Hi mummy,
I remember when we first started having our shopping delivered when the kids were little, they were so excited to see the van coming down the road and they couldn't wait to help........you'd of thought they were starving!
We haven't been as organised in the morning this week, normally get everything ready the night before but not last night......this morning i had to put 2 loads of washing out, 'help' DS2 get his cooking stuff ready, sort the dog out, the dishwasher hadn't been put on so DS3's favourite bowls hadn't been washed....cue a meltdown, do the packed lunches and for some bizarre reason decided I'd straighten my hair.....I was exhausted before i got to work.:rotfl:

I love getting up before the kids in a morning, quiet cuppa, get on with a few jobs before all hell breaks loose for the day, bliss.
Hope DD enjoyed marital arts.0 -

Afternoon Diary,
Well its been an eventful time here since I last posted!!
Got home yesterday, had tea etc. By 8pm the Mr A order still wasnt here... q a quick call to them... they had only gone and cancelled my order !!!!!! but not told me :mad:. Apparently they sent a text but I didnt receive one. I think I may have been charged for the order aswell as theres £91 missing from my available balance. If I have to ring them next week they are not going to know whats hit them!! So after giving the guy on the phone the biggest b*llocking ever I took the customer service address to send them a letter next week.
So quickly jumped on Mr T's website, luckily there were slots for 9-11am so I reserved a slot, then flew to Mr T's express for petrol and milk! Whilst I was in there they had loads of bargains on cleaning stuff. I bought 2 x flash with febreze, 2 x 500ml lenor, bathroom cleaner, kitchen cleaner and a massive bottle of bleach for just less than £4!!!
Came back and completed my order and flopped into bed at 10.30!
Just before 1am DD2 came in throwing up all over our bedroom carpet :eek:. DH shot out of bed and got her into the bathroom but its was all over the place! We got sorted flopped back into bed and then she was in at 6am doing the same again! Shes not been sick since 8am and shes had some toast and fingers crossed kept it down. We were supposed to go to a party today but cant now! Its also safe to say I feel like ive been hit by a bus with tiredness haha!!!!
Mr T's brought my shopping without a hitch and 9.30am and then I popped out for more cleaning stuff from Mr T's express :rotfl:. It was the same girl serving, I bet she thinks ive got OCD or sommat!!! I might even pop back in for more yet haha!!!! The lenor smells gorgeous on the clothes, never had the yellow one before!
Then I popped to the butchers and spent £31.40 on a topside joint, whole chicken, 6 chicken breasts, 2 lots of 8 sausages and 2 lots of mince.
So were going out tonight, every time we plan to go out DD2 is poorly! My dad will still come and babysit and shes looking forward to grandad cuddles. Got a 30th birthday which we will pop in for an hour and then we are getting some food on the way home.
I think everyone loves payday :rotfl:. DFW DH's is on Tuesday too so double yay!!!!
Think thats all from me! Shattered.com!!! xxMummytogirls x0 -
Oh no that's terrible service from asda, hope you manage to get the missing money sorted soon, did they give you a reason for cancelling?
Sorry to hear DD isn't well, hopefully she is past the worst of it if she has kept the toast down and just needs to rest, bless her.0 -
No but this guy was based in South Africa so couldnt really grasp what he was on about anyway :cool:! Bad really considering the head office is down the road in Leeds!
DDs just in the bath as I could smell sick in her hair :cool:! She seems very much back to normal now but will keep her on the dry food diet! xxMummytogirls x0 -
oh poor DD I hope she's feeling much better for school on Monday
. I would also be fuming at asda, that was a royal screw-up on their behalf hey! I hope you get some sort of compensation for that as I bet the last minute slot on tesco was more expensive too!!
Have a lovely time out tonight!xx
