Dot has been having a very very Dot day... My head hurts extra and I have a twitchy eye. I am seriously considering asking if she can do a couple of days at school because she is doing nothing at home. She managed her clarinet lesson but she won't even look at the school work.. I can sit her down and set her up to work but I can't make her open her eyes, stop screaming, not bite herself or pull out her own hair and actually do any of the work.. Her insanity is rubbing off on the others.. Twinkle has started jumping and Pixie has become very rude, Dot isn't rude she just says what she thinks, Pixie is very deliberate with her words.
Online school meeting for Moomin tomorrow who, it appears, sneaked out at some point while i was not in my chair.. probably while doing lunch so I am not at all happy or impressed and she will be getting told so. I don't care that she is 18 she has some responsibility and it is only respectful to say you are going out.. I am cross.
I got my freebies from Derm0res.. my £15 of yarn is more like £30 so I need to plan some projects!

Well - I didn't get as much done as I had hoped.......no surprises there! I am so rubbish!!
The car has been serviced at zero cost. DH, DD2 & I walked to town to have a cv-19 test (LFD) - all negativeDD2 has now temporarily moved back to BF's house. I can't lie - life runs a little smoother when she is not here! I will miss her while I am working though, as she loves playing with the little ones! (well, little one, as I only have 1 child at the mo)
Kitchen doesn't look too bad. WM & TD x1. I have cleared some emails, printed out my PLI insurance certificate and dealt with various emails from the council (all ticked off my to do list).
Paid stuff tomorrow. I will walk the dog and small person together tomorrow - 2 birds and 1 stone, and all that!8 -
Up bright and early here, OH gone to the office today,
Bed is stripped and in WM
Put kitchen to bed last night and OH unloaded DW this morning so all is nice
Having coffee, then will sort out pellet stoves before I hoover downstairs
Admin to do too,
See you later7 -
Morning xx
Back to the paid stuff today for me 😔. I don't want to go but I'm up, dressed, breakfasted and my lunch is packed. They've been short staffed while I was off so there's plenty of work to do when I get there. I'll put my head down and get stuck in. I don't mind work, I'm just averse to peopling 🙃
Empty sink, empty wash basket, more floor. I'll be a flylady yet!!!
Much love to you all

Not much done here again. I vac'd up before work, and checked the bank accounts and emails. We have been for a walk with the dog. Lunch stuff in the DW. I have also booked an appointment at the opticians for next week, and emailed someone about getting the carpet cleaned (2 frogs!) I am waiting for a reply re the carpets...
DD2 has messaged to say the she and BF are viewing a flat later today! It came as a bit of a shock tbh!! She still thinks that they won't be able to afford it, but BF's dad saw it and said to have a look (he is a builder, and going with them). They need to get a place of their own really as I think we are all ready!!I won't tell DS yet, as he may get excited!! He is currently in the the tiny, overflowing box room! DD's bedroom is huge!! I can't lie - I am a little excited too!
