  • mummyslittleboy huge (((hugs))) for you and your family - what a shock for him - just when he thought it was under control - the diabetes will be easily sorted and yes he may have to change a few things but with everything else thats going on in his body it will probably look worse just now - thanks for asking pet I am plodding on!

    have managed quite a few things off my list for today (none off pigpens but that will change later in the week!) but fell asleep in the late pm and ddint wake up until the carer came in so it was beans in toast for tea!!!! must be better organised from tomorrow.
    need to go finish wrapping ebay stuff - will be back to update my list later,

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine

    Only just put the computer on so nowhere near caught up yet. Did some washing today but it was raining this morning and then we went to Slimbridge so it never got hung out today. It's round the radiators now.

    Not much else done, but I am on holiday ;) Just keeping things tidy and still doing all the cooking etc.

    Going to catch up now, hope everyone's OK.

    I've had a mare of a day and DS's has been even worse! We went to the hospital and all the anaesthetic cream had leaked on his arms so when they did his bloods it hurt. Then I hadn't put his cream on exactly the right place for his injection - it was the first time I'd done it - so he had to have it put on again but it was only left on for 1 hour as we had to wait which is the minimum but it really needs to be over 2 for his injection so that really hurt him too. Then tonight his hamster which he bought last week with his birthday money has died.

    Think I shall be going to bed soon to get this day over with!

  • Hiya everyone.

    No Flying done after 1pm because of Exam. I think it went ok. Thank you to everyone who wished me well. House looked lovely when I left it as I managed to declutter the lounge, hoover, dust and plump all the pillows before I went out - its amazing what a bit of avoidance does for the ability to perform chores!

    Cooked a lovely tea when I got home and the girls did the DW - as that is their job. Off to make the bed now - I stripped it earlier in preparation.

    *swear swear swear swear swear swear* about FW (who has been addressed by his Sunday name beginning with C and rhyming with hunt this evening.. jumped up patronising sanctimonious piece of pachyderm dung!) and adolescent daughters... GROOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWLLL!!!!!!!!!!! I am so mad I could bite the postman.. and he ain't a bonny sight!

    I am evil.. worst parent in the world.. not only have I demanded my 16 y/o daughter behave like a human being rather than an alley cat and tell me where she is going and what time she will be home and not lie to me.. I have also.. made the girls pick up ALL their dirty washing and filled a binbag of rubbish (valuable treasures apparently) and binned it.. including the price tag collection of Moomin.. cos we all have a price tag collection don't we!!

    All in all a grand day has been had by all.. I even got to hang up on FW on the phone.. I LOVE doing that is pee's him off sublimely

    Triker sugar rush cake didn't work.. (not that I am complaining :p) they all had a huge slice, I had a mouse and they were all in bed asleep 10 minutes later!
