    Rock n roll :rotfl:

    Thanks ladies, I will have a word with the manager tomorrow. I wouldn't mind, I'm a bl00dy committee member, lol, you'd think they'd make an effort to get it right with my kids :p

    Well, I have "put the house to bed" and after my super-early start I'm just about ready myself. The bin is out, DW loaded, uniforms ready, lunches done, reading record filled in (aww I think DS has gone up a level, he brought quite a tricky book home today).

    Just a bit more browsing time then the land of nod for me :D

    Huge Congratulations Mrs MoneyPenny on DS2's award.

    The paperwork mountain that has been building in my office is gradually, very gradually, wearing down. Today, at last, looking at the In Tray, I can only see 1" of files that need action. It it a huge advance on the tottering 5" pile of a month ago, plus which I did the filing yesterday so the bottom tray isn't full gunnels which is a little energy vampire all by itself. In addition, at long last I've managed to come up with a spreadsheet design that will give me some information at a glance that hasn't been available to me before so I'm feeling rather chuffed.

    Freezer tetris played, freezer contents sorted, stocktaken and meal planning for the next eight days done. Stairs Carpetted. Lodgery-type person leaves tomorrow for 10 days elsewhere and the forecast is perfect here for carpet washing.
    Better is good enough.

    I'm coveting a pink microwave that matches the rest of my appliances..but we have a working silver one at the moment and I don't think DH would appreciate me buying a new one just because I want it to match the rest of the pink..lol

    Hope the hospital was okay Natty

    Thank you girls, it was a long awaited appointment for an assessment regarding my mental health.. After being pushed from pillar to post, given the ring around and told the funding was being cut a couple of years ago I have finally been given a place at the original place they were going to send me to before they cut funding... I am on a waiting list of 8 months for one lot of therapy and 2 years for the continuation therapy but it finally means I get the long term psychological therapy that I need. So come Christmas I will probably be doing the start of my 5yrs of long term therapy :D :j:j:T:T
