Well done Frittered; sort-of sorted is far better than not touched! I did both our desks to within an inch of their lives (where did all the paperclips on mine come from??) and then went on to finish today's list! *stands back in amazement*
(So THAT'S where they all went.)

(marvellous whatv you can put your mind to sometimes)
just found a missing piece of paper I have been searching for!I'm pretty pleased with myself to be honest, if that's not too arrogant!
With my trip to A&E I never thought I was going to get it all done
You know, I think I'll stick around here.I don't have a whole lot of flying to do (it's only my bedroom) but in a few weeks I'll be moving into my student flat and that's probably going to take some work
I've got a long list of frogs - I've got rather a lot to do this summer so it doesn't stop now I've moved back home sadly
So, I'm in for the week! I'll join in when it's bedroom dayand I have a list of frogs I suppose, lots of sorting
1. Sort bedside cabinet
2. Sort bookcase
3. Ebay some shoes (will decide which ones later)
4. Re-sort chests of drawers (a bit more brutally this time)
5. Sort out this desk (uh oh!)
So I'll do one a day I guess. In the mean time I'm going to rest my foot as it's looking even worse0 -

A quick reminder for those with injuries: although the icing part of this routine can be unpleasant, it can bring out the bruising which can speed up recovery. Well, am back from the soggy North and didn't buy too much on this occasion. I'm sure we were the only ones that didn't know Take That were on.... I'll be in and around this week (not necessarily sticking to the rota as we've defrosted and restocked the freezer today - the destocking started before we went away) and disposing of a few choice frogs along the way.

as some of you are aware my Dd has been having trouble at school
so on friday, after the abuse from the mother on thursday, i recieved a phone call from school saying that they had had my Dd in the office because the girl who is bullying my Dd has recieved a threatening message on facebook telling them to leave my Dd alone my Dd goes to army cadets and has been talking to a much older girl who was trying to help Dd apparently she did send a message she states it wasnt treatening but the respose she recieved was very abusive weve asked the girl to forward the message but havent recieved it yet im annoyed because the school stated that they could do nothing about facebook but have had my daughter in without proof following a complaint from a girl who has been picking on my daughter at every posssible moment where to go from here im just about at the end of the end of my teather:(:(

Sammie.. I would probably have said 'Well the little cow should leave my daughter alone then and she wouldn't be getting such messages.. not nice when someone does it back is it?' .. But then I am one of the parents who tells the children they shouldn't be someones punch bag and should stand up for themselves because in the real world noone will protect you unless you do it yourself.. and if the school don't llike it.. tough! (They are also told they must never throw the first punch.. so long as they get the last one in
.. that puts them in the wrong.. self defence is way different to bullying)

Sammie - I am just the same as pigpen on that one but know how you feel ... my DD1 was being bullied by a boy in her class and the headteacher did nothing till he hit her on the head with a rock and i threatened to take the school to court for neglecting my daughter's safety ... he settled down but has now been expelled from the school ... at the age of 9! Things don't look great for his future! But my DD2 is a little hellcat and won't take anything from anyone ... she went up to the bully and growled at him .. he fair backed off! Hugs and spoons for you and DD, hope it gets better soon xxx
