JKS I hope you had a good time last night?

Waves to everyone else.

I need your wonderful advice ladies over my DD and her very new sleeping pattern. over past few days shes been going to bed at her normal time 7pm, has been getting in and out of bed, calling mummy as she supposedly misses me theres always a reason iykwim, and she should be really tired as she doesn't really have time to stop in the day, has not been getting to sleep till 1-2am, i'm tired as well as feeling ill and DP is exhausted too. I'm running out of patience and rapidly!
What is your advice ladies?

Also I need to find 3 sex discrimination cases for my final assignment of the year and I can't find one, so any help really appreciated

Hi all CWWM I imagine your blonde too!

MM afraid to say this ((whisper)) but have you checked her for threadworms, they can cause restlessness at night, hope not, but some people really do forget to check these things!

Well I did my SIL duties today and went to visit the new baby and helped SIL to latch her on, and then went and sorted all her baby clothes & the nursery for her, so I earned a star today I think!

So now I'm going to have a nosey on mn,
do schoolruns
one more month for VAT rtn to do
and all the other evening stuff
Have a wash in washing machine but we have a bit of thunder so won't risk putting it out
We had a big thunder & lightening storm last night

He's just woken up, still grumpy.

DH texted says it's flooding in Sheffield! You guys ok CWWM?
We are far enough away from the Don to be ok, but I'd rather be back on the other side after the devestation that happened the year before last.

WME It has brightened up now but still rumbles of thunder . I remember last time it flooded we had no power for 2 days and I was miserable then I just started enjoying myself after borrowing a camping stove and wind up radio and the bloody electric went back on .Luckily we didn't flood dsis had to walk home in waist deep water though took her 5 hours . Hope ds cheers up for you at some point today .

Pins gold star on PBM You sound like a lovely SIL . I am brunette all the girls are too apart from dd4 who is pure blonde .

Yeap I brought some of those buns with me too
