hiya. I'm fine thnaks, just mega busy and can't seem to keep up on here. I lurk occasionally - I'm actually working on a Tues/Wed/Thurs instead of being on here...naughty boss giving me things to do.

On a good note, hubby and i are going to book a hol mid Nov (our belated 10th wedding anniversary treat to ourselves). Was thinking of the carribean but found somewhere in Mexico yesterday that looks out of this world. need to ring the travel agent Caribbean warehouse as they have beaten every price I've found so far.

Hope your painkillers kick in soon and you sleep it off x

Bad boss:rotfl::rotfl:
Wow that sounds brill, im sure you will have a fantastic time:D

i know! she is a little cutie, loves frozen (like most kids). mum bought her a CD so we all had it on in the car last night, singing away. Her words are "na na na na let it go, let it go, na na na" and she sounds like a wailing cat.. (I'm being kind:p). no chance of x factor for her :rotfl:

Oh thats too cute. X factor overrated.

Sent ya a wee email to hotmail xx

Morning all! Morning tweets, hope you're getting over the shock of yesterday x

Glad you've got your procedure over with bubbs, I wish you a speedy recovery .

Banababe, don't give up too soon and make a decision you will later regret. I know it's really hard juggling things when you've got a family, but the course won't last forever. I find batch cooking a Godsend at times when I am busy - it's something nice and relaxing you can do on a late Sunday afternoon with some music or maybe the telly on, especially going into winter, and it's very little more work than just cooking a single meal. Maybe the family could help out a bit more if you tell them it's hard going at the moment? Just little things can be a big help sometimes. Good luck hun.x

Hubby and I actually spent Sunday together. Nice lunch and light shopping. Very MSE ! Maybe I'm just having off day. Will maybe allocate busiest day , pizza night or take out and stop being so hard on self xx

So nice to see you around xxx

All my own doing vouchercrazy, I had been deliberating all day what to buy. I just didn't check out the mini wines properly. Don't feel bad. I am sure I have found the odd £ in a trolley in the past which will have covered my loss. :rotfl:

Some good combinations there. :T

Their statement. One coupon. on Only one in any transaction. Horse radish

No wonder this

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-29153020

"In June, the Morrisons chief executive Dalton Philips was blasted by the grocer's founder Sir Ken Morrison at its annual shareholder meeting for delivering what Sir Ken called a "disastrous" set of results.

Sir Ken also told Mr Philips that his three year plan for the chain was akin to the manure produced by his herd of cattle." :rotfl:

Just phoned school re ds2s autism/adhd assessment to see if they have recieved some paperwork to fill in. They said that they have and his new teacher had filled it in....I am glad that it is getting done but I thought that seeing as the forms are asking about how ds2 is in different situations they should have been done by his teacher from last year as she knows him well whereas the new (supply) teacher has only known him for a few days I said nowt because didn't want to seem pushy.

Anyway, I couldn't get over it and rang back asking if his old teacher could look over the forms and check that she agrees with the responses given, the senco said that she had wondered if his old teacher would have been better placed to do it in the first place...the mind boggles sometimes. So frustrating that these are the people who I trust to make sure he gets what he needs

DS2 lost 5 minutes of play yesterday andhas minus two brownie points (or whatever they call them) because he was struggling to sit and write a couple of sentences.

Sorry to rant but sat here alone so p***d off

I'm so glad your fighting his corner.

I once told a teacher they only get to borrow my child and at end of school I will have responsibility forever. They will probably forget most of their names !

So don't be scared to phone and point out the obvious or state your preferences/ he's your boy xxx
