yes but you dont have to use it for school nurserys you can use it for pre school centers as well if you are wanting to get your child into a certain school your be best to put her down on the list now i had to put ds and dd down on our local school list when they were 1 :eek: as the places went really fast a lot depends on your catchment school if yours is ok then it dosnt matter so much you should be able to get ash a place but if like mine it rubish then you need to get ash down on the list as soon as posi cant slow down i wont be waiting for you i cant stop now because im dancing0 -

I feel awful as I've really let myself down today. I don't know if it's PMT or what but I have literally had no patience today and have found myself shouting and slamming things about.
K was just crying because she was tired and I just lost and shouted at her. I feel like the worlds worst mum right now. Ashey's been playing up as well but she's obviously just reflecting my crap mood and tiredness because of K not sleeping.
So fed up right now. think I need a good cry and a decent nights sleep.Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043

Sending big ((HUGS)) your way. Take a step back and look at how much you've achieved this year and how much you are doing each day. xxBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Ask Ste if he can do this evening's duties with the girls & try & get a really early night with a mug of hot chocolate to help you sleep, although I don't think you'll need it! Then at least you will have had a big chunk of sleep if either A or K wake later in the night.
I know i sound like a mum (and i'm sorry, but i'm old enough to be so that's my excuse!) but are you getting enough vitamins, maybe you need extra B vits now you're off the AD's? Or failing that, a few bits of dark choccie always help!
Hope you feel better tomorrow,
Love Floss xx
P.S. I think you're a great mum & wife - wish I'd been as able to deal with everything at your age, and I only had 1 DS then!2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

Awwww, chicken! I hope you are in bed right now, getting a few zzzzzz'ssss. You are not a bad mum at all, just the opposite. But you are surviving on broken nights, stress, worry, ups, downs, the lot......
You are doing fantastic! Hope you feel better tomorrow....(please insert huggy smiley here, I can't do it!:rotfl: )Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

IA I have had one of those days too, although I know mine is PMT and tiredness. I was losing it with the kids even before school this morning! Get a good sleep and you should feel loads better in the morning.Olympic Countdown Challenge #145 ~ DFW Nerd #389 ~ Debt Free Date: [STRIKE]December 2015[/STRIKE] September 2015

Sar, I'm sorry you have had such a bad day (((hugs))), you are NOT a bad Mum just because you've had a bad day, the fact that you are even beating yourself up over it just shows that you care.
It's okay to feel a bit guilty when you have been cross at your kids, if you didn't you probably wouldn't be the fantastic Mum that you are - but don't dwell on it, it's over, tomorrow is a new day and you can be lovely, kind, caring Mummy again, and they will both forgive you and love you just as much as ever.
I hope you manage to get some sleep tonight and feel much better in the morning. xxx"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250
