Hi guys

well all back from school in one piece yay. Yet more bags of assorted gubbins from classrooms to add to piles.
swan felt quite bad for secretaries actualy as I walked past the office on way through to nursery and DD announced "llok what Ive got for my teacher" holding up bunch of flowers!! Think I may have to add them to my list next year LOL

My little baby boys last day at primary school I'll never pick him up from there again....quite emotional....

DH finished early which is good and handed my my laptop and banished me to the bedroom and is now sorting tea time chaos - bless him

Sadly though have also had a call from MIL, they think FIL is in his final few days. So now trying to get my head round possible travel to Ireland and funeral arrangements for next week. Not sure which of DC to take....DS1 and DD1 know about the situation, others dont. I only told DD1 last week and she was really upset that Grandad wasnt going to get better. Will definately leave DD3 and 4 if my parents can cope with them....will have to take DS2 I think , not sure about others....will have to consider...I really want to be able to focus on supporting DH rather than worrying about DC, but not really many people we can leave them with....oh well

Going to have a shower and a cuppa I think. Pizza for me and dh later....

At least we are now officially on holiday!! See you all tomorrow

Hi
Galen sorry for awful news, thinking of you lots. Enjoy the pizza!
Are we odd around here breaking up later? We got two weeks at May Spring bank hols so that's perhaps why. Anyway DS leaves nursery next week to go full time in Sept (sob) so i don't want him to break up - I'm dreading it!
Prof magic show sounds good don't think I can help with that!

On the seeing myself in the video thing: you'll all be pleased to know that DH said it was because it was in wide screen! He switched it to normal telly view and I looked slim!! Yay! I didn't eat a chocolate to celebrate but I did think about it

Got through the day, dc just in bed, we've all eaten together tonight so no date night for us really - will try to manage it after DH has watched the cricket highlights!

See you tomorrow

Galen I am so sorry to hear the news. I hope you can get things sorted as smoothly as possible.

Tomorrow it appears I have a 6 yr old PITA (along with a 41 yr old one too)

Spot bad mood grouch I'll catch you wonderful lot this weekend

swanriver · 17/07/2009 19:44

Grouchy, my little pittas are being a bit flatbreadish too, but we'v ehad a good day really, and even got slug pellets.
Dinner for all finished, several children had to bes ent out of room in disgrace,
now eappeard for supplemental cornflakes.

Flip and refresh the display,the only answer!

Galen, I'm sure yourparents will help. Ds2 will probablycheer everyone up though.
thinking of you both.

scattyspice · 17/07/2009 20:16

galen - hope you can work something out.

Wendy - excellent result with the video! Who on earth would think of inventing a wide screen!

evening all

day has been a pile of poo mostly.

Been to docs as have been in excruciating pain for the past 3 days. Now have pills and need blood tests and an ultrasound of my tum and gall bladder etc

Nursery had to have their first ever talk with me about ds's behaviour

Just got back from having a pedicure and brow dye and shape

Just ordered a curry - totally against doctors orders

grouchy hope you feel better soon
prof good luck with your sparkly bits
wendy thank you for the thread
swan I like the idea of a slimming mirror
galen thinking of you and your family.
mad grr at delivery drivers, what gits

littleboyblue · 18/07/2009 00:39

grouchy glad the doc could give you something.
swan They slept until about half 2, and the best bit was, I managed a little nap too , and no, it didn't really matter about the timings.
I didn't take anything to swap shop, they have enough crap to get rid of!
galen

Ladies night was nice, at home now with more wine. Dp is getting up with boys in morning, so gonna curl up on sofa with wine and book and really chill as can have long lay in........although I'm sure dp will think of a stupid question to wake me with, so have written instructions on feeding etc Men hey?
