  • Hi mummy, your sounding very chipper at the minute :D:D.

    Well done on fixing the school coat and cardi, My 2 will need new winter coats, but not buying them yet they can go back to school in their lightweight rainmacs which they have hardly worn:D.

    9 days until you finish work, must be a good feeling!

    I swear I should have been blonde. :o:o:o Obviously I mis-read and thought you were talking about the fish Sturgeon :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I was expecting to find all sorts of recipes for it and car sickness......thankfully i re-read your post before the google search. That could have been interesting though :D:rotfl:

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Hahahahahaha! I laughed out loud at this! We were never sure if it was pronounced stujeron (like in sturgeon) or stugeron (like in sugar).

    I didn't catch the benefits programme but I recorded it.

    The price of passports now are ridiculous aren't they?

    Morning Diary,

    This is my first day off over the summer where we are actually not rushing off somewhere! Kids are just watching TV and ive promised them to go to a soft play centre later on so il enjoy a bit of peace in there!!!
    The weather is very overcast today but im hopeful it will brighten up later on as ive got some washing to peg out!!!

    Pennywise, I hadnt realised it and probably shouldnt be with the amount ive got on ha!! Roll on next Friday... my last day at work!

    Nothing much else to report, want to take it easy today as everything is catching up with me xx

    I recorded the second 1949 Benefits programme but need to download the first as it looked interesting.

    I hope you are enjoying some time off with the kids. I feel like I am pulling my girls from pillar to post this holidays. We had a lovely weekend with them last week so this weekend is a bit of a lazier one. I have next friday off so have a long weekend camping which will be great!

    Morning All,

    Hope youre all well!!

    Had a chilled out kind of weekend here! Pottered round both days and DH not been well so had him lazing about and groaning!! Cleaned the whole house yesterday and it took me hours but even so it was still on the 'basics'. This is my last week at work for a few weeks so I am going to make it my mission to get this house back in ship shape and keep up to it!!

    Benefits programme reminder for tonight peeps haha!!!!

    OF, this is the first year ive not pulled the kids from pillar to post! By the time they go back they will have had nearly 7 weeks off and they will have spent 3 days at MIL, 1 day at my mums, 4 days at the childminder and the rest either with me on holiday or with me working from home! Not bad really considering!

    So its not a bad day here, ive already got a load of washing out and a load in the washer.

    Payday on Friday... woohoo best day ever ha!!!!

    Best get on, hope everyones ok xx

    Morning Diary,

    Last working from home day for me today!!! Finish with them tomorrow, cant believe how fast its all gone to be honest. Got a few bits that I need to do today and then handing over to the new person tomorrow.

    So today im going to take the kids to the park at lunch time and then they can make some apple and blackberry crumbles with the blackberries they picked with my mum yesterday. That will keep them busy and generally if I do something like that with them, they keep off my back whilst I get on then!!! Im so glad I can work from home but it really is hard with them here.

    Its a lovely day here and ive pegged out already and going to get another load in aswell.

    Thats all from me! Hope everyones ok xx
