    Plan for the rest of the week:
    Tue phone dentist
    [STRIKE]buy eggs[/STRIKE]
    Wed wrap presents and write card for DS2
    [STRIKE]DW[/STRIKE]
    pay NN's son for gameboy
    finish 'to do' list for work, 'cos I'm losing the plot!
    return other gameboy to shop in M'hall - glad DS1 tried it first! :mad:
    make cake
    [STRIKE]Jack Fulton shop[/STRIKE] did Mr M's instead
    [STRIKE]take all food stuff to MIL's[/STRIKE]
    phone zoo
    Thu DS2's birthday :j
    former boss' leaving do after work (will show my face to be
    supportive)
    birthday tea at MIL's
    packing list for holiday
    get ready for lesson observation
    Fri swimming lesson with DS2
    pack
    explain to NN's son about feeding the cat

    Struggling tonight again - lots of work to do and I'm already dog tired. Feeling like the beginning of a head cold, too. I don't want to be ill while we're away.
    OH has gone out in a huff - same old! I need to persuade him to go to M'hall, though, to take the game boy back. Otherwise the boys will be squabbling all week over whose turn it is.

    No time to catch up, so please have hugs, spoons and sticks as needed. I can't wait for the weekend, especially when we're in the car on Saturday morning and I can get to sleep. Best thing about OH coming along is that I don't have to drive. :o
