Charliey I'm sorry to hear about OH. My brother got made redundant. He got a pay off and a better job. I hope this is what happens to your OH and try not to worry about DS.
Probably best to use distraction at this point and keep busy. But you're allowed to have a good cry first.0 -
I have just printed off the list so I can see what still needs doing.
I have turned the wheelie bin up the right way after it has been cleaned to find lots of very small spiders running around inside the lid eeewk.
Pegs are now in the sink with some wash powder and very hot water. I chuck the bag in too as it is a little mouldy.
HHC Anyone?.
I have just found the missing shed key inside the peg bag. Thank you flyladies x0 -

Hugs charlie
I've just cut the grass, there wasn't an awful lot to do, just tufty in places. We are mostly packed hair all snipped and I've washed the sofa throws and just hung them up.
Decided the kids can take their little pull-alongs as hand luggage. We've managed with one medium case and one cabin-sized so I think we'll be ok with 3 hand luggages. They can pack whatever toys they want to take. DS is desperate to take his red tractorand DD said she will "need" her Rapunzel doll and her handbag and (toy) mobile phone
I have the stuff I need to make DD the dress she wants so may look at that if I've time. Might pop to Mr A tomorrow, for snacks to take. And we're out for dinner in the evening, meeting my mums foster children!
Ach, just sent DS to sit on the step he's getting a bit lairy :eek: hopefully a bit of a sit will calm him down...p
Need to go put everything back in the shed... Think they are finished outside now. Isn't it lovely to be able to have the door open all day?Bossymoo
Away with the fairies :beer:0 -

Going to plant some runner bean seeds next then another lot of paperwork - I am on a mission with it now.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
I hope DD2's boyf's housing benefit thingy is straightforward Pigpen. You're an amazing person. Glad to hear DS2 is improving Dancemum. Hang on in there CharlieYates and have a (((hug))) or three.
