Aaargh : another week,another kids birthday party. My DDs 12 and I'm feeling just a little jadedtired. This afternoon it's a girl classmate's fancy dress ice skating party fgs.I'm stressed out, don't have the money or desire to hire costume nor the creative, imaginative spirit right now to think of anything nor sewing skills to rustle anything up - and we've only got a few hours. I know I've made a rod for my own back in so far as I've brought my kids up to strive for originality and avoid cliches, so my DD wants something different, and won't be fobbed off with a witches hat left over from Halloween or cat's whiskers drawn on with eyeliner... help!!!
