Hi,
I'll join you in the half hour challenge, all I've done so far today is walk the dog and wipe the banisters and skirtings on the stairs. I've got washing to put away and want to dust and vaccuum.0 -
Afternoon ladies

Have done b*gger all today - went to see friends solicitor about being the trustee for the kids money when the huntingdons finally takes her
Have to attend one of their family conferences on Thursday with Banardos - has anyone been to one of these? No one can tell me what to expect. It's making me uber nervous. I dont cope well in situations like that.
Back door seems to be seriously messed up. Spent 20 mins this morning trying desperately to open it, dogs scrambeling to get out and chickens locked in still and no other way to get out. Was thinking I could clamber out the kitchen window to free the chooks, but was thinking I'd have to try to take dogs to MiL's (think she's not talking to me for some reason) and panicking about that too. pushed, pulled, lifted, yanked, jiggled and wiggled. Bruised fingers - but :j DH will have to adjust it when he gets home.

Happy birthday Mrsgnomey and Mummyof5's DS2
Well done on the interview Jinky
Piggers - sticky vibes Sally, I'm probably not the best person to send them though, I'd be super happy for her if it all works out though :T
Hugs and sticks and spoons all round. And fat and calorie free coffee and doughnuts, jammy or ring ones with sprinkles
(just because I fancy one
)
Mebbe I'll do a HHC at 4:15? see if I can blast out this list."I know that Prince Charming doesn’t come save me, we save each other and fight back to back against all comers that’s what marriage is to me. Nothing passive, no being carried off on a white steed, give me my own damn horse and lets ride into the sunset side by side." - Laurell K. Hamilton.0 -

I need a rant... sorry.. lol
I picked Tiddles up from school and she had a note saying she had had a cold compress on her knee.. apparently 2 boys from year 2 had grabbed her by the arms and one of them kicked her in the back of the knee so it has a huge red mark and bruising 5 hours later.. she has severe hypermobility so is struggling to walk now with the pain and swelling.. I have given her ibuprofen and hopefully it will help.. I am so angry!!
I demanded the boys parents be told and have given her permission to punch them as hard as possible in the face if they attempt something like this again.. little turds.. DD3 said the head says they aren't allowed to fight.. I said they aren't allowed to be bullies either and self defence is not wrong.. starting a fight is wrong finishing it isn't! I will not have my child used as a punchbag!
I said if the parents have not been made aware by the school I woud gladly do it myself.. (said teacher quickly scuttled off to make sure the parents were told before I got to them.. I wouldn't mind but I was so angry I was being 'nice') You'd think I was a playground brawler the way they carry on sometimes lol..
