  • Chicken in the oven, DH has prepped the veg. I have been working on Learning Journeys and planning. I will need to clear up soon, as there is paper all over the DR table.

    I came back on the lappy to charge the battery (plugged in at the other side of the room) & to sort out & order some photos. I am a bit miffed, as on the MSE site it states that Snapfish give you 50 free prints for new customers, but when you actually sign up you only get 20 :mad: there isn't even an email address on the website to contact them, and their customer support page consists of FAQs :mad: I have replied to the confirmation email, so hopefully they will get it, and give me 30 more free prints :p

    LW I am sure Mr LW didn't mean to upset you. Is he still in the doghouse, or have you forgiven him yet? :)

    DH just called in. 36hrs of surgery, but he's ok.

    So glad he is ok, how are you holding up sweetie, I cannot believe how hard it must be
    Today he has walked the dog and is off out on another bike ride (DS got a new bike on friday for his birthday - which was in August :eek: - Bad parents!! :o).

    We just bought DS3 one today for Christmas. He is having it now though to get use of it in the Autumn it was a huge amount of money but he is delighted and knows that there will be just a few tiny bits at Christmas, family can help out by getting him there usual pressies.

    Car boot went well, it didn't seem that we had done too good as we brought a lot back but we made £96 so happy with that. Going to get dinner cooking then sort out what to keep for another one and what to bin/off load on charity shop tomorrow.

    Need to iron tonight for clothes for the week for school/work.

    Hi to all.
    Day at home today, just grandparents calling in. Both tots are tired, so hoping for another peaceful bedtime. They are currently scoffing sarnis (which is unusual!) and cucumber sticks, and watching ice age, after chasing each other round the garden on scooters.
    I have got the washer on but other than that we are up to date here. Most toys tidied, just the train track for DS to do tonight.

    Feels very autumnal, kids have had their winter coats on today and haven't even tried to take them off.

    Been sorting my digital photos today. More to sort tonight when tots in bed, but it's getting there.

    Will also do my extras list for this week.

    Hope everyone having a nice weekend.
    Bossymoo

    Away with the fairies :beer:
