Oh dear day from hell I need some of that mudcake .

First of all I could hear voices on my back garden I looked out of the window to find dd and three of her friends practically on the garden ! I had just got out of the shower so couldn't go straight after her I tried to shout her and she ran back onto the school (which is opposite the back of my house) 10 mins later she was back again and then I heard the dinnerlady shot her back . She is five BTW .
My dsis turned up and I went into school and spoke to head she was very nice and shocked they had been so far away from school premises (they are meant to stay in the fenced area God knows why it wasn't locked).
She is sorting it out anyway but I still feel shook up about it .
Then dsis took me to get a coffee and when we got back it was time for pick up at school . Very quiet in yard then I find out I was supposed to be at an award assembly where dd and ds were getting certificates .
DP was told about it this morning and asked to pass message on to me and forgot .
Oh and to top it all off I have got home and the dog has tore my library book up .

.

The dinnerady shout her back .

Comwwhinewithme - sorry about your pants day...

Total at a 5yr old so far away from the school though without them realising!!
