Morning all
have emptied dw, pegged out 2 (small but washed by colour) loads, ironed all yesterday's and made a cake - all before 8:30 to use cheap leccy!
Am off to work shortly because I am helping the teachers in the classroom where I am TA in the mornings. We are having a lunch - my instructions are to bring something sweet hence the lemon drizlle cake baking. Plus mum (parents have gone away) gave me a large lemon - if life gives you lemons make lemon drizzle cake! :rotfl:Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Wow! Your teachers are lucky to have you! I wish we got an extra pair of hands in the holidays. We have done 8 days between me and my partner teacher and there is still stuff to do. It's amazing how long tray and peg labels take to make!Grocery challenge-

Morning all, DW and wm on. DS2 been left to cookery, deserts today so I expect he'll bring something yummy home.
Rest of kids still in bed so i'll go drag them out. Plan later is to lift DS2 and then medical review followed by vets.“Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.”0 -
