Thankyou for a new thread.
We've been tidying up and cleaning stuff since I got up about 7.30 ish . I've also decluttered 2 cups of tea. Taking slow so I can still walk tomorrow 🙃
Kids fed.
We have a outreach worker coming today to meet us they work for credu. Due to me and Ds2 having disability / ds2 additional needs. I'm really nervous but she seems lovely from talking to her on the phone. I hate opening my door to people and I also hate feeling like that which is why I'm here 😁

Good afternoon 😁
I overslept again this morning, but I am on holiday so I don't care! 🤣
I have stripped my bed - kitten had left a nasty smudgy mark on it 😕 Vets booked to get her checked.
I have sorted & cleaned one box so far - play dough. Some bits added to the CS bag.
Next small to do list:
Hang out bedding
Set WM going again
Book blood test
Another box!
HB don't overdo things - you are supposed to be resting! I hope the pain is bearable and that you are on the mend
Iona you need to take it easy too!
Round how are you my lovely? Are you quiet because you are busy? x

Bedding hung out
WM on
Blood test booked
2 boxes emptied containing spare clothes/coats/wellies that are never used! I will wash some & send to CS. Parents should provide spares, but I will potentially have 4 potty training two yr olds, so should I keep some? 🤔 (and that is why I have too much stuff!!) HELP!! 🤣
Just having lunch....

Hello all you totally wonderful ladies! I've been overwhelmed by all your kindness, messages and gifts, and it has TOTALLY got me through to the end of the month.
Without it, I'm not sure what might have happened. I want you to all know how special and important you all are to me, and how much i appreciate you all. Even though I've only met a few of you in person, the support and kidness you've shown me has been utterly amazing and has reduced me to a sobbing mess.
I've dragged my family through this awful summer holiday and there's now light at the end of the tunnel, for which I am grateful. I'm still a bit lost in the woods, but I'm not so scared and hopeless now (and hubby isn't buried under the patio), which feels so much better. Everyone is fed and nobody dead.
Once the boys go back to school, I'll be fully up and running, but for now, Im just fluttering about.
Flyladies are awesome - never forget that!12 -

Evening ladies
Today has been much busier than planned. Beds stripped, line dried and remade. Went into the town - ordered an eye watering amount of animal feed at scary costs but needs must. Piles of F&V from waste food place brought home, they knew I was feeding some to the animals and didn’t mind in the slightest.Treated us to fish and chips which was delicious. And now DD has requested a cinema trip with her birthday funds. Given that it’s just the two of us, and we so rarely do anything like that, I’ve agreed.Also ordered more school trousers, bought DS a new packed lunch box, and DD a new refillable water bottle. I had hoped the government might offer all children in primary free hot school dinners for this winter, but it doesn’t seem likely, so we’re back to the joys of packed lunches (I refuse to pay £2.50 PPPD for school dinners - there is no way what they receive costs anything like that).
Love to all xx10
