    Hugs to everyone who needs one. Flying has been none existent today and its all been a rubbish day all round. To boring to go into but if anybody has any idea where an 8 yr old would lose 1 school shoe in a tiny house can you let me know :( :mad: :mad: :( School were not happy about her going in brown boots but they'll have to lump it!

    Off to bed now, tomorrow is another day :j
    Sorting my life out one day at a time
  • Evening all, not much flying here. Mine i did declutter 180 tiles from my garden down to PIL's house. :)

    DS1 had a football match today, he's only a sub but got playing alot when a boy when home injuried. So DS1 hasn't stopped talking about it all evening, bless him he did really well and his teacher said if they had to pick player of the match, he would have got it. :D

    Online shop has been done for tomorrow so thats me off to bed.

    LW sorry to hear your appointment wasn't much good, hope you get your referral very soon.

    Dancemum get well soon vibes.

    Mumto5 your just right, mine are the same they use to think everything i said was an empty threat and to be fair it usual was but for the last few weeks i say what i mean and mean what i say. Only one still digging his heels in is DS3. :mad: You keep at it xx

  • Oooh, 12yr old DD just went upstairs up to bed and when she was brushing her teeth she wiped her finger across the sink and said "wow, who cleaned this, its really shiny"! I am very chuffed but also embarrassed that it is such a big deal :o

  • Good evening :D

    Children were a nightmare tonight - lots of squabbling and tale-telling :mad: Needless to say, I was the one picking up after them, and wiping the table after them (twice!) and sweeping up food from the floor & tipping it away from plates. I don't know why I bother!

    LR tidy now, & hoovered through. I asked DS to take the dog out when he got in from school, as DH wasn't well. He ended up going with DH (what is the point!!). At least the dog was walked.

    Washing up done, DW on.

    I have ordered my steam mop - got it from Robert Dyas rather than direct - got free postage & cashback :D

    DH has said that he is not going to work tomorrow - so at least he should be able to sleep tonight (the stress of going to work keeps him awake) - although he has been dozing most of the evening already.

    I am going to bed now. Night night all x

    Skinty why not put a reminder in your phone for Thursday – just the word “Leaves” should be sufficient;;) Mr LW does this a lot; when there's a bag of dog poo to be dropped off at the poo bin on his way to work, he'll just have a reminder saying “Poo”.:rotfl:

    Thanks for the idea LW! I have alarms going off all over the place for my meds.....my phone has enough memory for one more saying leaves, the idea of Mr LW reminder saying "Poo" is funny

    If I don't do it Thursday, I might end up with compost, so I will definitely do it!
