    Well did half hour ironing and it has made a big dent in the pile so may finish it off tonight (or do ebay stuff). I also scoffed some of the littles stirfry left overs from last night for lunch.

    Just off to chuck stuff for pizza dough in BM then off to pick up littles. Got the dressing and facepainting to do once they get back, thats if we can get DD2 from under the table (thats where she spent halloween last year after the first trick or treaters called - bless her!)

    More than half of the washing is dry now, I'm hoping the rest will dry too now there is more room to spread it out. The sun is behind next door's tree now though so it's just shade but still breezy.

    I hope we don't get any trick or treaters here because the house will be empty for two hours, don't want anything nasty going on when there is no-one here and the pets are home alone :( I normally leave lights on when I go to work but I'm going to leave it dark tonight so they won't think somebody is in ignoring them and turn nasty. We have some nasty teenagers around here.

    Ooh MandS have just sent me a voucher for a bottle of wine if I visit the big store on Friday - sounds better than flying to me!

    Hi ladies, tis nice to see the site back up and running!:D Went away for a few days Saturday so have only just got back online. Have driven for 4 hours with the kids today so I won't be doing anything apart from checking out the freezer to see what we can eat and making a cuppa. Was good and left the house in a pretty good state and is nice to come back to it that way;)

    Got to clear up the cat litter and mop the kitchen floor later as we put it in there whilst we were away, but other than that I think I'll have a rest!

    I have missed too much to go back and read all the posts, but hope you have all had a good week so far;)

    Dusty that is gross! You MUST do it and take pics! :rotfl:Kids will love it!

    Sexymouse Hope your friends LO is well now, sunlight and fresh air do wonders. Both mine were under the UV lamps for some time, with the little stick-on sun shades! Bless. Is he/she doing the shaky-baby thing?

    Pigpen I don't envy you! I'm cutting back this christmas but it must be like a military operation buying for your lot!

    Now, DLA form. Last year I managed to get an increase from lower rate to middle rate, so hoping that it will stay the same at the very least, though, being honest, his mobility is not that great. He fell in asda the other day and I got a shocked look when I said 'oh don't worry, he is used to it'. Had to explain that he always falls, not that I thump him or anything! Anyway, look through the form, sit with a notepad and then mega note taking the next couple weeks. So prepare for me being depressed. It's grueling filling it out.

    Flying? What flying?

    DS1 got a party at 6pm, dinner in the oven (pop corn chicken and wedges, quick an easy). DS2 won't be going out though, he looks knackered!

    My son fell flat on his face last night walking down the street.. and he is nearly 12!!! He dithers and meanders all over the place at the best of times but we were doing something 'different' (ie we walked a different route!) he was at my left.. and I was just walking.. and I heard a big splat.. turned around and he is laid on the floor.. face down.. massive hole in his new school trousers and another in his knee!!!

    Hi tiamai,

    Yes thank you, my friend's little one Sophia is doing much better now. She was a normal pink colour in the photo my friend sent me, and very cute!
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
