Oh dear Pigpen now you've left me wondering what on earth to do! And worrying that you're going to have me working 25% harder for the rest of the week.
Mr and Mrs Dog are apparently worn out already, so that's a temporary bonus.
Dilemmas, dilemmas, where shall I start!Work is not my Hobby0 -
Paperwork done for today and dailies.
Mother coming over later, not looking forward to that as there is yet again some tension, gee I don't know why so my sister is refusing to come which has upset DS3 (just told him she is busy). Really feel like cutting myself off from both of them and I would if it wasn't for the kids.

does anyone know if they still do that free school meal thing these days?
cleaning wise once the kitchen is done i will re mess it with baking then tidy it again.
then, i think catching up with some on demand stuff is on order wilst knitting0 -
Yay lovecrafting - you have done far more than me hunny

I do sympathise Dustykitten - I don't have the greatest relationship with my mother at all
I get on fine when I see her, (twice a year and honestly that is plenty - sounds mean but I genuinely have very good reasons for it) but unfortunately it's surface stuff and I can't honestly trust her 
Off to continue tidying while DS's are de-cluttering dirt and whifty smells from their bodies,lol!

Right Ive done LR's need to crack on with S&Sing the kitchen and bathroom"Let your boat of life be light, pack only what you need- A homely home and simple pleasures,one or two friends worth the name, someone to love and someone who loves you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, as thirst is a dangerous thing" Jerome k.

I love that description.
Now stop being rude about yourself
Flyladies are not stupid - daft, ditsy, eccentric, but not stupid!
The person you were at the time did the best she could at the time and now you are making a fresh start in the best place for help, advice (and the occasional well-aimed fluffy mule)
Several of us will confirm that writing down what you intend to do does help to get you going.0 -
Thank you it turns out i am eligible so i will give the education office a phone tomorow and get them on the list, that will reduce our food bill hopefully. it currently costs £9.50 pp pw plus the little ones dinners at nursery (only one day) it works out at 22.50 so if they are on free dinners, i can do a packed lunch for lilly on a thurday and thats 22.50 i wont need to spend at shopping.0
