I'll be glad to see the workbench again in the utility room. :rotfl: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.:j :j0 -
Hi Toots :wave: hope you are behaving

Vanilla~~ I would get on with it, the rooms swop that is, as long as your child /children all have a bed etc and are looked after, then I cannot see who or how they are going to know or complain, and it sounds like it would be a good move all round for your family anyway.Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles

Thanks kazw i think you and toots are right.:D Looks like i need to get a move on decorating the room (don't think she would be happy with thomas the tank engine :rotfl:) plus she has loads of ideas of what she wants.

I'm not doing anywhere near as well as I'd thought, but had a really nice day. My friend thinks the new outfit is lovely and fine for tomorrow. I left DH to keep an eye on DS2 while I went out to finish the shopping.
I found a pair of smart trousers and a nice skirt in the sale at Matalan. a top to go with the trousers (we have an important parents' evening on Thursday) and some new slippers. I also splashed out on a pair of shoes for tomorrow and a cheap bag. Myy shoes and bags are usually black and I didn't have anything to go with dusky pink. Now I have.

I don't often buy new things for myself, so it's been nice.
I've also just done something that was either brave, stupid or plain crazy. DH and I fell out (again) almost 3 weeks ago and we've hardly been talking. Normally I try to sort it out, but not this time. He just asked my if I'm coming out tonight (his way of getting back to normal, but without sorting anything) and I said that I didn't want to. :eek: Not sure what will happen now.
school work
laundry - still waiting for DS1's stuff:mad:; if I don't get it this afternoon he'll have to make do with what he's got.
make beds
HHCs (ideally one in each room - that would be 7, but I won't get much time tomorrow - I'm counting the stairs, as they're full of gibble, but not DS1's room)
[STRIKE]do tea [/STRIKE] just mine left

Good for you MrsChaos. It is very frustrating when things just get swept under the carpet.
OH has a new laptop for his birthday. He is busy getting cross with windows 7 so hopefully he will get fed up enough to swap for my older one

Nice shoes Mrs C
I might take a trip to matalan in the morning cos I could do with the petshop next door.
Had a pleasant enough day, but there just aren't enough hours in the day. I didn't get round to vacuuming or mopping, so i will have to do that first thing.
Going to watch tv for an hour then get to bed. xYesterday is history

Hiya toots :hello: nice to see you. Hope the snow has gone by the time you go home.
Hope your new approach works MrsC - I can see why you got fed up with the 'lets pretend nothing happened' routine.
Vanilla - another vote for what they don't know won't bother them - sounds as if the smaller room without your stuff in it would be better for her anyway. You are going to declutter as you move the stuff aren't you?:p0 -
Thanks for the moral support. Anything can happen now, so I'm trying not to waste time thinking about it.
DS1 is out, DS2 is in bed and I'm just having a sandwich. Wasn't hungry earlier and can't be bothered with the stir-fry now. Not a good weekend in terms of diet, as there will be a party after the christening and I'm not good with buffets... I'm going to have a bath and then get on to work.
school work
laundry - collected, sorted and now WIP
; WM x1 is on and 3 more to go before tomorrow evening
