' vibes before or during the hour she will be here would be wonderful.

    I hate to ask but it's really important.

    Thank you.
