have spent nearly an hour in th ebedroom but it looks much better now, i hoovered behind all dd toy boxes, cleaned off th ewindow ledge and got rid of all the hotspots. so feeling very pleased with it in there. didnt take her into nursery as she didnt want to go and didnt want to force after her night last night. so have managed to distract her while i culled the bits if hers lying around for her to spot something through the bin bag. i told her its staying there and she now wants to go to nursery to tell my friend i'm mean!!
am now going to go round and see if the man is at the garage today to get my car sorted and go in the chemist for ds's prescription

swan dont blame your children for eating the strawberries quick, i have found a new place to go picking so hopefully will be doing that at the weekdn with dc

[galen]

[swanriver]

You needed a lollipop too Galen! I think they all deserved one...
another hubpge restoring me to sanity and smiles - thankyou!
How is the ds2 waking going?

[swanriver]

Further re: lollipops and suchlike...This morning dd was trying to find some special sellotape which we had bought last week - nothing would satisfy but this essential item in its own dispenser. Finally located in car, after much gnashing of teeth. But without that sellotape she could not rest, or go to school even. They just have a singleness of purpose which I suppose is admirable

[Starbear]

Swan It must be drummed into them, place for everything and everything in it's place.
I haven't started yet with Ds (4yrs) but I'm going to start tonight!
Galen How the passport job going? Will you need another kick up the bum? I'm going to write another letter to nursery tonight. Join me in the paperwork quest? We will conquer it.

Hi all - FLYing went out of the window this morning as we had the call that my borther's wife has had her second baby boy! Lovely -all good: quick labour without any problems. Little Rudy is here!!

Off to get dc's from nursery and then crack on. Yesterday's afternoon nap almost turned into an all-nighter as dp left me to sleep and I woke up at 9.00pm!

Hats off to you galen for 6 LO's!

[scattyspice]

Hi all.

Congrats Laura. I'd love my sis to have a baby.

Hi everyone else.

To do
No after school activities (yay)
Must do ironing (am wearing a very crinkled uniform lol)
book Peter Pan ticets for trip to London (yay)
get stuff organised for mum visit this weekend.

BBL

[dylsmum1998]

galen i love reading your hubpages, always make me

my handirack and handiholdall just arrived so that will make things easier when we go to France. dd is sat in the empty box eating her lunch while i grab a few mins on here.

have taken ds prescription to chemist, there was a half hour wait so will go back for it later

the garage is shut yet again, can only guess that there is illness preventing them from working this week, will try again tomorrow

laura congrats on baby Rudy birth, as Tmh my brother lived with me for 2 years, it was an experience, and i am now determined my children will not ever be 14 years old!!
good luck

[scattyspice]

TSK re the garage Dyl.

Forgot to add:
To do:
clear and clean fridge and make list for dh
phone friend who is trying to arrange a night out.
phone mum to see what time she is arriving

[MaggieTulliver]

Prof - suggest you set up a good new bank account and give them all of your details of other accounts. They can close them all, and arrange for direct debits etc to be moved for you.

[Starbear]

prof We are in the same boat with finances.We keep promising to sit down together and work it out but it never happens. That reminds me must cancel Lovefilm member ship never send films back in time, go off the idea of them when they arrive!
Collected ds from nursery. Going to have a cuppa & get on with the rest of the list!

[grouchyoscar]

Hello

Busy in Grouchyland. Lots of AutoFLYing (doing it without noticing) and trailing to and from school.

Today I cluttercleared the bottom of the smellies cabinet, y'know, all the gifts people feel they should buy you but, you never use IYKWIM. The school fair can raise some funds with them. 2 full bag for life carriers to the fancy goods stall. It's better than them collecting dust in the bedroom TBH

Going swimming tonight, then shopping. Have great days ladies

[TheMadHouse]

Maybe we should all endevour ro do the fly finances thing that scatty Did - maybe she can ge our guru. Only once I am back from my holidays though.

I can vouch for Nationwide - they are great - we have all our accounts with them, even the childrens and can see everything at a glance on the PC internet banking page.

I am back from phyc appointment and they are going to ring GP's and get my script sorted. It is possibly just down to the GP not receiving the letter yet

At least I have a plan of action regarding moving forward. We are going to try to achieve an acceptance of my phicical scaring/limitations. So at least I wont feel so trapped by the way I feel/look. Some tools to help me with the negatives and build on the previous CBT I have had, which worked well for me. They all agree that I am doing well to be at this place and realise that some outside input was necessary before things got worse and that they can help.

Nothing done fly wise - house looks like a bomb has dropped will tackle the spare room once the boys are collected in 10 mins (dropped them at creshe for my appointment). I wish you could get finanicail help for things like that.

[littleboyblue]

Laura Congrats to your sister. How lovely

I was thinking of taking a look at the finance bit, but think I need to stick with just this stuff for now.
My morning and evening routines are getting easier to do, each still takes about 3 hours(!)but is workable.
One of todays self appointed jobs is to wipe down all toys. I could do it now as both ds's are asleep but can't be ar**ed. Someone give me a kick up the bum!
