Right cuppa, then I will plug hoover in before going to get DS....any joiners for a HHC/hoovering?

charlies_tribe

Afternoon all. I'm in need of a huge kick at the moment. Managed to get through quiet a bit of the list yesterday (not that you can tell now) but today has completely gone out the window.


DH has come home from work to tell me he has been made redundant!
and DS has gone on his first residential, due to his problems he has never left me.
So feeling really emotional and the tears haven't stopped since 6am.
I should get busy with the list to take my mind off things but I just cant find my GUAG.
Haven't caught up on thread so hope everyone is ok xx

Charlie Y Sorry for your news about DH. Hope DS enjoys his residential x

Dustykitten

Charliey big hugs sweetie and I hope DH gets a new job soon, your DS will be having a great time and it is a credit to you that he has gone.

Bored of paperwork now so I think an hour in the garden before I tackle the next lot, just a bit of light weeding and sowing I think but I may get DS1 to cut the grass when he gets home.

mrs-moneypenny

work and food done, need to wash up, nip down hole in the wall, pick up some fruit, drop off at clothes and bottle bank, and pop money for church mag into a neighbour. hoping to get all of that done before 3pm so i can crack back on with the ironinng.

charlie, hope your DH finds another job soon and i hope your DS has a lovely time on the residential trip. hugs to you and yours

MadamMim2013
