DS has been given deployment dates of the 5th, 10th and now the 18th of April, wish they’d make their minds up though he and DH says he will probably only get 48 hours notice practically as of now as they have done all their training. :sad:It’s his birthday tomorrow can’t believe I will have a 22 year old son!

i'm terrible, i just create more mess than anything else
. oo its nearly dry, think i'll be doing another coat shortly.
Had a nightmare this morning, DS2 (leto) managed to trap himself in the upstairs toilet this morning. I ended up having to talk him into getting the vase off the window ledge, climb on top of the toilet and open the bathroom window. Its a good job theres a ledge outside the bathroom window and his room. So there i am in the rain catching a 6 yr old as he is climbing out of the toilet window. I swear i was more scared than he was. DS1 (brandon) my little hero then decides i'm too scared to go out on the ledge so he dives out jumps into the other open window and un-jams the door. Comes out and goes " i've done it mam!". So the rule of no locked doors is back in force.
We had that a few years ago when DD got stuck in bathroom as lock had broken! It was about 10pm and she kept knocking on floor to get our attention then OH had to get ladder for her to climb out window and down ladder. Friend managed to do the reverse the next day and get door unlocked. I now have fear all that the other handles/locks may go too!!!!0 -

Triker a good idea but then you will have all these boxes to sort out? or have i missed something? xx
