A slow start this morning, with a bit of cba and falling out with the world. At least I've emptied the DW, put towel wash on, recyling bins out and froze bread/meat we won't use in time. Time for a late breakfast now and a HHC in the kitchen to cross some of the easy jobs off. 11-11.30 anyone?
Hi natty - sorry you're having a rough time. Hope things get back on an even keel soon. Have you got your new organised mum stuff yet? I've gone for the same calendar, but the bigger diary and have also ordered a kid's calendar for DS2. I think we'll need to clear the DR table to sort it out, though.0 -
Morning everyone. Busy day today. DD1 has agreed to go shopping for new work clothes so we are going on the way to see DD2's psychotherapist (still trying to sort out the hair pulling). Then on the way back I have to drop her at Maccie D's for work.
DS1 has his work trial shift tonight. It would be great if he got the job as well. All we now need to sort out is DD1's BF who is more than a tad workshy.
Soappie - Get through it vibes heading your way.
Winchelsea - Hope the shingles doesn't pull you down too much. Your DGD is a lucky girl to have such a nice day out and about seeing the sights with you.
I see alot of you were up with the larks this morning. I woke early but stayed in bed trying unsuccessfully to get back to sleep.
Going to crack on with my lists.
