    Pigpen, hope the lad gets well soon and isn't too damaged! And, that it was his baby teeth...

    No, he looked about 14 and they were his growed up teeth!!

    Embb.. he was with 2 friends and one stayed with him and the other went like a bat out of hell to get the boys parents and by the time the ambulance got there his dad was with him.. I think he had actually ran there!!!

    He didn't look too broken though so hopefully he will be fine in a few days.. I'll have DD1 ask at school he went to the same school as her so she will probably get to hear.

    evening!

    Well tea scoffed and cleared up after - even shined the sink so dont have that battle to face tomorrow.

    Our bedroom is now ready to sleep in so thats a bonus.
    Ebay parcel courier collected at 4.50pm, then noticed they have put the wrong house number on their paperwork (checked my order confirmation and I had entered it correctly - phew! So have emailed both companies in the hope they can get their bums in gear and deliver it to the right address. The label I put on the parcel was correct too).

    Tomorrow will be:

    Flylady task
    Make hungarian goulash soup(??) was in slowcooker recipe booklet and sounds "interesting" so thought I'd give it a go.
    Cheque to bank
    Collect parcel from PO
    Ironing (half hour should empty basket)
    DD1 swimming and DH out at work function so chippy tea:j :j

    Am going to have early night, hoping the fresh sheets will make me nod off easily. Had trouble getting off last few nights and with DD2 waking me up in the night I am starting to feel and look (more) like a zombie.

    Pigpen - thats sounds horrific hope your littles dont get bad dreams! We walked passed the cemetory the other day and DD1 asked if her NannyGrans (great gran) was going to die soon "'cos she is very old", I said hopefully not. She then asked if everyone who died was buried. I try to explain about cremation in simplified terms and said that the ashes can then be sprinkled somewhere the person loved or put in an urn/vase. She then gave me the prinkly hair thing by telling me she wants to be kept in an urn with us forever.
  • Evening ladie not much flying done yet today. Work in am, went straight to Argos to get my friend a cure hand/foot print plaster cast thing for their new baby after. Que in argos was horrendous but had to wait cos really wanted to give it to them today. Got home at 2pm had a quick lunch and then went to get dd1 from school. Went straight onto friends from there to see new baby, so cute! Then got home in time to start tea. Then it was bathtime for kids and bedtime stories etc. Went upstairs to start my flying about 10 mins ago but dd1 was still awake(1hour after she was put to bed:mad: ) so have come back down and will do downstairs s&s first I suppose!:rolleyes:

    Ok must move from the computer or I'll be here all night!

    Will challenge myself to 30 mins and see what I can get done!

    evening all

    site keeps going down for me, guess it's still a bit dodgy so don't know if this will post or not! hopefully lil_me has got lots of our emails now in case it goes down properly (OMG i sound like an addict....)

    well, just had hm lentil curry - very nice, burnt it to the first pan but managed to decant it before it got too bad so now have one pan soaking with bio washing powder in it!

    will update my list later but still need to put clean bedding on and hoover the living room, that will basically do for today, quick wipe round the bedroom too and will sort the clothes tomorrow.

    done some more interview prep today and had a good meeting with someone about it, friend who is a council youthworker, so gave me lots to read and lots of buzz words to say! will get my presentation etc done tomorrow.

    anyway, hope everyone is ok, will post my list later!
