Well done on the weightloss Tigz :T I don't blame you at all if you don't want to see us again, its not fair on dd, he was horrible today
He has been quiet but lovely ever since, and when I told him what the consequence was he was even quieter, and then about 20 minutes later said "I think I deserve worse than that, I think we shouldn't go swimming on friday either as I really wanted to do that", so now we're not going swimming either. I'm so so sorry

Ah bless....he may have meltdowns sometimes (and you know the reason for that) but he has the right values.It's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0 -
Ah that shows he knows he was wrong and that he's growing up.

A nsd here today, have been at my aunts all day sorting stuff for Dads book, the rough version is now done, tomorrow I need to stick in bits and organise the proper one. I also need to go and get several photos printed out.
Ds has been lovely all day today, especially as we've been busy and he's had to amuse himself in someone elses house, no whinging whatsoever, if only he could have been like that yesterday too :cool:Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

You've had a very productive half term so far:D And you have some lovely things to finish off the week - evening out and birthday lunch sound good to me:)
Is Sunday your dad's actual birthday and will he get the book then? I bet it looks amazing, you've put lots of work into it, hope you're proud of it:TI really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
PL - haven't heard anything since last week, he did say this week wasn't good, so don't expect to hear anything for a while yet
Pixie - yes, sunday is his birthday, I will give it to him at the meal, I'm really pleased with it so far, still lots of work to go .... The saturday night may not be happening now, Mum was coming here to babysit but had forgotten and has now arranged to collect dad from his home on saturday afternoon so wont be able to come here, ds may go to hers for a couple of hours and I may go along and show my face, but its quite a way to go just for one (non-alcoholic) drink, we'll see
2 loads of washing done so far, beds made, clean washing folded ready for ironing, suppose I ought to get dressed soonMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
