Anyway, I have found a local class lesson(other one was a 20 min, at least, drive away at 4/4:30 after school) and want to stop the one to one lessons.........what do I say to one to one teacher, we normally communicate through text????

Depends on whether you've already made up your mind to go for the place closer to home. If you really want to go for the new place, just tell them 'thank you' for DD's progress so far and explain that the journey is becoming too inconvenient. You could also offer some constructive feedback and say that whilst you have been very happy with the service, DD could do with a firmer hand and, as for bringing own children to lessons, that is really not on.
If you want to keep DD with her current instructor you could ask for a review, ask the instructor for his/her views about DD's progress and put your points forward. You could also enquire about the policy for bringing 'guests' to 1-2-1 lessons, as you feel it's holding DD back. If the response is not what you'd hoped for you can still decide to move her.

STAR PLEASE TOOTS
Thanks to my lovely kids:D I was feeling rubbish so I went for a lie down. I left the first page of this thread on and DS1 decided he and the others would do it all for me. Bless them

The freezer was done a couple of weeks ago ready for me doing os cooking so didn't need doing again.

My kids are just lovely:A

WTG sandy, its so good to hear the children helped you without having to be asked, now how do you do it :rotfl:

Piggers - I cant believe KH, what sort of planet is he on to keep the littllies out that late, have you spoken to your solicitor about it? Hope you get the email soon too, ours dont start sending them out until after 5pm and I wont get one as its only those who applied online get email, we're waiting on the snails

Right I think I better check saturdays lotto ticket and find my way to my bed.

Hopefully catch up with you all tomorrow

Did All of this today, as i need to be ahead as I am out all day on Wednesday with DD2's 2nd dance competition of the year. Have also done some of the the extras aswell. Have to admit I am quite tired but know that it was much easier to do as i have been either completing all levels since i started or at least doing something from each level each week. So I will make a start on the Master Bedroom tomorrow using the post from the previous weeks and which i will cross off when the list is posted, and do 1/2 hour of Dusty's anniversary declutter.

Also have emptied laundry basket, all has been washed & currentlly in TD, so just need to iron in the morning. I have never been on top of Mount Wash/ironmore....the view is great lol

Anyway off to bed now see you all in the morning

toochoosey

Dustykitten, I like the idea of her having a social side of swimming(another reason for moving her), and you word it just the way I wanted(but was unable to!!!)
Mrs Chaos…..I may copy some of your text if you don’t mind, along with Dusty’s, all fab thoughts, thanks xx

Evening all

Monday ~ Kitchen & Dining area
Level One
Declutter and wipe worksurfaces - almost did 2 out of the 4
Sweep and mop the floor - not quite but have picked up all the crud off the floor - ready to be swept and washed in the morning before work
Wipe table! - no still cant see much of it

Extra:
clear the said table!!
[STRIKE]pick up stuff that is scattered around the kitchen floor. - cannot sweep or mop without doing this first.....![/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]get bag of charity stuff ready and take to the car when I go to work.[/STRIKE] - bag of books done
[STRIKE]empty rubbish and recycling bins[/STRIKE]
empty the food waste bin
[STRIKE]take all my tablets[/STRIKE] - I often forget them!!:o
[STRIKE]WM x 2[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]TD x 2[/STRIKE]
Put clean clothes away - I am really bad at doing this hence my house looks like a jumble sale is permanently running from the sofa!!:D
find paperwork for tax return - I know it is way late but I have adopted the head in the sand approach!


So not a brilliant day of flying but I was very late home from work losing some of my evening. I have been told that I can order a wheelie trolley case thing for my laptop and papers for work so that I don't have to carry them - so pleased as this should help my back - I just need a desk assessment now as the chair and desk are appalling.

Tuesday ~ Living room, reception rooms and hallway
Level One
clear coffee table
Clean both tables

Extras
WM x 2
TD x 2
Take all doses of my tablets
soak top that got covered in blood when I had a nose bleed at work - how embarrassing was that - I had to come home and change!
clear and clean 1 of the 2 work tops not done today
water and feed plants
Wash up in the morning and again in the evening for tea things
sort out orders for almost freebies from GW magazine - have got the cheques sorted but need to put in envelopes and send.

I hope it is ok to go off the normal list but these two areas are so bad that I can't actually see to do the other stuff on the list as the floor and every surface are covered - I am so ashamed but hope that by saying how bad it really is that I will actually do something about it.

Right I am off to bed as I need to get up early to stand any chance of doing some of this before I start work. Time for a last cuppa and more pain killers - oh my life of luxury!!:rotfl:

Me

Nighty nite all, nos da
