Soappie I did that and had broken the toe next to my little toe
- nothing they'll do though (not even x-ray it) so best advice is painkillers and bandage or plaster it to the good toe next to it, to keep it straightish, then just be gentle with yourself. Huge hugs and I hope it's just a bruise x

Well, as yesterday was well and truly written off, I'm very behind, but still ahead of where I would be on a normal week, and I think I need to cut myself some slack as it is my first week of flying!

Re the disability thing its unfortunate but true. I used to see kids kicking off and think they were just naughty but a friend of mine worked at a specialist home for children with autism and it made me realise that a percentage of these "naughty" kids were not just playing up (hope that makes sense). It must be very hard coping with a meltdown and having people look at you like your doing something wrong or wondering why you are not doing something. I know one time they took a group out to the local shopping mall and one of the kids had a meltdown (sorry dont know technical term:o ) and for his own safety she basically had to sit on him (he got very violent and was a danger to himself). She had several people come over and have a go at her, not what you need when you dealing with a hurricane.
Right mop and mow.0 -

Just having a tea break.
Hugs Aimee - you're going through a rough patch!
Thanks for your concerns over my toe. I don't think it's broken, just bruised (I can wiggle it a bit, albeit painfully!). It's easing a little and I can do slippers! Will cancel my physio appointment as that's a bit of a drive away but do have to go out to Tesco (which is only a short drive) at some point to stock the freezer for the kids and get a couple of bits and bobs for my hol. I shall brave a trainer then...I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Oh Dusty, I was just about to crack on with a HHC, but I've used up all the hot water this morning! I'll need to surf for a while until I've got some0

SSL - Yep, year 2 in school and she's doing SATs :mad: I can understand to some extent the need to assess how well the child is doing (and the teacher is teaching) but surely there must be another way of testing them while they're in infants!
Not getting on too well this morning. Trying to sort out finances but some things are still up in the air and its difficult to make the books balance ATM. Especially when I've spent a fortune in the post office on Ebay postage :rolleyes: Which is something else I need to sort out - whether I'm actually making any profit from the ebay sales or not :rotfl:
Good news though is that I've received a grant from the SLC for my OU course, which I've transfered to my savings account and later, when I've worked out how much I've spent so far for uni (internet fees etc) then I'll transfer that amount over to my bank account
Right, time to put the milk in my tea and get on. :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0
