Morning all and hope those of you who had movement last night are ok.

Didn't notice anything here.

Just heard on the news that there are protestors on the house of commons - don't know why I'm telling you but that is about as exciting as it is here this morning.

Finding it difficult to get flying. Tidied the kitchen and that is it. Going to strip the bed and then off for a mystery shop.

Feel a bit down this morning for no reason - maybe it is post leaving the PTA but don't feel sad about that - I'll be fine.

Morning :wave:

Didn't feel the earth move here last night in more ways than one - pity!

Got the day off today it seems as no jobs been given but I am working Saturday this week so that means I'll have to do what I can today flying wise, never got round to the flying list yesterday although the dailies were done, littley was clingy so we just snuggled till I went to work, she's still off school today but a bit brighter -she's asking for McDonalds so must be lol.

So today I need to do my room and littleys room, the living room is super-fine so just a lil hoover was needed in there which I did earlier. Already done my dailes and got the WM on, it's lovely here today and a bit blowy so they'll be going out on the line. Got leftover party food for nibbles today (yay) will think about tea later, best get cracking.

Before I do anything else I need to rant.. big time rant!!

1. I have 5 children at primary school.. and htey are doing this sponsored football thing which a couple of them really want to do.. so.. the class etacher said just to put 50p on DD3's form and she would be fine but they weren't allowed to do it if htey had no sponsors.. this would mean £2.50 for the 5 of them.. so I put 50p on their forms and sent them into school. Now.. the officious hag that has year 6 is also the assistant head took the form to the class teacher I had spoken to and had a right go at her and even shouted !!! at her about this when she argued the point that I have 5 children and £2 each would be £10!!! That is heck of a lot of money!!!! Anyway.. I said this teacher has no right using anykind of negative tone to her and she should put in a complaint.. the other teacher is a bully.. pure and simple! She didn't say it to me because she wouldn't flipping dare!!!!!!!!!!

2. One of the nrusery teachers asked me to take Tiddles to nursery in the buggy if it meant we got her there 15 minutes sooner and they would permit me to leave it in the school.. there was no way I was leaving it outside in the damp! So I left it in the hall after clearing it with them.. then last week they asked me not to leave it there.. so when I saw another buggy in there today I kicked off.. it has been there before but the childs mother is Polish.. and the Asian woman who leaves hers in the cloakroom.. so I stropped.. BIG time strop.. it is ok for them to have theirs inside but not me.. well..

I am now going to make an appointment to see the head teacher and discuss my 'issues' because they are rapidly growing in number!!!

I don't even have PMT.. what will I be like whwen I do?????????? lol

Pigpen, don't know what to advise, but just sending hugs your way. How's your throat today?

:cool: ORF update :cool:

Buster has arrived and looks dead cute too - small but perfectly formed! As soon as my son gets in from work, he will not be allowed to do anything until he's installed it (he's in charge of the hardware installations in my house).

Taffy Buster is my nice shiny new network camera - called Buster after the spy Buster Crabb. Therefore, the mystery parker operation will be happening EVERY day I shall install it so it's looking at the drive and I can monitor it remotely from work Once the perp is caught, it can then move to the kitchen so I'll have my very own birdcam I can watch from work.

:cool: update off :cool:

Big worms or thread worms?

Thread worms are just tablets for adults and liquid for kiddies, I have some in the cupboard!

Total over-reaction, I agree. Got the same chance as getting them from a nursery with an infected child as walking into McDonalds... or anywhere else for that matter.... A big 'hand washing' drive would be better!

Would be funny if a kid did dig up a worm! Was it all the 'soccor moms' who were going mental?

New bunnies!!! cutttteeeee!!!!!! How old?

The bunnies are about 7 weeks and at vet for their first jabs later today. they are adorable.. my big bunny is mummying them and herding them up which is cute but annoying the little ones they'v enot been with their mum for over a week.

Oh yes.. the yummy mummies whose little darlings don't know they joy of digging in mud or going for a bath afterwards.. I HATE their mentality.. their children are always namby pamby limp things, the girls whine incessantly and their boys always run wild.. *SLAP SLAP SLAP*

And I can't reworm mine anyway so have gone into school with as many germs, worms and 3 fewer headlice than they came home with yesterday!!! I worm mine every 3-4 months like dogs because they are always rummaging in filth and grot!

Killing me after my heap big rant at school and then 20 minutes on the phone with my mother then I got pee'd off with hubby...

He was moaning about this memo he got in his desk.. most of it was not his job then the ps said 'we need a meeting with jim'.. I said write on it.. 'not my job'... Then about the meeting put.. 'the only thing to discuss is the lack of a decent pay rise!!'

pigpen

Morning

We felt the quake big time last night,OH thought it was 2 lorries crashed head on and went outside then realised the rumblings were still going on!

Soappie - Cant wait to hear the next installments of operation ORF.

Michelle - you are a star and how you manage to fit everything in on your list I will never know. Glad to hear hubby is taking taking care of you as you sound like the type to overdo it just because something needs doing!

Pigpen - I love your rants about the school and the way they handle things, IMO I think they seem like a bunch of idiots (the ones in your school - NOT any of the lovely teachers on here of course!)

embb - glad littleone sounds like she is improving

:grouphug: for Dusty and you will be alright

Taffy - you sound like you have really got into the OS way of things and flylady :T

To everyone else a big hello and hope your day goes well.

I have taken another day off work today. Was actually on my way in when took a call from my mum to say my gran died this morning. I was going to carry onto work but stopped to get my head together then sat in floods of tears so decided to come home. OH thought I'd crashed the car when I came in at first but is being very supportive and kids were very good about it. DD openly cried but was then fine but I am a little worried about our laddo as he gave me a big hug but said very little before he went to school. Hope he's ok but have told him to come home if he feels he wants to.
Nanny was 95 so although she was a great age it was still unexpected. In some ways I am relieved as well as sad because she had been in her own home up until 3 months ago and it was where she wanted to die, she hated the care home so at least she didnt have to suffer it too long and she is back with grandad now.

Sorry a bit of an emotional rollercoaster today but I am going to really get flying to keep busy so may call in later for an update on how much I've done.

Love to all
Kaz

PS Zed42 - I shall be 11 on friday
