Evening all
:wave:
Didn't have time to check in this morning. My anxiety is playing havoc with me - brain wanted me wide awake at 11pm, 2am and 4am but then decided at half past six then it would like to sleep, just as it was time to get up.
Love and hugs to all that are needing them - I hope the brighter weather is helping a little. It is certainly helping me. Welcome also to Speky and SilverYew
Bob - hope your ds is on the mend soon
MTC - so pleased that you spoke to your HV
LaE - Brilliant news that dh got the job :j
So today I have:
:cheesy: Checked banking and PAD
:cheesy: nsd
:cheesy: all meals from stores
:cheesy: busy throughout the day at work
:cheesy: meeting after work
:cheesy: extra Year 11 teaching
:cheesy: minimal housework
:cheesy: got kids to help round the house
:cheesy: got dd to cheerleading
It doesn't look like much for someone who has literally not stopped.
I'm going to watch a bit of telly and crochet. Laters

Hi all
Work .. ferry kids .. work .. do housework .. sleep ..and repeat. That's my life at the moment. I actually don't think I have been on our living room this week, never mind sitting down and watching telly.
Ok. Enough moaning. This has to help financially which is a positive. DS1 finds out tomorrow if he will get a permanent job in which case I need to let DWP know which means we could lose his £125 a week benefits, and he only earns £75 a week so we can't really take money off him.
Sorry too tired to read properly but glad LaEs OH has got a job. Anxiety busting vibes for CCL. 'Time for sleep.0 -
I am as well.So am I.
Hello all
We've had a good day at home. Managed to wash, dry and put away 2 loads. I've had earache all day, I have used drops to soften the wax to see if that helps. Today was a NSD and did our usual dfw bits and pieces.
Hugs to all.Fashion on a ration 2025 0/66 coupons spent
