Good morning ladies.
DS1 has stayed out of my way. He assumes I'm going to shout at him but I'm not angry. He picked a fight with DS2 which resulted in a bleeding nose and another upset man/child.
DH has talked to him on the phone. He's told him there is no free ride from here on in and that he has to get a job. He's got to leave the house by 9am and stay out of my way. The BD is snapping àt my heels. I have a drs appt tomorrow. I think I need a double appointment.
I'm home today to catch up with the washing/flying. I also want to sweep the front drive and tidy the patio up. Is it too early to get the garden furniture out?0 -

Morning all
Went to bed early last night without tidying the kitchen so I've done that so far this morning. Going to put wm on then have a shower. Aim today is solely paperwork and gardening (my own plus paid job next door). DS1 not working until this afternoon so I'm going to get him to help me by cutting the back grass and tidying the front edges.
Mumto5 good luck at the GPsThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Morning all. So far today I've hoovered downstairs, made pizza dough for tonight's tea, washed up and put dishes away, walked the dogs and done some paperwork.
