Hi spoonies , welcome to new thread , thank you so so much for supporting me .

ChoccieCornflake · 19/11/2024 22:37

Hello spoonies!

@Imbluedalale Your spoon is gorgeous! I love his purple tail! I think that picture should inspire me to sort out my cutlery drawer - there's all sorts in it and I swear half of them try to stab you when you open it!

Cracking snowman @RaspberryBeretxx ! It tried to snow here but didn't settle. Supposed to be colder tomorrow though!

RaspberryBeretxx · 19/11/2024 22:19

Thank you both! Mr snowman was 15 mins pre nursery fun. I was glad we did it as the nursery garden was brown slush having been stomped on by twenty 3 year olds by the time we got there!

AdmittowearingCrocs · 19/11/2024 22:06

Awww that photo is so cute @RaspberryBeretxx 😃

Apolloneuro · 19/11/2024 21:24

Ha! Love that snowman @RaspberryBeretxx

Thank you so much @Nottogetapenny , I feel positive and happy I just need my children now to complete me . I can’t wait to be sleeping in my bed knowing they are in the rooms next to me and I can’t wait for my youngest to try his very first bath he’ll probably hate it but I’m looking forward to running it for him and getting his room all cosy. I still can’t believe I’m in my own home it’s seems so surreal . I bet your pleased with yourself for doing your freezer you can now tick that off your wish list.
Oh I have something to show you …

Absolutely love the pic of the original spoony 😍😍. Sounds like you’ve had a busy day! Glad you’re getting the help and support and you can enjoy a nice day of sorting tomorrow 💕. Sorry the school aren’t being proactive. Is your son definitely in Liverpool now? I’m just wondering if your ex said it to try and get a reaction but hasn’t actually taken him. Massive hugs - you’re doing amazingly and have a lovely house for your children, they'll be so happy when they see it and you whenever that is (but praying for you that it’s soon).

I’ve had a good work from home day. The snowman did have a carrot for a nose! Here he is (excuse DDs giant head 🤣).

@Giraffe888 the holiday looks beautiful! Have an amazing time. You picked the right moment to go with the icy weather!

Hi @EdgeOfReality , I’m so excited about the wicked movie too.

@BeNavyCrab your card for your friend is beautiful 💕. Hope you’ve had a good day.

sending lots of love to all the spoonies who are going through tough times at the moment or not feeling well 💕💕.

Giraffe888 · 19/11/2024 20:46

the kids pool was lovely and quiet this afternoon

Nottogetapenny · 19/11/2024 20:44

Perfect, just where is should be!

Each day that passes is a day, closer to running that bath 🛀 🥄🏠😘

Giraffe888 · 19/11/2024 20:44

@Imbluedalale im so glad we travelled to the airport hotel last night as our home got snow really bad! I thought of you last night as there was a stompy Pete in the room above us so I got no sleep 🤬

happily settled on holiday now though, it’s been 28 degrees this afternoon

so pleased your first two days have gone well and that you’re been thoroughly spoilt xxx

Ah the ‘joys’ of having people in to fit things 😅

But again yay for your parents and boo to the school.

I’m so thrilled about how your home is coming together for you 🙏🏻

Thank you @TealPoet that’s such a lovely thing to say. I can’t wait to keep giving you all updates . This time next year it should all be done but I said to my mum and dad today that I’m actually glad it going to take some time to get everything as it makes you appreciate it so much more when you do xx

I used to teach in a Primary School. One day, the whole school had to endure I mean enjoy listening to the school orchestra.

At the back was a lovely boy with autism. During a quiet moment, he loudly said “They are AWFUL!”

”Yes.” everyone said to themselves “Yes they are.”

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣That sounds hilarious don’t you just love kids xx

@AdmittowearingCrocs I was just glad that I didn't know what my son had said, before I was talking to his tutor. There's loads of funny stories I could tell you about our kids, where they have different perceptions or interactions with the world. It's part of the fun of having kids who are ND. It's only as they have become older that they are able to explain the way they think to me, that I've had a few lightbulb moments too. I'd never change them for the world and it's not totally negative bringing up kids with SEN. They have some amazing strengths too.

Your kids sound amazing @BeNavyCrab , I can’t wait to hear more stories about them xx

Wow it's so beautiful and modern looking, I know it's a new build but I wasn't expecting it to be so plush. Your parents are being amazing and it's just what you need at the moment. Crafting has been the saviour for my mental health. I never thought of myself as artistic, or more truthfully thought I'm rubbish. However I am finally able to say that I have got a lot better and don't say it anymore. My daughter won't let me say it, she'll tell me off if I do. 😂

Morning spoonies! So glad you had a good sleep Laura and that you have snow! That's lovely that it's nice and quiet. Do you have neighbours yet? Exciting for your fridge and washing machine.

It's my first work day of the week so I'm sitting at my desk with the cat purring on my knee. DD and I managed to make a quick snowman before I took her to nursery so she was happy! She's a bit confused though and thinks the snow means it's christmas so kept asking when we can get a Christmas tree. People drive like idiots, it wasn't terrible on the roads but not great, a bit of slushy snow n the middle. I was going 40 mph (plenty fast enough) and someone decided to drive 2 m from my bumper.

Hi @RaspberryBeretxx , how are you?I still absolutely love your name btw , it’s so classy and elegant . I have neighbours in my right I think the house is still empty on the left . But I havnt been at home for 2 days as been shopping so I’m looking forward to having a day at home tomorrow .
Awww I bet your daughter absolutely loved making a snowman , did you put a carrot in it for its nose?😂Thats so cute that she thinks it’s Christmas because if the snow. You will have to put the tree up now 😂
I hate driving in the snow I’m glad I can’t drive at the moment it really makes me nervous. 2 christmases ago I took my youngest to a football match in Sheffield and it’s very hilly there . I was on a hill at traffic lights my absolute worst nightmare and my foot slipped and car rolled back into car behind me . Took all insurance details etc and got back in car and I did it again! Rolled straight back into him! So now I have a huge fear of hills and traffic lights and driving in the snow xx

Morning Laura and the rest of the Spoonies, no snow here ( I am almost as far south as you can get and we rarely get snow). So pleased you slept well Laura with no disturbance from stompy Pete. Yippee for being able to get washing done today Laura, no more washing knickers in the sink 😁
Have a lovely day sorting stuff in your beautiful new home and enjoy looking at the snow through your patio doors onto your garden. 🏠🥄🫕

Good evening @AdmittowearingCrocs , how are you today? Hope you’ve had a good day despite it being nothing day (Tuesday)😂
It’s so so quiet here and peaceful , I can’t wait for my children to see it.
Im so happy I don’t have to wash knickers in the sink anymore 😂 and that I can have nice smelling clothes again. Took a picture of the snow for you earlier ….

Good morning Laura, and every spoonies. So pleased you slept well, I did too!

It was a seafood platter my sister and I shared yesterday lunchtime, plus we were greedy and got a potion of chips as well😋

Today it’s freezing here but no snow, so I’m going to do a job I hate and that’s to defrost my freezer, it’s so snowed up I can’t remove the drawers! Still if I put the contents outside in this cold they won’t defrost.

Hope you have another lovely day🌺😘

Hi @Nottogetapenny , how’s your day been? Did you manage to defrost the freezer?It’s been absolutely freezing here today.
Glad to hear you slept well and your lunch with your sister sounds delicious and I order chips with everything, isn’t that normal?😂xx

How lovely your first night sounds! Quiet, peaceful, comfy - how good is that?!? And most of all safe! And it’s yours, how amazing is that compared to just a couple of weeks ago! I think it might be nice to let the MP know how happy you are there - he really came through and made them take notice!

And yay for a washing machine and fridge - so exciting! If it’s safe to walk, maybe say hi to your neighbours - one of them might have something for you too, if we’re lucky!

Oh I’m so happy for you. And using way too many exclamation marks 😂

Hi @TealPoet , are you ok and how’s your day been? Good I hope.
First night in house was lovely thank you , I’m really looking forward to spending a full day in it tomorrow and not having to venture out . I havnt met the neighbours yet as it’s been snowing here and very icy and I’ve been out most of day but I will definitely introduce myself soon.
Awww that’s so so sweet of you to send me something , thank you so very much. Your so lovely and kind.
I have emailed my MP and her secretary emailed me back and said they are pleased to hear I’ve now got a home which was lovely.
Going to have a day at home tomorrow sorting a few bits out, sorting my craft box out , doing some washing and I’m going to hoover and mop my kitchen and bathroom floors . I can’t wait xx
