Well, quick update on Dad... They have decided to keep him in hospital over the weekend and are trying to get him a bed at one of the stroke rehab centres near to us so I am pleased about that. Haven't spoken to DSM yet but she sent me a text earlier to tell me.

Thanks again for everybody's support - it really means a lot :A

Awwwww you are all so lovely Thank you - I will pour myself a large glass (or 3) of wine, put the heating up too to help me relax.. And I received a Lush order of lovely bubbly bath things so maybe I will have a long soak too. Children are with their Dad tonight so its a bit of a break, and then i'm working all day tomorrow but my boss is fab and he knows whats going on - we have a busy day which is good - I love my job so it will be a nice distraction... even tho I could happily spend the day in bed

Saying that, its really hard to relax in this dump of a house - can't wait to get it sorted when my friend comes sunday.

You are so very welcome honey.:) Light a few candles in the bathroom, put a bit of music on, add the Lush goodies to the water, sit the large glass of wine on the corner of the bath and just......

CHILL:D

p.s. DON'T FALL ASLEEP AND BURN THE HOUSE DOWN.:eek:

Great news about your dad frugal.
Try and chill and relax.

Did wash my hair and book hairdressers appointment so fed up of cut a knot out of it earleier.
Got long day tommorow at school from 12-6 helping out on pta duty.
Decided to give up trying to get things done today as feel crap.

going to try get in my bed with nice hot water bottle and drink for 7.30-7.45
with todays paper I not had chance to read.
will set sky plus box to record couple of things on tonight.

feel so tired as had late one last night and busy day yesterday.

hubby normally gets home by 9hopefully im asleep by then.

we reviving old toys at moment with new batteries.
only problem is the flipping tmx elmo they now argue over so may have to get the baby her own for xmas.


I thourght they forcast snow but points west dident mention snow so not sure.
hubbys working tommorow , off sunday but hes out all day with his son still think its mean that he does not want his sister to come.

Somebody I kind of know at school has clothing bundle for me.
bit shocked turns out another mum I know has been telling everyone our news not sure im overly happy im quite discrete me and dont like to make song and dance of it.
Quite looking foward to finding some stuff myself. maybe im being overly unfair.

Good news Frugal, let's hope he gets a bed and starts on the road to recovery soon xxx

Just a short moan from me! Men! :mad: I made a huuuuge apple crumble earlier - one that size normally produces six portions. We had our tea early so left a break before having the crumble, I asked hubby to dish it up and he used different bowls to normal, I thought the portions were a bit big but I wasn't sure - when I went out to the kitchen he'd used the whole thing!!!!! So I now feel very fat and cross about the cost - that was half a pack of butter! I know I shouldn't get worked up about it but I can't help it!

Right...Children in Need on the telly!

Gailey do you nkow the other mumwho has the baby clothes for you? if shes not a friend then it may seem odd. You never know there maybe some lovely stuff!

Had a very busy week and a big week for DS1, hes done his first after school club and finally went to a freinds house to play for an hour after work. he and DS2 hhavent been away from us, we have such large families but no one babysits. Which has meant the boys have had a little seperation anxiety, but he loved going to his friends and ben came here for tea and we have another friend coming next tuesday!

Ds2 has also had a big week, he went to the toilet for the first time in school and got a sticker!

Very cold here again today and weve been charged from the bank for going over the overdraft again so next week when OH gets paid were going back to drawing out cash once a week and when its gone its gone.

Take care everyone xx

v8monkeyboy congrats on the job offers

frugal I'm glad that they are keeping your dad in over the weekend. Use this weekend as a chance to plan your actions next week and recharge your batteries.

Went to work first thing and then went home mod morning to find the central heating on heating an empty house. Have now discovered it's set to 17 degrees but on 24 hr setting :mad:. Need to find the instruction book and re set it for am and pm.

If anyone is interested aldi have timer plugs and energy meters in at the moment.

Off to watch children in need with the kids.
