    Collected the kids. Got scared after collecting DS2 when a large group of parents said hi and asked if I was Ds2's mum.... I though 'oh gosh what has he done?'. But it turns out that there is one little boy in his nursery class (of 5!) who is severly allergic to milk. Not jut drinking it, but even getting a splash on his skin. They wanted to ask if I would mind if DS2 got juice on a wednesday instead of milk as the littl eboy has to be moved into another room to eat on his own till everything is cleaned away. No I don't mind at all. I would hate to think that a little boy was being seperated just so my DS2 could get milk instead of juice. Anyway we all agreed and hopefully next week it will be juice with snacks.

    No flying yet, and I'm not sorry I read the paper, watched a documentary on Tv and drank coffee while DS2 was at nursery and I enjoyed it! :rotfl:

    Hugs pooh, it surely doesn't get easier as they grow does it? I think all child benefit things are whilst they are in full time education past 16 so I'd check the website as you can be sure that they will ask for it back once the college submit the date and it arrives at some computer somewhere.

    DS1 has gone to revise. Slowly getting there with the kitchen.

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    I'm not really up on the etiquette here, should I introduce myself or just jump on in?

    Afternoon ladies!

    *Budget better* vibes to pigpen :)

    Dustykitten - IBS much better thanks. Was going to post my loo progress this morning but thought that might be TMI...! :eek: Feeling normal today and for once in over a week - no one has asked me if I'm pregnant! Although, I would really love to be...!

    I got back from my meeting at almost 3pm with a banging headache. I hope it goes by tonight as I'm doing an EFT session with a close friend followed by a yummy dinner of Bacon & Avocado salad in a Garlic & Herb dressing. So GOOD!!!

    How you feeling Michelle?

    Can't remember who posted on the May Grocery Challenge but please can you tell me if this is easy to keep up with, etc. Have been thinking about joining as I spend far too much on groceries and need to sort it out. I did a shop this week so I guess I should include everything I haven't eaten already?

    Ok, need to print off my list so I can sort the house out before 6:30. It's all go go go..................................

    Speak tomorrow ladies. Ash xx

    Gah, I've just spilled tea all over me, the hard drive, and my 5 mth old DD *doh* (thankfully it was verging on too cold to be drinkable) so will pop back shortly!!
