Not a good day today
Had a very disturbed sleep, some not so nice dreams, which is strange considering I had none while the boyfriendish was here. I had gone to bed earlier but couldn't even get up to see the girls off to school. Now I really do feel I'm failing them as a mum

I'm missing the boyfriendish things are always weird when we part he becomes distance and detached and I'm the opposite so I never know how to act, if to contact him etc
I'm sure he doesn't feel the same about me as I do him so I'm trying to take a step back but it's hard.

I went to my best friends yesterday to collect my avon order and my hedge cutter. Things went better than I thought but I did feel they changed some of the stuff they'd orginially said. They had a go about DD2's dad and I think I managed to upset her by saying that her girls did stay outside with the so called bully boys while DD2 and her dad nipped to his aunties. If her DD4 had been that upset and scared why didn't she come in??? Supposedly didn't want to disturb me!! I was sat on the sofa starring at the telly!!

I've noticed the neighbours have washing out, that's always a good sign so I might do some

Afternoon all

Not much housework done (just S&Sd kitchen) but I have spent some time in the garden hacking back a big bush which was trying to take over the world. Green bin day next week so I wanted to get this sorted. Also tidied up the honeysuckle and did lots of sweeping up.

Went to the vet this morning and the cat's eye ulcer has gone. At last. It's been 7 weeks. We have to keep on with both antiobiotics and optimmune until Tuesday when he has going to do the tear test and hopefully then we can stop everything. But I'm down from 16 treatments a day to 9 and that will be a big help. With luck she'll be able to stay in the cattery with the other cat when we go away instead of having to stay at the vet's as we expected. The other cat will be relieved because he's not as brave as he thinks he is.

I will again juliejim . . . but challenge not ironing

I've done nothing this morning, CBA

DD1's grandma has just been round, she's given be a black sack of clothes to go through and has told me she'll be round on Monday or Tuesday to cut back the bushes in the front garden
I'm not a garden person, the boyfriendish and DD2 did the back garden last week so the tent could go up

Doesnt help having a blocked ear and having it irrigated hasnt helped.

There must be something in the air. I've got the exact same problem - really annoying isn't it.

Decluttered some black hair dye last night and some washing. Hopefully get more done tonight

HHC - Loaded DW, loaded WM, S&S kitchen sides, got dressed , sorted the black sack of clothes ready for trying on later, sorted cat litter, swept kitchen floor.

I'm now going to nip to my mums to drop some stuff off, including my ruined duvet cover on the hope she can work her mummy magic on it

Then I'll be back . . .:cool:
