Have fluttered not flew but its actually ok as I was so on top yesterday.Just got loads of ironing to do- BOO! I am very very upset today as found out my ex is seeing somebody else. He finished with me 3 months ago after 9 years.We even had a wedding booked. He swears its only a couple of dates but I don't believe him. Last weekend he was saying about us getting some counselling and going from there then i find this out. Feel quite sick. Anyway sorry to go on just needed to vent!! At least i have my beautiful kids. xx

Sockdrawer - well done for staying calm, I doubt I would and my BIL is due a Tongue lashing as he's broken my lawnmower! Grrrr!

Ooops I got my times mixed up, meeting was this morning, I wasn't really in the mood anyway and didn't get my kitchen finished so will plod on in a mo coffee time ..... Need DP to go in the shower so I can get the DW on afterwards but I've told myself not to argue with him when he's tired..... think I will grab a bag for a therapeutic fling instead

Holly that's perfect timing for me - will join you but might not be able to update until later x

He did indeed Dusty!
Just had DH upstairs for lunch, and found out why BIL suddenly went into rant mode so unexpectedly. My DH had been saying to him not quarter of an hour before I came down how hard I'd been working re the cleaning up and how he wanted all of BIL's stuff moved out ASAP including the old bath he's storing in our garage, the landrover top from a landrover BIL had 15 yrs ago as well as some other strange and wonderful gibble, so BIL was on the defensive already! Lol, my timing could have been better! DH was earwigging the conversation while dealing with a customer in the front shop, and couldn't stop giggling at the absurdity of both of us speaking to BIL separately within such a short space of time!

Happy birthday mastermumof5 - hope you have a fab day xx
Natty - big hugs for you.
Socks - yeah....well done for staying calm and getting rid of the first lot of his gibble xx

Just waiting for the piano tuner to arrive. An expense I don't need right now but the piano is sounding duff and as both children and i play it (they play better than me!) it does need to be done. When he gets here the house has to be quiet so going to try and mend some clothes. I don't do sewing so it could be interesting - it's only easy stuff...seams that have come away but I'm tried to do one skirt four times and it's not happening!

Worked all day. The only flying I've done is clean the piano and got my clinic ready for first client in the morning.

Speak to you later xx
