I'm just having a coffee and then i'll get showered and dressed. I need to go into town to the market and PO. We may go to the castle or the big park while we're there. I must remember my shopping is coming between 2 & 4pm.

Back from taking the kids and I haven't got to pick them up as my mum's going to do it. I have toothache - well I've had toothache off and on for a while but I know it's in the tooth that is being filled next Wednesday so I've just been taking painkillers if required. However this morning it's not going off - the painkillers have lasted about 30 mins so I don't know whether to ring the dentist - I was only there yesterday with DS as his tooth had broken - or whether to see if I can perservere with it.

Anyway on a brighter note I paid off my TSB loan yesterday so that's one thing out of the way!:j

HHC anyone 10.30 - 11?

juliejim

On my own then? Off I go!

I hate theme parks. I don't like rides. I don't like queues. Going strictly for the kids benefit hence why we are going to Chatsworth on the last day to de-theme.

Are you sure we're not twins??;) It's been an ongoing argument for years as I won't go to anything that's 'artificial'. The kids were seriously considering reporting me to Social Services for gross neglect...:cool:

I did take them to Legoland years ago.... happily my sister's husband and her two SIL's love theme parks, so I delegated.

I have never taken any of mine to theme parks.. I hate them.. they are dangerous, crowded, noisy and evil... I haven't taken them to the park for 2 years.. since Tiddles started nursery.. we would spent mornings in the park before then and afternoons she would nap

I'm not moving.. I have chronic heartburn and have drank a gallon of gaviscon already this morning and it isn't helping!

need to finish 2 Squeak cardies today so that is me busy

Morning all,

Got no flying done yesterday at all but we did take the kids to peter pans adventure place. Rhys loved the toddler end, me and hubby came home tired and kids came home hyper. They didn't go to bed until near 1 this morning. :mad:
DS1 got up at 3am crying, he had fallen down the bunk bed. How i don't know because he doesn't sleep on the bunk beds anymore.
Any way i best get on with the lists, sparky is coming some evening this week to finish the kitchen and hopefully start the boys room.

I've skim read so far but not much has went in so big hugs, congrats and get well soon's.

Morning, Hello to the Newbies.

DW emptied and kitchen is still looking nice and tidy just need to give the bathroom a quick S+S and I am done will take post to post office on way to meet my friend.

Need to check the weather for tomorrow and thursday and see which one is best for taking kids to legoland, This is the first time I have ever taken them to a theme park as I don't like them but these tickets were free;) Also need to get petrol,cook a shephards pie and hopefully that is it apart from relaxing and enjoying the next couple of days.

Morning everyone

I'm going to concentrate on the kitchen this week - it would be soooo nice to have one room that doesn't suffer from CHAOS, but it's going to take time.

Came home from hols to find an e-mail saying that DS had used nearly a month's Broadband in 6 days:eek: so he's now being 'rationed' and I'm getting flylady withdrawal symptoms - hence this quick visit.
