    think its too early to send the kids to bed so I can have a snooze on the sofa?

    DS2 still being sick at nights and I'm knackered right now. Just made dinner, DS2 only just started eating it (he had delusions that if he screamed long enough I'd give in and give him crisps). Gave him medised earlier on and it's just made him tired and cranky, so he is going to bed soon as he has ate his dinner.

    Will get some stuff done later tonight, I have been tottering about, not doing much, but enough. Got my butcher order in for christmas. Hubby off tomorrow but I have to take my Dad out in the morning.

    Not to self, DS1 school party, put party clothes in bag. Write down collect butcher meat, sat b4 2pm on calender. Email girls about plagio stuff. Write letter to Lloyds about bank charges. And one to beneficial finance about PPI, or get hubby to phone.

    What can I get hubby for his christmas???

    Gosh you ladies like to talk!:rolleyes:
    Just skim read the whole thread, hugs to all that need them, but especially denise and jjef. Had a big lump in throat reading that denise. It puts all the little niggles into perspective!
    Computer seems to have taken a permanent dislike to me, and some little sod sent a worm yesterday which is not helping matters!
    Anyway, my house is a bombsite as i have slipped off the flying wagon:rotfl:
    I will get back up to speed!!!!
    Going to go and throw DD in bed then have a bit of a tidy:D
