    Evening all! Thanks for the new thread Dusty :A

    I'd say I'm in this week but ..........

    Tuesday - taking my class to the seaside for the day

    Wednesday and Thursday evenings - Year 6 camp

    Friday - Levellers gig

    Saturday - Fun Day followed by football followed by Chinese at Dad's

    Sunday - Lunch out with mum

    So that doesn't leave much time for flying!

    Oh well, there's always next week :o

    Love and hugs for all xx

    List achieved, email sent, DS1 messaged and energy bill checked (reduced the 'debt' by £150 in 2 months now so should be at zero by the time we need to put the heating back on)

    Bake a cake next.

    DD2 has been working alongside me as an MSA. She spends all her time outside in the playground and currently looks like she's just come back from a fortnight in the sun!

    She was trying to even out her tan today - standing with her back to the sun because her back was paler. Sadly she forgot that she was wearing a strappy bag - she has an extra random stripe across her back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Morning!

    Negotiation has begun ;)
    Kids: "mummy, we need some snack?"
    Me: "what kind of snack?"
    Kids: "yoghurt pouch and cereal with milk"
    Me: "you can't have cereal upstairs, just at the table"
    DS: "I got an idea, me and DD will play for 2 minutes and you can get up and go in shower, then we will have the c0c0p0ps" :D

    I'm being told to hurry up...

    Morning all

    FiL passed away in the night. Glad DH was down there. Trying to decide whether or not to tell DS3 before school, don't think I will. Had the conversation with DS1 about it happening whilst he was away before he went. He wanted me to tell him but it is tough to contact him so I'll wait until the weekend and see if I can catch him on fb.

    Best make a start on the day here.
