Morning! All fine here, thanks! You all settled now after your move (aside from the BT debacle of course!)

Staying in today after school run to play with the toddlers and not to have to spend morning rushing between school runs and outings. The 11.30 preschool pick up is a bit of a pain, but don't tell DS i said that

Morning. I am waiting for my first mindee who is late (normal, sometimes up to 90 minutes!) and then second mindee at 7.45 (who is usually early!)

Shoshe · 20/01/2009 07:12

Yes new house is fab, love it, God knows when we will get BT tho.

Morning! Shoshe, what a nightmare for you!!

Hey No4 - same here, preschool runs after school runs are a pain aren't they?

Hey TBC () - It hurts when they are late that early, you could be sleeping!

Same old here, after schoolie - yesterday we had some swearing and generally being very rough so I need to get some firm and gentle rules laid down.

thebumcleaner · 20/01/2009 08:35

mumsanutter · 20/01/2009 08:44

Morinng all, Sorry to hear that you aren't having a good week Katy.

Mums house is still in chaos - ds1 has got a horrible cough (sounds like croup) and has made himself sick so is off school ill , so have made a doctors appt for him and ds4 who appears to have the same! Only thing is that appt is at 9.40 and I have to drop mindee and ds3 at nursery for 9.30.....

Lets hope that the day gets better!!!! On a plus side I am under 14st the first time since I can't remember and I can get into some size 14 trousers , going to try to be really good for the next 2 weeks so that I feel good about myself when I go to NY

hi everyone - grrrr - i have no work at all now my ad-hoc is finished until sometime(maybe if i'm lucky) in february.
my ds is poorly ATM so at least i didn't have to stress about cancelling mindees - there is always a silver lining

SammyK · 20/01/2009 18:13
