I need to gloat..

I just got a copy of the court order through which signs the house over to me.. bye bye KH... AND as part of the order it states I will not pursue him for maintenance for the children.. however.. that order has been backdated to April 2010... so instead of it being the 2 years we agreed it is 10.5 months from now! I am so pleased.. I may go find the judge who signed it and kiss him! he hasn't paid anything anyway so it isn't like it will make any difference at the moment.. but guess what I'm doing on 27th April next year!!!!

I need to sort a will out now.. and discuss with OH what he would want to do.. obviously the 2 babies would go with him if I croaked.. but I am thinking of leaving this house to this lot and stating it is up to them if they let KH move back in to look after them until Tiddles reaches 16.. and it is either to be sold and shared between the 10 children at that point or rented out to provide them all with an investment for the future..

I need to think lots about this one I feel!

Arrrgh ladies, I need some help.

I am attempting my first quiche tonight. I normally make my own pastry but as I wanted to save time, I've bought some ready-made stuff. However, it's puff pastry and not shortcrust - can I still use it? Do I need to bake it first? Can you help me resuce dinner?!

If you usually make your own, quickly make some and use the puff for something else or freeze it.

Hoovered all of downstairs

Applied for free family railcard

I'm stopping for some much needed lunch and then i'll get back to it.

dancemum

Bed is now made.Bathroom spick & span. Last load in TD. Lunch decluttered and cleared away. Downstairs Henried.

Frog needs to be eaten this afternoon it is sitting looking at me. I need to ring Shed place to chase up why I haven't heard from the shed base man. My back up plan has just gone belly up as my alternative business is no longer trading.
