How is your mum doing benben? x0

She's doing okay thanks Daisy, she's not really improved anymore, her eyesight is still the same and she's having to write tonnes of lists as her memory is like a goldfish
but overall we shouldn't complain, it could have been so much worse. It has shown me how reliant I am on her for helping with ds though, I must sort out a proper babysitter now, I do have a couple of wonderful friends who are always happy to help out but I don't want to put on them too much, so depending on how things go with cutie at the weekend then hopefully I may have some more evenings out lines up so will need to sort a babysitter out

He text me last night to say hi, how about meeting up on sunday?
I replied saying yep, sounds good, what time and where?
and he hasn't replied yet :cool: :cool:
Never mind, we'll see what today brings ...
We're off to ds Christmas fayre at school in an hour or so, I have already todied up a bit, the dishwasher and washing machine are doing their respective things, the rubbish has been removed from all rooms, all washing is in a pile, as is the ironing, most stuff is back in its correct place other than some of ds toys. When we get back later I will start the cleaning marathon
Other than that I need to do some banking stuff today, return library books, drop some money in to my sisters for the boys xmas pressies, food shop, write christmas cards .... the list just goes on and on :cool:Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Haven't heard back from him still, hmm, am very confused by this one ... at school he always seems pleased to see me and tries to chat (although its almost impossible to chat at school for longer than 15 seconds :cool:), he says he wants to go for a drink, said he wants to go tomorrow but he's a nightmare at pinning down to making arrangements
I'm not texting him again, hopefully he'll reply tonight but I will make it clear tomorrow that I don't do faffing
Been to see mum and dad today, mum was quite bright but dad was like a zombie todayDs christmas fayre was the usual waste of time, but its been done for another year ... The flat is getting better, the lounge is clean and tidy, the kitchen is clean and tidy (except for the floor), the last pile of washing is in the machine, dishwasher is empty, my bedroom is clean and tidy.
Still to go ... bathroom is tidy but needs a clean, guinea pigs need cleaning, ds bedroom needs tidying and cleaning, rubbish needs to go out, ironing needs doing, etc etc etc ...Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
