    I've moved the glasses into the dresser and started moving food items across. Then the shopping arrived. It was due between 9-10pm, so of course arrived at 10pm.

    I think I ordered the whole shop :o If we do get snowed in for the next month - we won't go hungry! I could barely close the fridge door :rotfl:

    Right, am off to bed now, I'm totally shattered and have to do a week's work in a day tomorrow :eek:

    Hello, well I'm certainly not flying YM - I'm sitting on my 'arris in front of the fire. It's FREEZING here today - brrrrrrr!

    We had a powercut for a few hours today - thanks for that - so tomorrow will be v.busy but then it'll be over for a week or so. I'm back in for 1 day next week, then off til the 4th Jan. Yippeeeeee!!!! :j:j:j
    The moon was amazing driving home this evening. It was very low down - almost on the horizon and HUGE! It was a beautiful golden colour - quite breathtaking...

    Anyway, I bought a plug and a new bulb today and fixed up the dresser. It looks lovely :) I've moved some foodstuffs from one cupboard and arranged in another. It's more ordered now, but there's more to do and I really CBA tonight. I've promised myself I can sit here until 9.30pm, then I MUST do half an hour of tidying.

    The house feels like a tip. There are baskets of washing everywhere that DH did the other day (they don't put themselves away :cool:) and kids "stuff" everywhere too.
    When I get home I just don't have the energy/inclination to do it......bleurgh. But I will :D He's off tomorrow, so promised to sort the house out, good boy :A

    Went to M&S at lunchtime to get my once a year nut roast (and other nibbles :o) and it was mobbed, I'm so glad I got the shopping delivered - for free too :money:

    Hope you've had a good day :)
  • Hi Macgirl, just read the first 2 pages of your diary (its going to take me sometime to catch up with 35 pages worth!) and I just felt compelled to post! My DD2 sounds exactly the same as yours. She is so stubborn its just untrue and same as yours has been like this since the day she was born. I thought second children were supposed to be more laidback, or so I heard!!!

    I keep saying to DH I feel sorry for her husband if she still behaves like this when shes older lol!!! Will be back in about a week when ive finished reading!! x

    I commisurate, though I don't think my little one will be marriage material somehow! I must mention that to DH later, I'm sure he'll have an acerbic comment to make :D
