Evening :wave:

sun has been shining today but its still been cold!!!

I did not have a NSD today as i went to the hairdressers for the mop recurling :cool: Ad i have to say I LOVE MY HAIRDRESSER :j She only charged me £22 for a perm and trim which lasts, now i don't know how i do this, approx 1 Year :rotfl:So together with my 8 or 12 weekly trim, which is only £11 for 3 of us :rotfl: athe trip for mops cutting has to be the most frugal thing i do :A

Did all my ironing this afternoon and put it all away :A

Took kids to local park, with bikes and mutt, they met up with some of their friends so we stayed for 2 hours and as usual i've been roped into a game of rugby and football Didn't get our tea until 7pm :eek:

Tomorrow i am going to parents to do some planting in the veggie patch .... if dad hasn't done it all


Kids break up tomorrow for 3 weeks :eek: but i will be glad not to have to rush about, although when the chooks come.......

Sub i am confused (easily done:p) do your DCs live with you, having the both of them tomorrow' did it

Hope everyone else has had a good day

Morning folks. Got another day off, woohoo! He's never had them 2 nights before. I'm shocked. :eek:

Have a good day!

Hi,

Im quite new to this so we'll see how it goes.

I used to smoke and used the champix tablets to help me quit, within 3days i couldnt stand the smell of the cigarettes, let alone try and smoke one and so far it will be 3yrs 'clean' in June :j. I didnt have any side effects with the tables and im so pleased that i kicked the habit.

You sound like you are really trying and u will eventually get all sorted with the ex.

Good luck, and i will keep reading to see how you get on.

*Twizzle*

Evening :wave:

School holidays are here, 3 weeks of calm, and no rushing about

Unfortunately i probably won't be on here as much

Good news....the chooks will be here on May 1st :j It was the day i was planning to have a huge hang over :cool: but chooks come first

Hi impulse, stopping smoking has gone out of the window but i am planning on going to smoking clinic at docs and getting champix


Hope everyone has a fab weekend

They both live with me, and their father works away 50% of the year, so I was thrilled for him to have them overnight for 2 days,I had nearly three full days to please myself. He's going to start having them more, so I have more me time. I didn't get much done, just chilled out, revelling in the freedom. :T

Got another flatpack to build, and some stuff to sort, and store away today. Have a nice day folks!

Hi all x

Sub i understand now

Wonderful day today Picked DCs up from their dads, cut both lawns, swept all the drive and then went to field with mut, kids, bikes and football :A
I am so tired i cant move so i thought i would come on here and give you a quick update

tea was yummy ... southern fried chicken from Mr Bugs (must find a recipe for the coating), wedges, salad and HM potato salad.

At 8.30pm we were stood in garden watching bats flying about!!! DCs though it was fantastic ...so easily pleased and FREE.....my 2 would not have got that excited over going to the cinema, i can tell you.....guess what we'll be doing every night for the next couple of weeks - Bat Watch

Enjoy tomorrow x

Morning Peeps :wave:

Monday - friend came for the day from where we used to live, one of her sons is DSs best friend, we had a lovely day

And then after tea the kids were awful :mad: sometimes i wonder why i bother trying to do nice things with them :mad: Consequently they were in bed at 8pm no story, no bat watch :mad:

Tuesday - must have hit home because they were lovely Rang Bertie in the afternoon, we seem to have crossed wires so we ahve sorted our selves out :rotfl:Think we have both been feeling a bit out of sorts, so i invited her and kids to come for river/canal bank walk Realy enjoyed it.....its nice to have some adult conversation

Kids have said they want a BBQ on sunday and Bertie has invited herself and kids, i'm letting them join us so the costs will be split :rotfl:

We have also arranged to go to Yorkshire Sculpture Park next Tuesday, its free apart form he parking, we will be a taking a picnic so minimal costs and the DCs have been banned from entering the most expensive gift shop in Yorkshire

Homemade bagel (reduced 35p) pizza last night, we all made our own and i can report that they were scrummy, could have done with some HM wedges to fill us up a bit more tho x

Gotta play mario cart now :eek:

Enjoy the golden orb
