Good evening everyone.
DH is away in Manchester of all places! DD2 has thrown a temperature and is in our bed. She got hit in the face today by a PC at the end of school today and has gone downhill fast. this is going to cause me problems as I don't have a scrap of food in the house and nobody is around to look after her while I nip to Mr T.
I worked this morning then came home and tackled the kitchen, DH had made sausages and bubble and squeak and the grill pan was festering nicely in the oven. I've broken open a new scourer and it's now gleaming. I'll be home all day tomorrow so will tackle both lists.
After school I had to go and sign the paperwork for my new car and went for my first physio appt for my bad leg - more exercises! There isn't enough hours in the day.
I also listed 19 items on a Easy Beans Auction Yeah site:j0 -

Be blessed you don't have to pack for 4 (DH does his own and is a top packer)

Just having a well earned glass of Isla negra and some corn chips.got the whole thing done and dusted in under an hour, but then no one knows what's going on with next year's budgets, so there wasn't much point in extending the meeting (finance committee)
Need some advice...LO has never been to Nursery and turns 5 in October...will the education board or someone contact me about his school admission????....will be putting it off till the last minute possible but just concerned no one has been in touch yet ?????
I've had a bath, CBA to do any work... just need to check up on the DW, then log off, pack the laptop and hope I haven't forgotten anything vital!0 -

MiL coming round just after nine this morning - Oh joy! So I need to get a wriggle on :eek:
Tea dishes still out and dogs trashed the lounge.
Luckily I seem to be okay this morning??
