Welcome home Mooloo! You really have brought the sun back with you - it was very hot here yesterday. We did go for a quick bimble along the quay , had a snacky lunch and ice-cream with son before we took him back to the train station, but that was more than enough.
Beanie, Happy Birthday (mine is today)

Didn't get to plan as usual but been busy. DS and I built the gazebo by the back door this morning. I had a customer bring a job at lunchtime so inbetween I cut some of the lawn, did a load of washing and got it in the line. After the customers been I went to Aldi and did some shopping for my Mum and us. Including a tub of ice cream that we all enjoyed late afternoon.
While I was out DS pottered around sorting out the boys things etc, and he cooked fajitas for dinner. This evening after he had bathed the boys and put them to bed, ( I made a couple of cushion covers), and then he built the other unit that Biggest BF was originally going to do for me.
So I have also moved the old conservatory style sofa out to under the gazebo and I have been sitting out by the back Dior cooling down.
I am off to bed I have a trip to the shop first thing to see what I can get into DS's car before customers at 10am, 10.30 and 1.30. I have 4 sets of curtains to shorten tomorrow as well as a multitude of other things.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
A busy day indeed.

Well that's good, if he's working 9 hours at his job he should be able to contribute at least £30/40 to his keep and his children's, for one day. Of course more than one day would be x times that. Since he's not paying out for anything else (apart from snacks, Xbox and drugs).0

He is not buying drugs how many times is he going to be slagged off for that?
He will get paid and he will be dealing with the debts. I will get money for his keep once the debts are dealt with unless I am struggling.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0
