loopy-loo73

not done much this afternoon i'm afraid

took girls for lunch & managed to get dd1 new school shoes then came home & filled the paddling pool, all 3 of us got in, got soaked, had water fights, emptied it again & jumped in the resulting muddy puddles :rotfl: happy kids = happy mummy

so HHC anyone at 5.30 ???

I'm liking your numbers.....I cahnged your avatar because I am slightly sick of the prancing reindeer, been here far too long.


Anyways, decluttered work, also had DD2 at Fracture Clinic to replace a pot on her foot, all healing nicely although she's got stitches and metal to be removed in a few weeks.

Got bids on my ebay items...yarhoo.

Weather is looking particularly gruesome for the following weekend, Grrreeeeeaaaattttt...just whilst I'm on leave. Brill.

Off to sort out tea, dw and wm.

Evening all

Glad the delegating is working out, greenbee.

DS2 and I bought a foldable crate for the car boot (to stop shopping and other bits sliding around) and 10 cardboard boxes from Argos to help sort out his room. If we can tidy it, then I can clean existing storage and we'll see what's still needed. The boxes aren't pretty, so it's not a long term solution. I've also done dailies and pre-sorted the stuff from the bookcase. :T Not found a winter coat for him yet in two of our usual cheapy shops, so we may have to look elsewhere.

I've given OH a lift to the bowling green (hoping he'll get a lift back) and fed myself and 3 boys (1 borrowed). DS2 and I are now going to watch G-Force before I find something productive to do.

Must talk to DS1 tonight who has asked me to fund a short trip to Dublin. He'd be going with older, very sensible friends who are not into getting drunk, so I'd be happy for him to spend time with them. I'll need some commitments from him first, though.

Will be back later. In the meantime, spoons, posi-vibes and sticks are their usual places, so please help yourself. xxx
