There seem to be loads of babies at the primary school here too.. but in the last few years the birth rate here has increased massively for some reason.

'Tis a nationwide trend.

Another Governor meeting decluttered.

I need some head space now and boys will be knocking on the door any minute.

Going to find my list and do a HH of something

I've been to paid work today then met a good friend for a cuppa before school pick up.

Someone has taken my whites out of machine and left them wet on the utility room floor. Seeing as DD1's clothes are wet on the airer i know the culprit. I'm not amused. She has also put 3 extra large bathtowels in the TD. They take forever to dry and the rule is to leave them on the airer for a minimum of 8 hours before putting them in the TD to fluff them up.

DS3 has been showered and smothered in emolient creams. He's off to his friends for a sleepover. Ineed to get a birthday card and bung some dosh in it.

I'm back to feeling taken for granted so will be doing nothing tonight. My family are all TTP.

I'm thinking of the tiny baby. I hope her young mum finds the strenght and support to cope with whats ahead.

Any idea of liquid quantity for slow cooker and how long I'd cook it on auto or low for? I want to start getting more use out of sc and only use it for a few things...

More ironing done... I hate my uniforms :mad:

DD is home and slamming around. Take out & early bed for her I think! I really need to get the recipes/ingredients together to make stuff like our local take-out, it seems to be the only thing that calms her mood swings down I think its all the stodge makes her so tired she can't strop. Time to dig my copy of "take-away secrets" out and compile a Mr A delivery.

I don't appear to have achieved much, but there has been a lot of tidying things away. There was a lot more out of place than I thought!
