DS2 in dire disgrace. Went out last night with some friends, and texted to say he was staying over with someone I don't know, he doesn't know, not happy. DD interceded on his behalf, but I am still exceedingly cross. He took advantage of the bathroom people being here to sneak past me this morning. I'm locking all his footwear in the boot of my car -possibly his phone, the playstation controller and wallet as well. Unless another cup of coffee mellows me. :cool:
That is soo inventive of you, and I will steal this idea for when mine are teenagers!
Pigpen so sorry to hear about your uncle, and what a sad story.
DD2 hasn't weed on anyone today, so am conisdering that flying!!Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -

HHCx2 is over, and I've done the kitchen except for the floors. The clear-out of the fridge unearthed some veggies in dire need of cooking, and a bowl of chicken stock I made on Monday.... so it looks like chicken and veggie soup needs to happen pretty fast. :cool:
Will do that next, and then finish with the mopping (after I've used my very enthusiastic stick blender:D:D)
Good to be flying again - it's so much more purposeful this way.
