    Hugs to Wolfie (and I will think of you as I declutter,it's nice to have a virtual buddy to urge me on :D) and goodintentions DH ((())) - strictly platonic ones of course ;) - his place of work sounds much like mine at the mo - demoralising and extremely stress ridden.

    Pot washing for me this morning :o then lunch and the Grand Prix at m&d's, then I'll flutter til Strictly.

    I'll start the week with a less cluttered kitchen woop woop.:T

    Well, I have completely failed to keep up with everything this week! So the mission for today is to try and ensure all rooms are at least looking tidy. Then I can hopefully keep up next week :)

    PANTS DOWN!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    DH and I have been to the woods with the dog this morning. I wanted to check out how muddy it was as I plan to take Miss T and the Bubba there tomorrow and I will need the buggy.

    DH is now loading the car with garden rubbish to do a tip trip. I have sent DS to get dressed as he was supposed to be helping!

    I think I have averted a melt down! DD2 just dropped her lappy and bent the memory stick - that has EVERYTHING on it :eek: (A level photography). I have clicked it back together, and it seems to be working. I have told her to back it all up to the hard drive, and I will order her a new one - just to be safe.

    I am going to start dinner soon, and get online & see what i am supposed to be doing study-wise.

    I will catch up later :)

    LW - just let me know when and where if you need me :]

    Done loads this morning but none of it involves ousework - about to start now

    Hugs for DH goodintentions, CY's DD

    Dusty - we've really fell in love with 1 school but the Head told us it was full for yr9 which is the year DD will be going into in Sept but we'll put it on the list anyway and hope, we've another 2 schools to go to so hopefully they will both come up to scratch and we can put them down on the list. I've warned her that she'll have to be home taught if all else fails - said that hoping she would go yuck but she quite likes the idea so now I have to try and get out of that lol

    Helen I'm confused? Are you moving? Do you know how long the wait list is for the 'full' year 9? Have you considered your chances at appeal. I'd say pm me but I know my box is full. If you need help shout and I'll declutter space.

    Laundry and food shopping only so far today here. Time for a cuppa and then I want to dust 2 of the kids bedrooms.

    Thanks, I will.:A:A:A

    HM onion soup decluttered:drool:; and we've picked up about a million tiny, manky crab apples off the back lawn, and Mr LW has mowed the grass front and back; all ready for 13-year-old chocolate labrador Megan, who will be arriving on Friday.;) It's much easier to pick up the poo when the grass is short!:rotfl:

    Valli you will enjoy Julian Clary. We saw him a couple of years ago, I'd love to see him again.

    CY I'm so sorry to hear your DD is in pain. I hope you get the solution you are hoping for.

    Bossymoo it's well worth doing nearly new sales. I made £45 after commission selling outgrown clothes.

    I've done several hours of ironing and cooked a roast. On the one day I don't go to watch DS3 play football he scores 2 goals. His team won 1-5.

    DS2 saw an osteopath yesterday. He has damaged his hamstring and can't do any exercise for at least 2 weeks. He is very fed up. He cadged a lift with another lad in his team and went to watch his team play. He's not come back yet so hopefully he's having a good time with his friend.

    Looking forward to the new thread. I hope you had a good sleep JulieJim
