  • Good afternoon everyone. Hope everyone is ok.

    Not really flying today trying to declutter instead so lots to put on ebay.

    Lunch was meant to be homemade cheese pasties followed by homemade chocolate brownies. The pasties fell apart in the oven and the brownie sank and went hard so sandwiches and digestives all round!

    Triker Just take them out anyway and ring in sick thats what people do at my kid's school;)

    Have got loads done had both DD's helping me and have managed to achieve quite a bit today have also ordered polo shirts and shirts for DD's for school in september so can cross them of my list and will take them into town a week sat and get the rest apart from shoes which I will get closer to them going back.

    Hopefully DS's paedro's will be here this week. His education play worker is coming thursday so will find out if they have approved his funding for one to one at playschool yet.

    Need to do family fund forms as physio want him to have a climbing frame and trampoline at home so will see if they will help fund it.
    They are giving him another 6 weeks physio at the soft play centre which thankfully wont start untill after september as its only a small room and gets so hot in there he wouldn't cope to well with it in this heat.

    Best get a move on might go and tidy garden up a bit.

    ETA Triker mine were refused to as they had only been at there new school's 2 months well thats the reason they gave even though they hadn't had one day of and there aunt had booked them a week at centre parks as thought it would be nice for them to get away it was year me and XH split up and she was hoping it would sheer them up I rang them in sick on the monday never got into trouble for it have a good holiday and dont worry about the school
