Dizzy , I second what other people say, have a good cry and talk to your OH.
All this upheaval is bound to get on top of you, sometimes it helps just to release the tension.
Have a good Monday people, off to wake the littlies up as they are still snoring. Why do they wake at six on a weekend and have a lie in on Monday morning?0 -
Lynne - hope you had a lovely birthday yesterday
Ooh I missed this. Happy birthday from me too!
Pigpen love the comment about the neighbours, made me chuckle over my porridge.
I am in, not sure what today brings. DS1 wants me to take him to Argos this afternoon, nearly a 50 mile round trip, which I could do without. We will see.
Have a good Monday everyone.0 -

You mrs had better be delegating that job... unless it is a floor or table lamp shade... no acrobatics you!!YORKSHIRELASS wrote: »Pigpen love the comment about the neighbours, made me chuckle over my porridge.
They are absolutely no bother at all speak barely a word of English amongst them, house of 5 or 6 men.. so you can imagine!! We barely hear a peep from them.. until vodka night!! Then they sing until all hours.. One Christmas they were sitting on an upstairs window sill singing Polish Christmas Carols at 4am!!.. It was rather sweet, but also sad because their families aren't here.
Everyone out in record time today and Pixie snaffling weeto's.. she's already had a jam sandwich.. the girls have one most days on the way to school.. it is incentive to get ready.. if they waste time they don't get a sandwich or fruit.. depends what I've got in.
Avon delivery here so I can get that done after I've spent 5 years picking up lego and vacuumed..
Need to ring Hive people
Need my mop back from DD1
Waiting for hospital to ring.. hoping they won't.
Need to sort DS3's stuff for PIP assessment tomorrow.. came round pretty quick didn't it Mrs Wolf?? Yours will be much simpler than ours I'm sure.. hopefully both go smoothly!!! XXX
OH's college coffee made.. and I found a bag of nuts I chucked in with his pack up.. they need eating.. cashews.
Package ebay sales.
Delegating vacuuming upstairs to DS3 .. How the heck do you motivation a depressed 16 year old to do anything??? I cant even get him dressed!!
Finishing off some bunnies is on the list for today too.. I have 4 needing eyes and tails and one that is flat, like knitted roadkill.

In this week, started with you last year but didn't have time to clean - actually I decided it was pointless to clean as I was sanding walls (HS&L) to paper, then sanding & painting floors in HS&L, living room, and dining room.. got it all done before crimbo... but I forgot to start cleaning again :rotfl:
