Evening

Just caught up reading and waiting for DD to come back with doogie so i can get some tea.

Hope your DS passed Dusty. Eta Yay :-)
Hugs for you greenbee, how will you manage the work trips
Bossymoo - massive hugs for you xxx

Cant remember what else i wanted to say!

Have managed to catch up with DH who went to visit a friend near Bury yesterday. He was supposed to phone me when he got in after his night out but apparently they were all too paralytic to do anything. So what has he decided to do today instead of coming home, he's gone up to Ambleside to his old stomping ground to have a night out on the pi** with his old mates - rolls eyes big time! You'd think one round would be enough for a bloke his age. Not ranting really.

Gonna chase DD as she has now gone from one extreme to another and i'm hungry.

Back later

Bossymoo... sending big squishy squashy hugs with fluffy fluffs attached.. a very hard week by the sounds of it.. and of course you feel 100.. you are a mummy!

House insurance looked at.. I've spent 5 hours running quotes and they are all a lot more than my current one so we aren't changing this year!
Utilities upgraded so we are on a fixed rate lower tariff..
Broadband upgraded so we are paying the same but have a higher download limit so we aren't being charged extras or on restricted speeds..
Mobiles to update in a few months.. apparently I HAVE to have an iphone 4S.. even though I hate them.. because OH wants me to play games lol.. good job I love him!

Beasts depositted in bed.. the 3 girls were not allowed to go to God Squad this evening after their appalling behaviour this morning and DD4 hiding one of her boots because she hates them and made everyone 45 minutes late for school! Her new ones are on order, will be 4 weeks and are leopard print!

Evening

I'm about ready to drop, so won't be posting anymore this evening, DS came down with a migraine at about 11.30 last night and vomitted until 2 am this morning and after a full day at work I can hardly keep my eyes open.

DH and DD are at the gym - DS and I just couldn't face it (we were there last night and will go tomorrow as long as migraine is gone), floors have been swept, dishwasher is on, wm will go on once I bring my clothes back down.

I'm pleased today was the kitchen as this something we have always kept on top of otherwise i don't think I would have gotten anything done:o

take care everyone - I have read some of the thread and it seems like some big hugs are needed and some congratulations but i'm sorry I can't remember who needs which:o

Who'd have thought that I have got a far better connection through my mobile than I have been getting recently on our broadband - ridiculous. Well thats it for tonight I need to chase DD to bed then I might go early myself and do some internet shopping

Night all

Slowdown

Well introduced the new plan to DS1&2. Was met with grim faces and barely covered groans. I think they might have stuck their fingers in their ears and made la la la noises but it doesn't look cool when you're that old.
However, they managed the dishwasher between them and I didn't find and dirty plates still on the table. They both showed a decent understanding of the fact I was tired of asking but we'll see.
It was strangely delicious dumping stuff in their bedrooms tonight. My youngest son even offered to carry it upstairs for me!. Not to put it away mind you but I appreciated the gesture.
I have two small whiteboards up in the kitchen now with names on, looks very impressive.
Thank you so much everyone for your help. And an enormous amount of respect and well wishing to bossymoo. I admire your strength.
Kind regards
Slowdown:)

Not a very good flying day this end as I had to go back to hairdresser's for them to 'fix' the cut I got last Saturday as I wasn't happy. House may not be very tidy but at least my hair looks good
