Oh hello, where are you going? somewhere nice?

I'm a bit bored today, might go and do a workout in our gym

Hello facelikethebackofabus - fab name

I'm kind of around today on and off, but I try to be more 'off' because otherwise I get distracted by it and ignore my children, which is fine in itself, but then causes more trouble than it's worth, with the inevitable bickering etc. that ensues!

They're all distracted now, playing on a noisy footprints thing - the big three are jumping up it and kissing DD4 who is playing with the lights bit at the end .

DD1 and I have just blitzed the living room and it looks flipping fantastic! She is a star and I am really grateful for her help (she's reading over my shoulder ).

DD2 and DD3 are monkeys that ran around playing with a ball even though I yelled at asked them not to. Now they're all piled on top of eachother . I foresee tears in the next few minutes!

Off to go and do something constructive and be a good parent. Ok, no I'm not, they've just asked if they can go outside on their scooters! Yay! More MN time!

How do you like my running commentary????

facelikethebackofabus, hi and welcome.
Do you really have your own gym? wow

Off to watch DH play cricket, have decided against the nature walk for today as couldn't find the route I'd saved and also D has rang 3 times giving me directions to where he is. I think he really wants us to go and watch him .

Sooo packing up the ball/scooters etc and once my monkeys get dressed we'll be off.

Have good days y'all

bellavita · 13/09/2009 10:53

Morning ladies

Another gorgeous day, think it will be hotter than yesterday so am going to head out into the garden and potter around soon.

Banana for brekkie.....am going to turn into a banana at this rate but I'm not sick of them yet so all is good

Have been doing 30-40 mins exercise most days and eating around 1000 calories but I don't seem to be losing anything....

OMG, what has happened to my DDs???? Someone has taken them and replaced them with super independent, imaginative children!

They're now doing painting pens at the kitchen table! I have never been able to sit on my bum rest for so long in one go without shouting at them!

FaceLikeTheBackOfaBus · 13/09/2009 11:03

What makes you suspicous, shiney? Seems like a normal newbie to me...

Actually, I wanted to ask you something, Shiney. When I got back home at about 9pm in the car last night, we followed a police car (or leese dar as DD3 says repeatedly! ) all the way to the end of our cul-de-sac (we live at the end). It drove up a teeny extra bit where we can't see clearly, then came back out after about 30 seconds and drove off again. There was no need for it to go so far just to turn round. And, in one of our car parking spaces, there were two women sitting in a car - they'd been in a different place in the road when we left 20 minutes before. I had to ask them nicely to move so I could get a sleepign DD3 out, and they were very friendly, but just went and parked elsewhere and still sat there just looking/watching.

Is there anyway I can find out what the police were up to????
