luda I think I spotted somewhere on the thread that you've got a sore arm. I'm lucky that mine doesn't hurt after a blood test but the plaster irritates my skin terribly so I take it off as soon as I can. I hope yours stops hurting soon.

Well done Jelley and Ruby.

Right. I've had my lunch break. Now back to it!

ludaloo · 22/03/2007 14:12

Thanks ivor It is ok now...it was sore just after though...the plaster is still on actually..OUCH...not now!

Well I have made a lemon drizzle cake (again!)
Made playdough for the kids (although I am sure DD2 is eating it while I'm not looking )It is keeping Ds VERY quiet!!

I spotted a thread a while ago asking for playdough recipe and it inspired me

shouldbedoingthehousework · 22/03/2007 14:33

Well, the day is turning bad for me now. Failed to do anything else constructive and have thrown a row with dh in for good measure too our first arguemant since we've been trying to get over a v low patch Feeling very fed up now and have no energy so have to sit here in my filthy house feeling awful

Luda do you have that play dough recipe? We haven't had any for ages cos I lost the recipe...

Bugger Have no cream of tartar or enough salt...waited till I'd told the kids we'd be making playdough before finding this out so I now have two bad tempered, disappointed children. Am a bad mother
Will bribe them with chocolate to cheer up

I need to start an "Am I Being Unreasonable" thread

I have just told the kids off who live across the road..and the little one cried
I am truly getting sick of it though, and will be over to tell their mother next time.

In the last 3 days between the two of them...they have:

~Dug 2 holes in my lawn (I caught them)
~With an old paint roller on a stick..rollered muddy water up my patio doors (they scarpered but ds said it was the little boy)
~Rollered the side of my car (my next door neighbour knocked on my window to tell me he was doing it...so I bolted out and shouted)
~emptied a bucket of cement mixture (from my other neighbours garden)outside my gate!

Now I have just gone out to find the girl picking the top off my wall!!!!

I have been sooooo patient but enough is enough!!!!!!!
