    Todays appointment went well, ds seemed able to understand his anger slightly better, and when he went back to school there was an incident at lunchtime; some bigger boys were playing football and the ball went off the pitch so he kicked it back on for them, but one of them wasn't happy with this as he wanted it, so he flattened ds and scratched his face. Ds realised he was getting angry and controlled it and didn't react and get angry :j :j Woohoo!! Long may it continue!! :D

    Other not so fab bits; today was the day cutie was supposed to be in school but he wasn't; not majorly surprised as he said it was only a maybe, but would have been nice to see him.

    Also been to ww and I only lost half a pound this week :o I was doing well til a couple of days ago and then I lost the plot. Never mind, will try again next week.

    Spends today = £4.30 on ww snacks, £2 on chips for tea, £3 on lunch.

    Still, its another £8.50 for the mortgage pot.

    Well done Tigz, thats a fab loss :T
    Cutie ... I was supposed to be seeing him last monday, he text me on the sunday to say he would have to postpone as his assignment was taking longer than expected but that he thought he was free at the weekend (the one thats gone) ... I replied saying not a problem, give me a call in the week and we'll arrange it for the weekend ... haven't heard from him since :cool: :cool:

    I don't want to text him again, its up to him, and I expect he's busy etc, but its sooo tempting to see if he wants to go to the cinema as theres loads of films I want to see at the moment :o
