    You could start off with an airer in the house & then take it from there. :) x

    Thank you

    Will look into a clothes horse :)

    First school thing done. Back for 1pm for the next.

    Still no cheque :cool: fed up of waiting now :o PA has been silent too so no extra from there.

    DD has a birthday party tomorrow to go to. I totally forgot :o

    Need to have a look through the freezer and cupboards and come up with a plan.
    Also have some ironing I want to get done so we can have a lazy day tomorrow. Think the weather is supposed to be nice tomorrow so will try and have a walk to the local park around the birthday party.

    Blimey that cheque seems to be taking ages, how long ago did you cash out? PA very quiet here too. It seems to be all or nothing with it lately.

    Does the 1pm event mean you have to come home again then go back for the DC's or do they let them come home early with parents who are there. Ours used to do that and it was really convenient at times. xx

    Hope it went well at school.

    If your anxiety is bad, don't push yourself, just do things that keep you calmer, I think you said reading....a bit of tlc!

    Part time at school would be good and should be easy enough to arrange with them? Have a great holiday!

    Good morning.

    School went well yesterday we where quite late home though! Then youngest kept me awake all night with her breathing/coughing. Crossing my fingers we can push through at home until Tuesday when the normal GP is open! I can't afford to get to out of hours right now! :o

    I hate seeing her struggle. It makes me so mad :o Angry at the world.

    We have to take DD to a birthday party this afternoon and I think we have to stay as it's at a pub room rather than a child's party place if that makes sense.

    No other plans.

    Have a lovely weekend.
