Clean doors

I've not managed to get my head in gear today really. Not worried as I feel much less hurried and stressed than before, so I've just muddled around.
Went to post office, made hair appointment, restocked the fridge (honestly where does it all go?), wrote (and delivered) a letter, voted, got the chair-bed down from the loft for tomorrow, and collected the little ones. Oh I've done a wash and made tea too.
Not completely idle, then, lol.
Feel much better about the school thing. I've said my piece and the ball is in their court. Of course I have the concern that she will be treated differently because I dared speak up - but given one of the new teachers was escorted off the premises last week - I figure they need to know what the new staff are like...Bossymoo

I think I'd be considering changing schools.. what on earth had they done to warrant an escort off the site! :eek: .. one removed from the school and one being nasty about a little girl.. I'd be very concerned.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Oh, I am extremely concerned. This isn't the end of it.
I think it's safe to say that particular teacher won't be teaching ever again.Bossymoo

I've done terribly with the 'cleaning' this week and have just managed to hoover and mop/ wipe surfaces each day as I've been kon Marie- img all my !!!!!
So so much stuff that we don't need, what on earth was I thinking having it all in the house, I swear if the kids stand still long enough ild kon Marie them too, hummmm do they bring me joy??? Of course, they're keepers!! ( only just tbh at the moment).
So I'll be starting afresh tomorrow with Friday's fly!!Just a single mum, working full time, bit of a nutcase, but mostly sensible, wanting to be Mortgage free by 2035 or less!0 -
Hi all
Both paid stuff today, DS collected from work, everyone fed and dog walked. I really should drag the hoover around. DH has taken DS2 to cricket.
Next week I have an added complication of DS2 doing work experience so as well as working myself and getting DS1 to work from 8.45am to 5pm DS2 will need taking to work from 10.30am to 4pm. I need to use some holidays so I have requested a couple of days off work to do a bit of spring cleaning and refresh the Kon-Mari-ing that I did last year. Is it sad to be excited about sorting out the hall cupboard?
And yes where is LW? I know she was off on her hols but she seems to have been gone for a very long time.0 -
LW.. was only going for a week, 4 weeks ago.. maybe they are having a wonderful time and decided not to come home
.. I'm certain she knows we are thinking of her and will be along soon to tell us about her latest guests.. I know this is a busy time for her with so many guests to cover holidays.

Well it seems we are leaving, but no one yet can tell us what that actually means or when it will happen, I suppose all will become clear eventually.
