    Blind man been and away, new blinds coming in a fortnight. No more DD getting up at first light. Need to shift soon to the bank and then to tyre place, front ones not looking good.

    Morning all

    Not done a lot here et, been chinwagging with Mum and Dad. Off to Mr M's in a mo for supplies. Will call in with flowers for DH and then when I get back will do some dot2dotting before I go up to school for the sex ed presentation to parents. Just need to know what Miss A might ask me about, she knows it all anyway but to be sure to be sure and all that.

    Sorted post.. DS3's new game has arrived so I will have peace for the next few days hopefully!

    Tax credits for next year have arrived.. gone up a fair chunk due to DD1's age.. and will be increased again once Squeak pops so not too horrific.. MUST get DS2's DLA forms sorted though!! I need my mother to write her bit and I can send it off.. but I have been waiting for about 5 weeks for her to do this.. Her head is up her bum at the moment with all that is going on with my uncle, but it is almost urgent!

    I also got a letter about mediation with KH.. I can't see it getting us anywhere but am willing to give it a go I guess.. they said the first meeting can be done without him there so I may do that.. and I am going to ask the older 45 what THEY want too.. I know DD1 doesn't want to feel 'forced' to go.. though I have told her she can go whenever she likes so long as I know where she is going.. it is only up the road really!

    Best go do something!!!

    DD1 just arrived back from her exam.. so she is home until Friday now! One of her teachers rang at 8:15 to remind us about her exam.. AGAIN.. so I got snotty.. We DO have a timetable you know!!! Pee'd me right off.. like I am some kind of imbecile!
