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

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

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

Hi @EdgeOfReality , of course I don’t mind , the more the merrier and you’re more than welcome to join the spoonies . Thank you so much for reading my thread and for your lovely kind words , they honestly mean so much. When I get abit more sorted I’m going to make a collage of all the lovely things you have all said to me and frame it and put it above my bed xx

Hi @EdgeOfReality welcome to the spoonies gang.

Are you going to see wicked at the weekend?

You sound so positive and happy now, Its so lovely, to see your updates, from where you started to now.
Hope you are able to have a lovely chill out day tomorrow after another good, but busy day today.
Yes my freezer all done, thank goodness. It took me ages to do it! My own fault for leaving it so long. 😘🌺🏠🥄

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 …

Spoon has his home now xx

Oh the original spoonie 🥰

Yay, our namesake in its rightful place 😍

I'd love to see some of your crafts, when you are settled Laura. In the interim here's one of the cards I made for a friend's birthday to look at.

@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

Perfect, just where is should be!

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

the kids pool was lovely and quiet this afternoon

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 💕💕.

Ha! Love that snowman @RaspberryBeretxx

Awww that photo is so cute @RaspberryBeretxx 😃

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!

I've read through all your posts on your last three threads today and want to say you are such a lovely, thoughtful, strong woman who has been through the most horrendous things and you deserve so much happiness and peace in your life and nothing but the best.

I'm absolutely delighted to see your beautiful home you are now in and that you have a safe space to make happy memories. You really are amazing, wishing you and your children lots of happy times in your new home. So lovely of your parents to have helped you out so much. Hope you have a lovely sleep on your second night.

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!

Hi @Imbluedalale and all the Spoonies! Am so excited to see a picture of the beautiful original spoon in his new home! It all looks lovely and I am jealous of the snow.

So glad you have your parents back supporting you Laura. Am actually wondering if I could borrow them to help with sourcing curtains and blinds, giving advice on rugs, building furniture, rearranging rooms and all the other house things I haven’t managed to do since moving back in four years ago after renovations ☺️? 😂😂

Loving the SEN kid stories. Had to take mine off for a discreet chat recently when he referred to a village fundraising event as “a complete scam”, fortunately he wasn’t overheard. He asked me why people didn’t just donate money instead of going through this, then when I said because doing it this is more fun, replied very directly “No, it’s not”. I had some sympathy. Mercifully he managed to get the spirit of it though…

Also so glad you messaged the MP, it’s so nice when they hear the positive outcomes.

School sound really slack. Reiterate that this is a safeguarding issue which you are raising. Maybe ask for a specific time today when the safeguarding lead will be available for a call? They don’t need to have read the email, you can tell them what it says. Also say things like “I can stay on the line whilst you check..”. Apologies if I’ve missed info but is your son at school or absent?

@Imbluedalale yay for spoons new home! so happy you have a freezer stocked and you get to spend today settling in and starting to make it all cozy 😊 loving that snowman @RaspberryBeretxx i had a very heavy 'blizzard' on the walk to the office yesterday morning in central london nad somewhat resembled that by the time i got in ! xx

That’s absolutely beautiful @BeNavyCrab , I’m not as good as that lol but I try. I bet your friend loved it especially as it was made by you xx

Morning @Giraffe888 , how are you today? Your holiday looks gorgeous, wow look at the sky , beautiful. I’ve never been to fuerteventura before but I love the Canary Islands. I bet the kids are loving it . Have you had any cocktails yet?
My niece lives in Tenerife , the north part . She was working in portals neus in Majorca and had a day off at the beach and she met a Spanish guy who was from Tenerife but working in Majorca as he was a police officer and they got married and had 2 children and now she owns a women’s gym there.
So pleased to hear the weather is lovely for you I really hope you have a fabulous time xx
