Afternoon

Just having lunch and cracking on here before Dad comes to help put the caravan away.

I need to get downstairs straight(ish!) for friends that are coming over this evening.

Vanilla the only thing I can add as a suggestion is that you write everything down, your thoughts, feelings and ways of solving the situation (including those that you will/do not necessarily want to go). Make copies for hubby, his parents and the CPN to read so they can get your opinon on it all without interruptions. It might help clarify things for you all and may even throw up other ideas to pursue. I really hope you can sort things out for you all as your health has to be suffering in all this as well. Hugs

As well as completeing the list I scrubbed out the bin, cooked the meatablls that where lingering in the fridge for the dog and made lunch for OH and myself. I also brushed and mopped the hall floor and sorted the hotspot that had built up there.

I've started on the kitchen (walked to the shops this morning then did two wash loads and a bread batch) Bread now rising and the skirting boards, window frame and part of the floor washed. Need to get that area sorted as the new fridge and freezer are due for delivery in the morning and want it respectable as will need the delivery men to take them through the house.

It's amazing how much you can get done. I took VR too and the skirting boards have never been so clean!!

Have spent the last hour in the kitchen diner so will report back on my progress after lunch

Crafty at times he does, he'll always say he's sorry for waking me
and he knows i do a lot for him and he'll even admit himself that he doesn't do much in return.

Thanks AnW'sMum thats a really good idea and i'll certainly give it a go.

Hubby now home and ate the kids for their behaviour. They have now tidied there room and it is spotless. :eek: Livingroom has been done and completely changed about, looks loads better. Grub on now and then i'll get a few jobs done in the garden.
