1x WM done, S&S bathroom done, S&S kitchen done
DS2 has asked for a body guard to go to school with to stop people annoying him. I'm trying to be positive but due to his holiday behaviour I would be surprised if he makes it to Friday without school ringing me. He is being observed today and Friday by the autism team.
I have a meeting at home at 9.45 so better get my act together and get a couple of HHC's in. Feel free to join me.0 -
