    Congratulations to Quillion :T

    Congratulations to Jenny :T
    Hugs to Juliejim and Natty

    And hugs to Jojo's minion

    Haven't done anything since I got back from my friend's. DD2's dad came round to see her and we had a chat about her behaviour and my depression.
    We've decided to do a couple of things together as a family this summer which should be good. He also said he'd try to see both DD's more, I won't hold my breath though.

    I've also been looking into booking a family holiday. We haven't been away for a long time and had planned to go away with the boyfriend til he changed his mind last week :( :mad:

    I need to talk it through with the DD's but instead of going camping at the end of August we're go away in October half term and stay in a caravan instead. It'll actually be cheaper :money: and probably warmer and dryer with the way the weathers been lately!!

    This is what I have left on my list -

    Monday ~Crabby kitchen!
    Level One
    EAT 2 FROGS FROM YOUR LIST!!! ..not the easy ones or you'll end up with the hardest ones on Friday!
    Level Two
    Sweep and mop the floor
    Level Three
    Thoroughly clean the fridge

    Extras
    Wash the windows if they need it
    Scrub out the oven

    2 x WM
    Airing cupboard tidied

    I now officially need to get ahead of myself with my tasks...... NDN called with a large bag of plums and an even larger one of greengages, picked from her DD's garden, because we gave her a jar of HM jam a couple of weeks ago.... So, I have some unscheduled jam-making to factor in. I have no space in the freezer, so can't freeze them down to do at a later date. Lol, it was really sweet of her, but I could in all honesty do without the extra work...

    Still, not to worry; Mr LW just drove me to Mr T for a supply of sugar (we got what else had already made its way onto the shopping list too) and he's been up to the loft and fetched some jars down, so all I need to do is find some spare spoons.:o
