Oh dear. I've just trapped DD fingers in the bathroom door
she's not badly hurt but rather *cof* vocal about it
to the point where DS is also in floods of tears because he thinks I've hurt her! So we all have a pact now not to leave our fingers in any door jams and mama will look before she closes any doors
all is calm again now and her fingers are not marked.
She's been de schooled though, and she had no nits but a head full of glitter - how does that stuff stick to their scalp???
I've divided the prepped apples into 4 bagged portions that can go in the freezer once they are cool. I'm going to S&S the upstairs toilets before bed, but that will be all tonight. I'm bushed.
Tomorrow I've to collect a friends kiddies en route to school so she can get to an early appointment, then DD and I need to collect my prescription, and possibly go shopping for some boots (for me - going out boots would you believe). I could also do with some new nightwear, and we might pop to Mr S on the way out for milk and fridge bits.
DD had had a strop two nights in a row walking home from school, just general temper and tiredness I think, but I'm wondering if something has happened. I asked if she liked nursery and she said no because register takes a long time when there's too many children. I can't imagine it takes half the morning so either she does like it, nothing has happened and she's just over-tired or there is something else bothering her. Suppose she will tell me eventually...Bossymoo

Thanks LW, decided to take him to the vet now as he refused tea, she has checked him over and given ABs to try to prevent a problem and I've given him the painkillers I had from last time.
Dinner eaten, need to wash up and I may do a little ironing.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
