Morning all,.
I haven't caught up with the thread so i hope all is well.
Tuesday i did booger all except dailies, yesterday the whole house had a quick going over ( actually not quick it took hours :cool: ). Ds1 is being assessed for possibly Aspergers and they came to do a home visit hense the whole house needed a bit of a tidy. They think it's more of an anxiety, shyness thing rather than aspergers though although they won't confirm just yet. He said there's lots of ways to help with that so i'm feeling a little more positive.
I'll see what i can cross off my lists. Today i need to post the books, clean out the rabbits and do some washing and ironing. Anyting else will be a bonus.
