All running about done here and we'd only got back 10 mins and the sparky arrived. We have a tracked kitchen....:j:j:j
Just need to fill with plaster tomorrow and start saving for the tiles.:D

My sister went for her interview and should know in a few days. They also viewed the house and should know by tonight. They went to the housing people who said there was nothing they could do because they don't have children, what a load of rubbish so i'll go in with her tomorrow.:mad:

Kitchen has been truely dusted and dinner is now on, then kids to bed and i'll head to bed then too.

Hi ladies

just me and DD for tea tonight so will get something for us in a bit.

Read most of the thread at work so cant remember much so apologies but I do recall was it Jojo recalling a certain gentleman. Have a bit of fun, youre entitled to have a life and a few light hearted moments wont hurt you. If you go in with the right attitude you cant go wrong. Go enjoy yourself - when I left my ex and got with my chap I said if I get 2 years out of it, it will have been worth it, we're still here 14 years later

Hugs, welcomes wherever appropriate

Vanilla keeping my paws crossed that your sister can get a house sorted out soon, and a job also - what an awful worry!

Bit of a mad day, ended up buying myself an iPad as a treat, feel a little guilty which I know is daft but not often I get something for me. I had a voucher so go kids Avatar with it so they're going to watch that while I play with my new toy

Oh bonus was DP told them they had to help do the living room to able to watch it

Hope you've all had a good day

'but you're on full EMA, you're an Aim Higher student - you are entitled to full fees and a maintenance grant, so you probably won't have to pay anything anyway and the Uni might even give you a bursary too - check it out when you're back at college'.

Decided had better go an read a bit more about this (DD is an Aim Higher student - wish DS was - don't know why he isn't) but clearly there are more advantages than the free trips. Chances are they'll both be entitled to full EMA too - because they are disadvantaged as the children of a single parent...

Now why would anybody be out in the rain under a brolly drinking coffee OR was it me on playground duty by any chance?

Okay, I've done some flying today - kitchen done!!:D:D:D:starmod:

If I have a sudden burst of energy, I may do the living room. The sun's come out, so I may go to the allotment instead.

I've also decluttered DS2 to school for English exam - he wasn't at all happy about yesterday's Maths Higher, said there was loads that he couldn't do - sigh.

I've done the homework booklet for Year 8 - in a break from the textbook, I chose to do half on The World Cup, and half on holidays. I have so many resources for both, I could do half of next year's lessons as well...

Love and hugs, especially for toots, lady-liberty and diva.

he wasn't the only one DD2 hated it - and yet her mates thought it was great - which made her feel worse!
