Right, quick catch up - WM x 2 done Monday, pegged out and dried on Tuesday, WM x 2 done Tuesday ready to peg out tomorrow if weather holds....LR tidied round and hoovered......visit to EX to drop off DS for 5 hrs after nursery on Monday pm, kidnapped EX MIL so I could cope with a necessary trip to Lakeside Primarni - melted plastic buying 7 sets of underwear each for DD2 and DD3, being genetically curvy the "cheapy" sets were no good and had to buy separates - all their old underwear drawers up turned straight into bin (all greyed, overstretched, missing wires and generally nasty)
2 pairs of school shoes for DD3 and a pair of black slip ons for me (1 pair of DD3 shoes and one pair of my ankle boots which were not worth re-heeling hit the black sack too
:j)
Picked up my Mum aswell with EX MIL with DD4 went to see both "grandad's secret gardens" at the Green Burial Ground after hours, no one else there except bunnies chasing round the meadow - pleased still looking good after last weeks tidy up
Dropped Mum off, picked up DS and brought EX MIL back to help with DD4 this week so I can get all important stuff out of the way this week. Got in 10pm Monday night.
Had Big Black Cloud appointment this morning, went better than expected. EX MIL treated us to dinner out, minimal flying.
Busy day tomorrow, GP for me first thing, then long trek to horsepiddle to sort out jaw surgery 8 years on the NHS waiting list and hopefully tomorrow I will get a realistic date for surgery
So realistically hope to catch up with listy on Thursday
I must remember to post this post now - :rotfl: TTFN :wave:The cold never bothered me anyway0 - HHI..
