A late Grouchy HELLO to you all
I've not had chance to read the thread yet so hugs to all and hope you're all well
I was sidetrcked yesterday by a man from the council's contractors. Seems we can have our eaves Lagged for nothing (Yay) Thing is said eves have not been opened for 12+ years and the attic/office is rammed with clutter also for 12+years. As it's the boys playroom I flatly refuse to tidy it. Their mess, DH's problem IYKWIM. But I just couldn't let a total stranger have to pick their way through the pit and I took 3 carriers of rubbish out, threw lamps away (Knacked) (Down 2 flights of stairs) and moved some stacks of boxes of sentimental clutter. DH moved the furniture about so there was access to the eave doors.
Plus I had to go to Ed's assembly. It was very good and done to the whole school (350 pupils Nursery to Year 6) They did all of 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar'. All the children said a bit and Ed did the bit when the caterpillar becomes a cocoon. He was good and clear. A teacher came up to say how well he had done and how much he had to remember. Ed was stood there so proud with his little chest and chin stuck out, and a big smile. Awh listen to me being overproud mum {blush]. You'd think no one else had kids I was just so chuffed for him.
