    Happy Birthday Lady Liberty.

    I'm not doing very good. My head is all over the place. I was fine yesterday until I went to Mr T then I sort of lost the plot (and forgot to buy most of the essentials). I texted DH and he rushed home from work to look after me. I have to carry on as normal but I just feel crushed. DS3 has his birthday party tomorrow and I don't know how I am going to get through it. TF is organising the funeral and hasn't consulted anyone. He's booked it for 10am in a place an hour and 15 minutes away from here. I will have to leave home at 8.15. This causes me enormous problems with getting DS3 to school and finding someone to look after DD2 before she goes to nursery at 1pm. It's on the only day that my wonderful MIL is unavailable.

    I need to get to M&S to buy DS a birthday cake. DD2 is still very poorly so I won't bake one with germs in the house. If I do get to M&S I will take advantage of the Dinner for 10 offer (thanks MSE email for tipping me off)

    Really need to tackle the ironing and the bathrooms definately need doing.

    I would like to draw the attention of the BG's to a possible impostor who has taken over Pigpen's ID...

    Morning all

    washing out

    I am VERY pleased because my insurance cashback on quidco has tracked...last year I SHOULD have had £70 from a firm beginning with Z who offered fabntastic cashback but would not (and DO NOT) accept queries if it didn't track and it didn't.
    So this year I found the best deal I could and cashback was a bonus

    WM x 1 on line x2 in Wm and now worrying it all might turn grey...

    Mumto5 - hugs, times like this always cause rifts. One moment at a time sweetie.

    Going to give the AGA a bit of a clean.
