Morning all

Busy already today as DS3 had orthotic appointment but I still needed to take my friend's child to school. So we cycled to school, DS3 left his stuff there, cycled to the orthtics dept at a local school, cycled home and then walked back to school all in the cold fog.

DS2 off school sick. He got a really nasty bang on the head in school yesterday at playtime, complete accident, and has had tummy ache all week so he is in bed.

I was going shopping for the day but I'm going to stay home and keep an eye on him and catch up on all my paperwork/pc jobs with maybe a bit of flying thrown in.

Done the ironing basket, may have a go at the stuff hanging up later, off to get ready and will catch up with you all later xx

Sorry guys, I'm awol just now with the most horrific cold/flu type thing so I'm off back to bed with a cuppa. Seems to be an awful lot of it about. At least the bedroom looks half way decent!!

Dusty hope your DS is better soon, reading your day so far has worn me out ((hugs))

Been stabbed (flu jab) and quizzed by the GP as he couldn't find why I get it which is the liver issues, had breakfast and about to start on the kitchen - mixed up days I know but it needs doing and the boys bedroom only needs washing bringing out & clean stuff away as it was done this week

HHC turned into an hour, but my living room is very nearly tidy! Decluttered lots of stuff and it is actually starting to look ok :eek:

I made sure I tidied and cleaned the kitchen before I went to bed last night so that looks good too, it's just my sewing table (errr dining table!) that is a state but I will sort that out this afternoon/evening.

I plan on doing the kids room with DD tomorrow as DS is out with my ex then. Plus if my living room is tidy I can move toy boxes into there to sort through.

I cleared the floor in the hall during my HHC, and s&s the bathroom and picked up washing off my bedroom floor, put a load in the WM and made my bed. Just going to finish the living room, have a massive hoover everywhere and sit down for a cup of tea before I pick DD up at 12.30.

I've been cathcing up on admin. Got a good deal on Breakdown cover for my car, but :eek::eek::eek::eek: trying to renew car insurance.

If anyone has any experience adding a 17yo learner to a car insurance policy, I'd really appreciate your input here :A

Going to find some coffee and try and chill

Dusty, hope DS is better soon
