I decided it was not worth spreading germs so I rebooked for next week at both parents evenings and KH was taking DD3 anyway so she has still gone.. everything crossed I'm feeling better tomorrow..
My tum is just very very crampy now but I have avoided a bathroom dash in the last couple of hours and I ate a couple of slices of toast so things are looking up I guessI'm pretty sure it was the omelette from the Chinese we had on Tuesday .. it was DS3's birthday and that was what he wanted so that is what he had.. he wanted a PS2 controller for his birthday so I sourced him 2 a red one and a yellow one which both were clear plastic so fun to look at.

Get well soon to piggers, bossy, potentially dusty and any other poorlies xx
I have been fluttering today; paid stuff this morning, one of my customers is terribly illShe's been in hospital for almost a fortnight with a blocked small intestine (and I mean BLOCKED, she hasn't been able to eat for almost three weeks) and they have decided to finally operate. I'm very worried about her, she's in her 80s, still very active and plays bowls 4 or 5 times a week but this is a BIG op. And her poor husband is beside himself, as you can imagine. I don't want to bother him as their phone was ringing non stop when I was there this morning so I will call their NDN tomorrow to see if there are any updates. At least he has a nice clean and tidy house to come home to after visiting hours.
WM fed and emptied onto the airer. Dinner prepped, scoffed, WUDUPA, sandwiches made for tomorrow. Ironing basket emptied and everywhere vacuumed ready for the five child onslaught tomorrow.
Spoke to DS1 last night, I have got to the bottom of his recent moods. Can any of you with older DSs advise, is "hair" normal at 12?! Seems young to me but I only have myself and my DD for reference and unless DS1 gets periods soon I'm well out of my comfort zone :rotfl:
DSS and DSD are here tonight and both are in stinking moods. I'm hiding in my bedroom until I can order them to bed at
10DH is out banging his pots so it'll be a late one, I tend not to sleep until he's home.
Time for a brew and a read of my book I think. Sleep well all xx0 -
I only had one, but yes Fizzwhizz. Get a shovel and a bucket for feeding time, too;):rotfl:

Fizz.. My middle son was shaving at 13 and my other 2 who are dark blonde were about 14 when they needed to shave.. they grew pubic hair at about 9-10 .. so for my family 12 would be pretty late.. I know my girls KH and I all had adult hair long before 12. My 11 year old has a little body hair and is growing boobs.. my 9 year old isn't showing any signs yet though.. she was only 9 in November though to plenty of time. My girls got AF at 12-13 so far. If that helps in any way?LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0

Thanks ladies
I was an early developer myself and had AF at 10, DD was later at 13 and she will be 15 this month and still has no boobs to talk of
I have noticed recently that DS1 is getting broader across the shoulders so he's definitely growing. Still as thin as a pin, I really struggle to find clothes to fit him, he needs age 14 for length but because he's so skinny all tops hang off him and he could probably fit in his trousers twice!

We actually had this conversation yesterday afternoon -- he wasn't best impressedbut he's an early riser so there's no excuse not to squeeze in a quick shower each morning. Why are children so reluctant to wash?! All five of our brood whinge and complain when asked to get in the shower whereas I'd spend half my life in there if I could

Still here and dipping in on the lists when I can. Things a bit hectic at the moment. Flying going ok though. Just wish the kitchen was fitted and done.0

Morning all - sorry so many are feeling unwell - there must be something going about. Hopefully the better weather that is forecast (perhaps not everywhere) for next week will help us all to recover.
Raining here, so bathroom clean then shower, follwoed by kitchen clean is on my agenda today. If it fines up will go shopping later.
I have already updated finances.
Have a good day everyone. xxJuly 16 £95/£200
