Having a slow week, feeling rather down. Struggling to think of things to do with DS and DD2. Suddenly feeling panicky about taking DS and DD2 out together alone. He is diagnosed ASD and is just starting to tantrum plus DD2 is going through the fun 2yr old stage of answering back and being naughty for attention, especially while out. DD1 is on holiday with her Dad so one less to worry about, but I feel I am letting them down anyway, I've shared now, so hopefully I can shake myself out of it!

computers not being collected until tomorrow so stairs and entrance hall still stuffed :mad:

Home insurance is due so I am being plagued by a swarm of insurance sales people :mad: none of which can beat a meerkat, and DH wants the toy :eek:

On top of that I have another solar energy salesman coming tonight, I hope he knows his stuff because in the last year I have nearly become an expert in solar panels :rotfl: This one thinks he has the answer to the roof not being big enough.

so flying must be done at lunch time, but not much as it is pretty much ok :T
