    Morning all

    Rushed off my feet his week with last week of term and holiday prep.

    Managing to keep up with my dailies and laundry but that will be about it for most of the summer.

    DS1 being enlisted to help today (his laptop has been removed and the PS3 controllers to aid in this operation).

    HHG now to do a few bits that have to be done before we are away and then a dash to lidl/recycling/prescription/scrap store deposit before sports day!

    Vanilla - hugs sweetie

    PenPen have a great day

    Toots love for you too and hope next week goes as planned x

    Awwww -Pigpen- Hugs.

    No - I won't swap, although there have been some odd moments. I put pudding on the table yesterday (choice of trifle or cheesecake (leftover from a BBQ!!)) and the Italian shot upstairs and came back with biscuits from his room which he proceded to eat. Dh was not amused.

    it tipped it down here last night so my laundry went in the TD.. I do have the 3 towels on the line though which should be about dry by now.. it is fairly windy.. each ones has double the number of pegs to keep it on the line!!.. Not that it will do any good if it is too windy the small cats leap up them and swing until they drag them off the line!!

    piggers -thats bad -I am sure you will have sorted him out - I hope you didnt get hurt (physically)

    No more than being head butted in the face would normally hurt.. he was less impressed when I instinctively did it straight back (oops..) and launched into a tirade of eardrum splitting verbal abuse! He was also sent to bed without dinner!!! and is not permitted to even look at any of the rest of us until he has apologised profusely and grovelled forgiveness... even then I won't speak to him until I am good and ready!!!

    He is getting an ear bending from KH tonight after school and if he even THINKS about touching my girls again he is going to be hauled over coals to the police station..

    The problem being he is physically 14 but he has a 2 year development delay so is like having a huge 12 year old on the rampage which I will not tolerate..

    I've set my mother on him too now.. and will set DS1 on him when I next see him.. I don't know whether to ring the school as well.. it is all boys BUT he had a detention yesterday for hitting a year 7 (he is year 9) but i don't know the ins and outs of that incident.. so I dunno...

    Shop has rang to say Tiddles shoes are there for picking up so we are going to get those shortly :D .. She might be slightly happier than the average miserable cow tonight then... she was a witch this morning!

    I am REALLY looking forward to them going to KH's this weekend.. I may move house while they are gone so I don't have to have them next week! I can't cope with another week like this one it has been horrendous..

    We did empty DW, WM on, and bathroom all cleaned,Bathmat in machine, just need to defrag laptop which I will let it do while I collect DS from nursery.

    After Education have been I will get the Ironing done and tonight I am going to get all this filing sorted:D

    DD can get her bedroom done and hoover and polish it while they are here.

    Toochoosey how did you get on?
