Wednesday staff room

Thanks dmo {grabs toast}

On the bright side at least ds being ill means no school runs for me! (Although losing two days pay puts a dampener on it tbh).

feel really bad for you Kay wished you lived near me!
its windy here too and raining but at least you get to school quicker
putting on some toast in a mo if anybody wants some

Sorry you are feeling fed up crace, I can see your point entirely.

I am fed up today I text all the parents last night to say I could work today, then ds woke me at 6am being sick! Obviously I have told them all I can't work again today but reaaly felt bad about it.

I am also panicking about finances, we just can't seem to get on track, DP been made redundant twice in last 12months and is now doing a rubbish pay job miles from home. I just can't seem to earn enough.

Sorry to go on but it is really getting me down and I am so fed up of worrying and struggling.

Oh, I just blew in from the windy city, the windy city is mighty pretty!

Car's fine, I hope. Just thought it would be a good idea to have a service done now, rather than run anything into the ground before the MOT is due.

I'm going to have half an hour on here, then I'm going to paint the outside of the house! Dolls house that is!

EM - how did you make your crispy cakes in the end - can you share your recipe?

Hi ML - how's things?

Mo -hope all ok on car

SB - poor dd Hope she gets better soon!

I've got my usual two but finding this week very hard for some reason. I am convinced it's the stress of things yet to come with baby and DH going off to America. He's got to go in early April for a week too and it's really getting me down. 1) that's MY home and I can't go home as too late for me to fly now 2) how nice and easy for the daddies to swan off to wherever they need to huh? I just don't understand it really - he's got to go in April for part work/part personal as he needs to go back to renew his VISA in the States in case we ever want to move back. Frankly if that were me, my children would be coming with me. He's stopping by the NY office while there but still - I would want my kids with me. I don't get it.

morning all. am debating whether to drive to drop in or risk walking in the wind! only one in a buggy today and dd hoping on and off the back! other lo is still poorly - mum keeps saying teeth but thinking bug! politley suggested trip to docs today as it's day 5 of being poorly, but he's ok in himself.
made large batch of choc crispy cakes yesterday, am off to buy mars bars today to make some more! have hidden them well in the kitchen and dd seems to have forgotten we made them bless. really hope it doesn't rain too hard on saturday for said egg hunt!
so walk or car, walk or car, wlak or car mmmmmmmm excerise good for me but trees dangerous!

Morning all! I was scared to open the curtains this morning, in case everything had been blown away! Jeez, its windy! Got to take my car for a service this morning. So I'm off any second and then walk to school. Then I'm coming home to paint DD's dolls house. She's got one of those 12th scale posh doll houses, which is more like a peice of furniture really and like a real house, it could do with a lick of paint! See you after 9!

Waiting for mindees to arrive, Good morning to you and everyone else who comes in.
