    Sockdrawer, i think the same. Nothing is said unless i'm in about something.
    liloandstitch all she kept saying yesterday was how serious it is yet it took her so long to mention it. Then the whole if you don't take him to GP, SS would be called.

    It was the same last year and she always say's there is no bullying going on in her school. That DD and this other girl have strong personality(sp) and that DD has her own issues to deal with (hearing and her balance). It's always put on DD. :mad:

    Right best keep going with the livingroom, time to lift 101 toys. :rotfl:
    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.

    Morning all

    Haven't looked at the lists but I've done all the bedrooms today. Two loads of washing out on the line, it rained overnight and it's cloudy now but trying to be bright so I hope it will dry.

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

    - just go in with a black bag and try to get rid of anything that's absolute rubbish first then look round and see what you can do next. You won't get it perfect in one go, but every little helps.

    Don't cry :( just baby steps at a time. I always find in a room that is disaster cleaning the window and move things of the window sil makes a big difference.

    Thank you Pollybear I'm off to do just that

    Vanilla I was thinking of tipping everything onto my bed, at least the floors surfaces were clear. Cleaning them then start the put back?

    Problem with my room is its dingy, wallpaper torn, differnent colour walls, rug I was given and still landdlords orange curtains up. I hate that room. Need to get some pride somehow
