Hi All Sorry don't have time to catch up with everyone. galen so only one more task & the passports are on their way?
Wendy Fab idea with the laminated cards Ds only 4 but I think we can have a stab at it.
Next year DH will be taking care of him while I'm at work. So better try & make things easy for him!
Off to find things to do haven't looked around.

maggie yeah, this happens quite often, or rather has done for the past few months. He doesn't go floppy or anything or I would call 999. Sometimes he seems a bit 'out of it' but that's because he doesn't sleep and can't really settle when his temp's up. Everytime I have called NHS direct, but that doesn't really help tbh. Like I said when he is seen by a doc, his temp is low enough to be ok and they always try to give me anti-b's but say just as a precaution rather than a treatment. And we wonder why so many are immune.
Your poor dd, I wouldn't want to do sports day either. Maybe they should have cancelled it in this heat, it's not like 31 degrees is a normal summer for us so I don't think cancelling would be UR.
TPT He's ok, screaming his head off in the shower now. The only thing about taxi's and things is if I need to get one, it's because I'm on my own and with 2 of them.......not sure if my neighbours would help.
galen sympathies. Hope your ds2 is better soon.

I have looked in local supermarket for a fan, none in stock, will have to go further afield for one. I can put the fan in their room tonight and we'll go to a friends tomorrow hopefully.

swan exactly - was clapping enthusiastically with all others whilst secretly wishing I could crawl into a cool dark grass free cave LOL

Rounders tournament pick up done - less successfuly than I'd hoped. Initially went to wrong entrance of the school (was at a school I've not been to before) DS2 was massively sick everywhere just as we got there, cleaned him up, drove round hot and flustered to find correct entrance, collected DS1 who was last one there ( although I was still before time stated in letter they had finished 1/2 hour early and other parents had been watching) so felt huge surge of mommy guilt for not being able to go and watch (was going to till Ds2 was poorly)....although DS1 very happy cause they won and are off to the final on Mon...he's super chuffed bless him!
Anyway DS1 now home. Had scrambled eggs on toast for tea as risotto now rather dried up...Littlies in bed, DS2 immensely grateful to be back in his cot....

Now need to :
reboot laundry
bigies to bed
Glass of chilled wine and cake!!
Bed

See you all tomorrow!

Ah Galen, these special school functions they are sent to try us..or perhaps it is some isometric (is that right word)testing process where we have to pretend to be v. enthusiastic.
Fund raising cake friend says she did lots of small cakes (flapjacks and cup cakes to buy to eat with tea coffee) and then bigger loaf or round cakes (lemon drizzle, fruitbread, choc etc - she also was a fan of plum streusel cake) for people to buy to take away. Admittedly, it was the waitrose set round where she lives.

evening all
