    Bossy, I agree with all that ruby woo said :) Have a good day all,

    Bossy, that made me laugh.

    Well I've changed the bedding but that's as far as I got in there so dusting BR can wait. But I walked the dogs, tidied garden, sorted recycling and put rubbish out so not all bad. Oh and hoovered downstairs.

    Paid stuff now, so have a good day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    That is soo funny bossy. Bless his cotton socks! Do I get the impression he does want to a new toy really plus sleeping with mummy?

    I remember my son having a dummy and he would not give it up, and someone said to me, he won't have it stuck in his mouth when he is 18, and he hasn't....but he did have it til he was 5years and 10 months. It was dreadful. I had to have dozens of the bl...y things as he woke up every night loosing it and it was so tiring searching for the things at 3am.... Anyway he stopped using dummies and I decided then not to sweat the small stuff! Unfortunely bigger stuff came along then but I try not to sweat the big stuff now and that's not so easy xxxxx

    Hi Ladies, I'm off to work in a minute.

    Bossy - I would point DS in the direction of Bob the Builder DVD's I think the cement mixer was called Dizzy!

    I've searched and searched but I can't find the little ones swimming costumes (swimming tonight). I'm rather short of funds so buying new is not really an option. I really can't think where I have put them.

    My fuse is very short today and I have lost it with DS2/3 and DD2. DH and I are still :(.

    Walk decluttered

    Loulou get well soon

    Bossy, so funny. Trouble is for you I guess there is always the undercurrent as to what things are related to whereas for us lucky ones they are just kids being kids.

    Mumto5 - blame it all on a hormone surge x

    Going to hoover and then pop to the shops. Washing on the line blowing fiercely
