    Well done to DS. Naughty Oakley, good job you didn't pay for the doggie parlour.

  • Evening!

    Nice quiet day here today. DH went out with paramedic mate for a bit this morning and I sat in the sunshine in the garden. I was supposed to be doing ironing, but hey ho!

    Lost 1.5lbs at chub club tonight :T.

  • 'Challenging' day today with DH. He can't concentrate on what I'm saying, so lots of repetition, half finished conversations and having to give him instructions like a child. Frustrating to say the least :(. We've been into town and he's wandered round all the shops looking at the same things he did last time. Deja vu.

    I'm feeling a bit down. The situation with DH hasn't helped, but also my foot problem is playing up badly again (not helped by Oakley chewing through my FitFlops last week :mad: so I can't wear them!). I'm really missing the Florida sunshine, and although I'm looking forward to the boys being off all summer, the money side of them being off is on my mind. Need to cheer up.

  • Schools out for Summer :T. 45 days off according to DS2 :cool:.

    DH has continued to be 'wishy-washy' since Wednesday. Today he has been having waves of fear and vacant spells. He has forgotten my name again :(.

    I'm tired - of everything as well as in the physical sense.

    Oakley was 1 yesterday! Time flies :eek:.

    We had lunch with my Mum and sister today which was lovely Xx

  • Hi all, thanks for checking up on me.

    Got home from our couple of days away at teatime. In some ways it was good, in others it was sheer hell :mad:. The Wildlife Park yesterday was excellent and the rain held off until right near the end. Hotel was fine, but not amazing as expected, theme park today was disappointing as half the rides were closed and it was busy with school trips who have not yet broken up. DH had quite a few waves, DS1 was rude and horrible most of the time, and the dog is in a huff because we left him again! Next time I'm going on my own!!
