I really don't want to go to work today and deal with any drama dollies... (staff that is, not clients) I'm so not in the mood. Parrots and ibus ahoy, and breakfast I think.
Plus, I'm cheesed off that no-one did the kitchen last night, so it looks like hell again... :mad: Well, stuff it, DH can do it tonight.After work I'm on taxi duty for dd1 and 5 mates who are off to the cinema to celebrate the end of term. I think I'll go in September to celebrate the start of term!

Kids all up and fed and outside. Boys room cleared of dirty washing and i phoned about the kitchen tiles and it should be done in the next couple of weeks.:D
Need to meassure up the hall, front hall and livingroom for the wooden flooring. I don't think i'll do the rooms until the kids are back at school it would be to much with them at home.
Right i better drag hubby out of bed..Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -

Morning All
Just skimmed the last few pages, never got a chance to get on yesterday, was busy and then listing more stuff on ebay, just popped in from work to see if Piggers was still hanging on to squeak. You will know yourself piggers if you were in any danger, I had very bad swollen ankles with DS, couldn’t get shoes on and was getting nagged to go to MW but I knew myself baby was fine, it just instinct I think.
Done sod all last night except list on ebay, hoping to get some done tonight!!
