Good Morning everyone
Off to work soon for a few hours but been very busy getting tea made ready for me and OH just to warm up tonight.
Have to be really organised on Tuesdays as I collect DGD from nursery and keep her overnight.Then take her to nursery again on Wednesday morning before I go to work.
She is only 2 so wants lots of attention and everything else has to wait so we just go with the flow (how OS is that saying?) and tidy up once she's asleep or off the premises. Love her to bits but she makes me remember how much hard work little ones are. Hats off to all you mums who sound so organised and manage to feed your kids so well OS. I seem to remember mainly just throwing food in the general direction of the mayhem and hoping to god it kept them quiet for 10mins.
Dull and dreary here, nice day to sit by the fire and do some sewing but never mind I feel lucky to have a job.
Hope you all have a good day0 -
Morning All,
Only an hour at work this morning, left and got in the car, put my phone on and had a message that my appointment was cancelled, so I just came homeThe boys were shocked to see me, they had the heating up full blast and the PS3 on :rotfl: - OH is still asleep, he got in at 6am.
I have loads of washing to get through and lots of stuff to do but my motivation is gone, I am still quite uncomfortable from this pain in my side, but I think I am using it as an excuse to be lazy
esmf - keep meaning to ask how you got on with your lino?
Be back later, I really need to go do something!!!
Is it someone's birthday today - I have a vague memory of something?

Morning peeps:j:j
Further developments with DD.After demanding the scan money by text on Fri (which I ignored), the weekend was quiet, then she asked my Mum to babysit this Wed night.Mum and me have an agreement that she'll only do it if I can't, so she rang me to check then texted her back saying I was indeed free:oShe rang Mum back and came out with tons of lies about me having a dirty house etc,so Boo can't stay here anymore.Hands up I am not housewife of the year, but it has been good enough for the past two years, while she's been out looking for a bloke at least twice a week while I am up doing night feeds, looking after HER baby:mad::mad::mad:
What makes it worse is Mum has agree to have Boo just this one until we sort things out:mad::mad:I just cannnot see a way forward with this situation at all.I have tried and tried to help her but she is off her head:(
Anyway OS wise am cleaning my "filthy" floors with my new henry mop;)and going to dentist to be crowned:A
Am also doing a veggie curry for tea:p:p
(((huggles))) to all the poorlies n peed offs today, and soz for venting again, but it does help me feel better in a weird way:(:o"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

Candy have a hug, on one hand I think your mother should have stood her ground, but on the other, I can see that she was in a difficult place, and if D falls out with both of you, you'll have no way of checking on her. I hope gran is going to put her straight on the real state of your house when she sees her though? xxxIt's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your windowEvery worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi0

JackieG- I agree with you, Candy you need someone to keep an eye on DD for you and at least you'll know how Boo is doing. I still find it hard to understand how she can treat you like this. (((hugs)))xxx
JackieG - (((hugs))) hope your pain soon eases x x x
