    I'm back in this week, thanks all.

    Boys bathed and fed so there ready for bed. DD got stripped and she's covered in spots/hives on her front, back, neck and behind the ears. Phoned out of hours and she's to go in at 9. She's a slight temp as well but nothing to bad, i think she's alergic to something or she's starting to come down with something. :(

    Thanks to Triker i think who said about the tesco vouchers, i'd £21 i didn't know about so a couple more pressies got. :D

    Right i'm gonna get something to eat and put the boys to bed, then make a start on the livingroom.
    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.

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
