Uh oh. Please please get it sorted though. I lost part of my front tooth (straight into a wall on a water ride) and got a cap which fell off - and another, and another - and after a few my dentist said he wasn't going to bother any more and it was only a year ago that I finally got it redone, properly, as a white filling-type-thing. I lived without part of my front tooth for years and years and when I did get it done I cried for ages cause I was so relieved at not having a 'fang' any more.

Sorry. Rant over.

I am steaming:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: he has special needs and I can't get him to see his dentist until Wednesday. Just checking out how to complain to school.

Pots washed

Kids home from school and grub now on. More phone calls decluttered and more waiting to be done.

Plan after dinner is to get everyone involved with the flying....
DD is to clear the livingroom floor and tidy her room
DS1 is to sort through all the books in his room, bring up washing from there too.
DS2 is to clear the bathroom floor, bring up any other washing.
ME will dust the livingroom and hoover right through.
Hubby can sort his games and hobby stuff.

I'll train them yet.... (insert crazy laugh)

vanilla its like puppy training - simple commands and bags of praise.

Smalls fed and narrowly unstrangled.

Thanks all for the good wishes - interview lasted about 3/4 of an hour so she didn't kick me out straight away and that's coupled with the 15 min phone interview on Friday, she says I will know middle of next week if I've been whittled down to the last 2 so fingers and everything else crossed.
Flying - errmm decluttered loads of sweat and nerves! Though I have s/s'd everywhere as well so looking on the surface pretty good.
Will try up catch better and post more before I forget everything I've read, just a stress head at the mo. Did see on this page that LW is going on hols; hope you have a fab time, that Boddy has been away and piggers has had a nipple removed for some reason - where that shruggy smiley face?!!!
Much love all round especially to toots and LL

Woah! I went on a mission and stuck rigt into the RoD craft room / office / guitar room. It's not finished yet cause i had the kids going round after me pulling things out as quick as i could put them away, but it's started and it's an improvement already!

I have even been making a rough inventory of all my crafting things and where they're located because i feel like they could be organised a lot better, but i can't remember where everything is!

Ooo, and i also found a load of fabric i'd forgotten about so i can use some for making a skirt for DD that i wanted to try and also for her dolly cot bedding. WOOP!
