Happy Monday Staff Room !

[ROSEgarden]

Am off to iron dd's uniform for school phoot's for tomorrow then watch LOST in minute but as im off after school run in morn and will be painting..AGAIN...i wanted to sneak in, hoover round, flick a duster over the bookcase and anti bac the kitchenette..put some fresh cream cakes in fridge for lunch(breakfast) and bought a new dispenser that serves highly caffinated coffee on one side and cool glasses of vodka red bull!

See you all sometime tomorrw, have a good day all.x

Good grief! that is a diverse choice of music! I didn't make the soup from scratch you understand. My mate Heinz made it!

dont mind...magnolia emulsion all over hands at min and not had brekky either so shit with sugar on anything would be nice

I'm doing steak (sprinkled with shake and steak) jacket pots with bacon and cheese mixed in and might do some crispy wedges too and peas and cooked cherry toms and mushrooms and friend egg. (going to do small portions of everything so we aren't too stuffed) dp has cheesecake for afters and i'm having fruit salad with a drizzle of chocolate!

friend egg? Fried!!

LMG is that for lunch or dinner?
how do you have time? sounds really yummy

Peace! Mindee 1 gone home, mindee 2 asleep and dd at preschool so it's lovely!

Still waiting for a reply from Ofsted but will keep you all updated!

Dinner, i'll probably start it at 7pm when dd2 goes down for a nap while dp helps dd1 with spellings it'll probably be ready about 7.30ish. I'll do the jacket pots first and then wedges, Steak, mushrooms and cherrytoms and peas dont take long, might put the mushrooms in with the bacon and cheese.

I've got peace too Sb - I should probably peel some potatoes for later really! I brought baby down at 12.50 and by 1pm he was back asleep in my arms and is still sound asleep........

AARRRGGGHHH

Why do prospective parents arrange to meet us and then don't bother to ring us to cancel when they've found a CM in the meantime?????

Hi all

Been to toddler group now mindees are sleeping hee hee

Rose, ask your EY team at meeting tonight.

FWIW I did my ICP towards the end of 2006 and it was multiple choice then. HTH

Have agood day all, off to college tonight, doing cache unit 3 for my sins !

Yeah Ju we were thew last lot to do the nvq original with 100's of pages of writing..will be very peved off if i have to re do it all...it eans i may not pass if things have changed since last time..which means i WONT be a qualified CM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ooh and update on my music...we have just had will smith on...i am now finished so it will be the sound of my nail brush scrubbing the emulsion off my hands/arms/legs/feet ringing through the house!

sorry they havent botherd turning up/letting you know henni..gits!

Oh how annoying

Hopefully someone at the meeting tonight will be able to clarify.

I am used to it Rose, it was actually another minder who rang to tell me as they were seeing her too.

...why cant they just say we're looking around first instead of giving you hope!

Where's shoshe? [demanding voice] I need a word with her

She's ailing still i think?

A likely story...!

Ahhhh, a moment of peace, late naps from dd and mindee so on for a bit of MN therapy and a cuppa. All ok girls?

PS - what ya'll doing for Shrove Tuesday tomorrow? Am probably having a friend and her 2 yo, plus my children and mindees and doing a pancake snack in the pm. It's my all over the place day so not here long enough to do anything with the a.m. But inspiration would be great!

....Kay wanders in grumbling about thoughtless parents... grabs a pile of choc hob nobs and wanders back out again....

Talking about selfish parents...I am now starting to wonder if the new mindee I am meant to be getting (hence the variation stuff!)is actually going to be coming. Not heard from the parents for a few days and I might just be paranoid but well, guess I just have to wait and see!
DD got sent home from preschool so have had her here when I was looking forward to having it in peace!
No ideas for Shrove Tuesday I'm afraid! Just going to do pancakes for them here too!

Have a look at my www.mumsnet.com/Talk/1375/471312?stamp=080204145428 thread]] about Shrove Tuesday in other parts of the world! You'll be amazed and suprised! I turned Pancake day completely on its head at Rainbows tonight and we made beautiful Mardi Gras masks. Much more fun for 5 & 6 year old little girls!

Ooops sorry!
