I think she should be okay I spoke to out of hours and started some meds. Her nurse will come tomorrow anyway.
I think I'm done for Xmas now. I might try and find some more reading books for the smalls but I don't like paying post online :rotfl: Town was crazy however so I might leave it.
It took me ages to collect what I wanted and I'd reserved online!“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0 -

Got the decorating done finally. Just going to touch up a few bits of door surrounds tomorrow when I get chance.
School has cost over £130 this month along with the fair and I'm sure there's bits I've not wrote down!
Have a few more bits to sort on the house this week and I need to sew the tablecloth edges to stop the kids pulling at it!
Other than that I think it's going to be just staying alive :rotfl:“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0 -
You have worked very hard indeed. I hope you qwqqill have a little time for yourself before school finishes. Well done.

I cheated and got a friend in to help finish the decorating or I don't think it'd ever have been done“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0

Youngest is recovering I think .. We definitely have the side effects of the med showing through so hopefully its working on the things it should be too! No ice skating though
Mr Sainsbugs been and all put away. I have some presents to wrap but I need paper!
We are going to make the teachers gifts over the weekend and the gifts for the Grandparents on their dads side. No idea when they'll turn up to visit though :cool:
So a lot of baking and Christmas things going on. We also have some things to drop into the food bank.
Not much else happening. Taking it slow
I have no credit either need to top up my phone. Will do it when I go for Gas/Electric.“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0
