    So, going to whizz to the shop quick before DS goes to school and then crack on I suppose.

    Hello to all the newbies :wave:

    I need to get a balance this week between spending some quality time with the boys and actually getting the things I want to done. They have only been up for half an hour and they are already bickering :cool:. Might take the edge off their energy with a trip to soft play, which is next door to my favourite kitchen fritter shop TK Maxx....

    WM is on already. Kitchen is a tip so that has priority.

  • CY crawls in - I'm in again!

    OH in foul mood yesterday - to the point when both daughters enquired if he had PMT - and I had had similar thoughts myself.

    In the end he snored through Martin Shaw on the Dambusters on BBC2 (I need a drooling icon here!) and thyen went to bed.

    He snored ALL NIGHT - and then got up and went without saying goodbye!:mad::mad: He won't do anything about his snoring and I am at the end of my tether - all I want is 7 hours sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I would sleep downstairs but he'd wake me at 5 when he gets up!

    Anyway mucked out loads of gibble yesterday - lots of ironing to do today!:eek:

    I have stopped taking the painkillers today as I feel ok, just feeling where the problems have been. Day off today anyway, the plan is if I still have problems I can see the doc on Wednesday before things get busy.

    OH is on half term so not sure how much flying I will do.
