    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I've just had a phone call from the C.I.D about the XH. It seems that my girls now have to be interviewed, which will be done by specially trained officers and recorded on video to be played in the court. I've told the DD's and DD2 didn't want to do it til I explained that if she didn't there was a chance she'd get called to go to court instead.
    I haven't done anything since having my fruit tea apart from have a chat with my best friend on the phone. She called to see if I was ok and confirm meeting at my Dr tomorrow.
    I'm going with DD1 to water her grandparents plants and pick their tomatoes in a bit then back to the list

    I have decided I need to add smaller frogs, these toads are doing me in I need something achievable quicker, some quick wins as I'm getting bogged down. Friends just been able to announce he's going to be a grandad so he's thrilled (daughter famous so had to keep it quiet until OK got their story) Meeting today was the last and rather boring. DS1s senco is working on tweaking his timetable so that's a positive.

    Sat working out bills :( how depressing! I've also updated meter readings, I need to do it more often! Average daily usage is 21 units electric in last 6 weeks which seems quite high but previous 5 months was average of 26 per day so suppose it's a bit better
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Hello

    Struggling to keep up with life at the mo. I do admire you ladies.....you are an inspiration.
    Off now until Thursday, but out at voluntary thing tomorrow afternoon.
    Need to grab lists and cross off and see where I'm up to while I magic something up for dinner.
    Determined to do some frogs - ribbit
    Does anyone know if you can take stuff back to Next yet? They usually don't accept returns for a short time while the sale is on?
    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'
