    Did anyone see Eastenders last night? I am not anti-abortion but i was quite peed off at how easy they made it look. Lucy was given her tablet and sent home with period pain. No wonder young girls think it's not a big deal.

    Its great now that L walks to school with friends so I don't have to deal with the pretend niceness of the Mums. We don't have chavvy mums at our school, they're all older and like to think they're posh. :rotfl:

    Before L started school, I was new to the area so drove round the local schools in the morning and at home times to check out the state of the parents. The nearest school to us was a definate nono - that is the proper chav school with parents in trackies and pj's. :rotfl:
    :rotfl:The school we want for Chris is the one with the most kids being picked up in cars - that's what made me look at it at first :rotfl:
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    :eek: need to get black blinds then ASAP!! grr, stupid clocks. The birds were already chirping and there was light around the curtains at 5am this morning and Aless was not a happy camper about being awake to see it :o:o

    desperately need to hoover & sweep the kitchen but just have zero motivation to do so. I can't even hope that DH does it because he's so bad at hoovering I just have to go back after him and do it again. Been having lots of CBA days this week - must be the lack of sleep. However it's gorgeously sunny outside...hmmm maybe the pound shop near the GP still has chocolate-covered Oreos with which I can cheer myself up? Screw being fat :(

    My Debt Free Diary (Link)
  • Afternoon all. I didn't get told off by the dentist and Izzy was very good - sat on my lap all quiet and watched what was going on. She wouldn't let the dentist look at her teeth, but never mind!

    She has been making me laugh this morning - she keeps helping herself to things form the kitchen cupboard - just brought me a box of chocolate fingers to open for her (they are now on a shelf out of her reach :rotfl:Mummy 1 baby 0). She managed to shut the stair gate in the kitchen door with her on one side and her toy on the other. And now she has stollen my drink. luckily it is only very weak squash, otherwise there would be a sticky carpet/child in our near future ;)

    Found out there are new baby lambs up at the allotments (born today!) so we will have to go see them at the weekend :)

    Your school gate stories have made me laugh. It will seem like 5 mins has gone past before I'm sharing my own with you I'm sure.
