The other problem is that DD1 has only been out of York twice in nearly 4 years.... now we know we hav eto work at this - but I want her in good health for the olympics ( we have spent £600+ on tickets) and i don't want her stressing over a this...
and DD2 does not like carveries - she doesn't like her meat as meat ( she likes it hidden in sauces) and she doesn't do veg!
I'd like to get away with not celebrating - OH ruined my birthday last year... but if I can't then I'd like to go to my local pub! But mum is in Stockport and little sis is in Didcot!
As I said it will require some thought....
celebrate your birthday with DD (maybe away somewhere nice?) and then say to your family that you will be having a family celebration in YORK and they are welcome to attend if they want

:eek: I seem to have tumbled into the FlyLady thread. :eek:
Not been here for a while. Life has just been hectic, health abysmal, and house.....well
:wave: Hello to everyone old and new.
Decided my NYR would be to get back on track so made a list out for daily job and also a 6 week rota for the muckier jobs.
So whilst I might be on a slightly different job list to you all I want to try and pop in every now and then for some inspiration and encouragement.0 -

I think even I may know that one as we may have stayed there last year - you know, when we were the only people that didn't know about the Take That gigs and wondered why we couldn't get anywhere to stay on the Saturday:D

Hello all, Hope you are all well and hugs to all xx
I have been to college today and see light and the end of the tunnel. Assessors have called for a load of work, including my last assignment......haven't quite finished it yet, and it was supposed to be in today!!! I have given the tutor a draft and she has given me feedback, so not too much to do.
House is not too bad but had to get up this morning to dry DD a t-shirt and tights for school cause she didn't have any!!!!
Food in the oven, might have a break from the computer now as my eyes are really starting to hurt...............xx0 -
