    Having a GRRR moment with DD as she has 'killed' her mobile phone and is now sulking because I won,t shell out for another one (has to be all singing type) and now has gone into 'and another thing' mode and I am now officially the worse mother on the planet apparently - will now consider ebaying her ;)
    Hope your all having a great day x

    Evening all

    Beautiful day here :)

    Welcome Kimsmum

    Bit :mad: cos my Doctors rung and cancelled my appt for this afternoon cos my GP is ill (this is the 2nd time in a month my GP has been ill). Because it's a follow up appt they wouldn't let me see another one. I've been given an appt for 9.15 tomorrow but have to ring at 8am to check if the GP is in or not. Very annoying, especially as I'm not driving at mo so my dad needs to come get me.

    Still felt very wobbly today, but went to work anyways. Work kids did well today, and I took them out to play footie for half hour in the afternoon before giving them an early finish. I was on my own as my assistant (army man)'s wife had a miscarriage on weekend :( so he taking some time off.

    My lovely flatmate offered to pick me up from work, and when I got home I spent an hour reading on the balcony in the sun :D.

    OS wise - hoovered, emptied DW, emptied bins, made packed lunch

    Have a good evening all

    I've opted to just have my hot dogs with no sides - OH is going to have some wedges sprinkled with some paprika i think :)

    Red sky at night! so there might be no rain!

    Evening everyone

    Didn't manage to get on yesterday. Ds1 21st family party went well (thanks for asking bargainbird). Been shopping for rest of ds2 uniform for high school, can't understand why they need rugby shirt, pe shirt & tracksuit. Trousers need to be changed for a bigger size so will take them back tomorrow. I travel back south tomorrow afternoon on my own and managed to get a good deal on a 1st class ticket. Ds2 is staying at his grandparents to the 1st sept when they are bringing him back. Plan is to get organised before I start worrk.

    No os as still at mums apart from a bit of washing up.

    Ivyleaf - hope the op went well and you recover quickly
    Flutterby - how annoying re the dr appointment.
    CG - I am angry on your behalf
    Bitsy - hope your feeling better soon

    Hugs to anyone that needs/wants one. Take care
