    Thanks to all who keep the thread going for us, I am in again this week, I decided last thursday to do a bit of gardening and got carried away 4 hours later my back went :mad: all the DR could say was let this be a warning you have been told to slow down, how on earth can you slow down with 3 kids to look after on the plus side girls have been great and have done there bedroom even changed their bedding:D and found the lost DSI !! So thats a relief!

    Big hugs to those that need them hope everyone is well welcome to those returning or new.

  • Morning!

    Still loads of coursework...so I might stick a couple of DW, WM and TD loads in, but much more than that is rather unlikely again....
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Good morning,

    Well after my absence I now have to give this a go again.

    My holiday was nice, apart from the weather but it was nice seeing my family again and catching up with old friends. But whilst away things happened at home. It started with a call from DD1's tutor from college asking why she has not been in. Well after discussions with DD1 she has told me that she is pregnant and moving in with her bf and his parents! She is 16 (almost 17) so as you can guess I am totally devastated and disappointed.

    So when I got back the house was emptied of her stuff and she wouldn't speak to me. She finally came round yesterday for a chat. At least it has cleared the air but I am still upset that she has decided to move out. She is keeping the baby, which is ok but I hope that she will pick up her studies after the baby is born. At least she has agreed to do her exams. Sorry about my ramblings, my head is all over the place at the moment.

    I hope everyone is well, hugs to all that need it!
