    Delurks !

    :j Hello Dawn and welcome to [STRIKE]to memoirs of raving loony mummy:rotfl:[/STRIKE] my humble abode :D

    I describe my DS as concentrated !! He's on the Spectrum somewhere / I'm veering towards PDA bu eventually the "experts" will tell us. He's also coeliac so I feel your shopping bill !

    I like you thinking.... concentrated. have you been waiting long for the Profs to [STRIKE]ummmmmm and arrrrrrrrr[/STRIKE] reach a diagnoses?
    Keep an eye on approved foods - they sometimes have gf stuff on there -a few weeks ago 1kg pizza base mix for 99p and it tastes "normal" - I refuse to cook different meals so we Are all gf. Do Iceland / farm foods do Ribera ? I.m sure I've seen it n home bargains - we only have it in winter and have it hot.

    I had forgotten about AF, I used to get a fair bit of there, Thankyou I will have a look. I cook different for Superman and Mr Hinge so 1 more doesn't hurt :rotfl:Usually it is just the pasta, gravy etc.. I make for Miss Hinge as I cook most of our meals from scratch and make them GF friendly. I will have a look at farmfoods/iceland for ribena..... Thankyou :D

    R u in westyorkshire ?

    I'm in the Midlands Dawn although originally from North Yorkshire, Where about are you?

    Now you will stay Delurked wont you?1 ;)

    Hello :wave: Time for a quick cuppa and a fried egg sarnie :D

    It is lovely to see some many of you posting in my diary. So what is happening in my humble abode today you may [STRIKE]or may not[/STRIKE] be thinking:rotfl:

    So clear out, ship out, clean up is the mantra today! 4 more bags of clothes sorted and in the boot of the car ready for cash for clothes tomorrow, little emotional at saying good bye to all the baby clothes but also brought back a lot of memories!

    Baby toys, high chair, 2 car seats and a pram all out in the garden waiting for me to wash them down ready to sell! anything that doesn't clean up or is broken will go to the tip this afternoon.

    I aim to list 5 items for sale before the end of today on ebay and local selling pages. The money would be very well received as I have exactly 53p until Tuesday :o

    Washer is on for the fourth time today :eek: 3 more loads waiting to be done, may as well make use of the sunshine and warmer weather.... first load on the line by 5.30am:rotfl:! May be cheeky and ask my lovely neighbour if I can pinch her empty washing line today! Have 3 over flowing baskets of ironing already so will crack on with that once I've finished in the garden and got the roast beef and potatoes ready :o

    I need to sort through all the books [STRIKE]enough for a libary[/STRIKE] and games [STRIKE]it is like a toyshop[/STRIKE] we have and get rid..... the house is feeling alittle bigger already :rotfl:

    Operation get the kids back to school has begun, uniforms and swimming kits are all clean and awaiting ironing, lunch bags and drinks bottles are clean and waiting to be filled. Book bags located, emptied and refilled. Home work completed. :jSuperman:A:A has been briefed and his mood has immediately taken a downwards spiral :o he is currently hiding in a empty box waiting for postman pat to take him to grandads :rotfl:

    Time to crack on

    What is everyone else up to today?

    Its busy busy in the Hinge household :j
    [STRIKE]Nagged[/STRIKE] Mr Stripes, did a tidy in the garage and made 2 trips to the dump. Found lots of [STRIKE]crap[/STRIKE] items to car boot, hopefully next week.

    I have too tried to prepare the king for school tomorrow, he has proceeded to ignore me and most likely will be kicking and screaming tomorrow morning but will love it once he is in school :eek:

    Does superman enjoy school?

    your household will echo mine in the morning then :(
    Does superman enjoy school?

    I believe once he is there he enjoys school but I think it puts alot of stress on him, he doesn't choose to go to school I have to fight him every step of the way :( he is always so much calmer in the holidays and distraught after a school day. :(

    Tomorrow is his first day with his new LSA :eek:

    On the plus side nice neighbour has a load on the line and 1 in her machine for me :D she even hung them out..... maybe she will iron them aswell?! :rotfl:

    She has also very kindly bundled Miss Hinge and Superman over the fence for a hour or so :j:j RESULT!

    How old is DS? we haven't had any imput from Cahms and have been very lucky that the process for us has been relatively quick in hindsight

    Luckily :mad: we have a 27.5 hour statement to support him n school

    Super man has more 1:! support then he is statements for as the school can't cope otherwisw:eek:

    :eek: my back is broken. 3 hours of ironing is not for the fainted hearted and certainly not a job I will be doing again! If Mr Hinge continues to be on strike then I will take over the laundry and eradicate the need for ironed clothes.

    So bags packed check!
    Pack ups made Check!
    Kiddies bathed and clean Check!
    Uniforms clean and ironed check!
    Washing up done Dish washer loaded Check!
    2 loads of washing ready to hang out first thing in the morning Check!
    3 items listed on the fb selling page, will try to do 2 more if I don't fall asleep standing up!

    :A:ASuperman is fast asleep :eek: and has been since 8.45pm I have a sneaking feeling that I will be up very very early tomorrow :rotfl:

    Pack ups are very creative for the Little hinges tomorrow as the fridge is bare! Ham sandwiches, quavers and then I raided the cupboards and flung together some little trifle like pots for baby Hinge and Miss Hinge and Superman has a pot of custard :rotfl:Roll on Tuesday!

    My Neighbour really is a diamond not only did she hand my washing out, finish it of in her dryer but she bought it round all nicely ironed :j

    Time to crawl in to bed

    Night

    You are on Mrs Hinge for the most unsaleable [STRIKE]crap[/STRIKE] item. I have found a CB radio which is very very old not even sure it works!

    I'll be joining you on the early start tomorrow :beer:
