Afternoon all

I am feeling low! - In fact I am feeling that someone is going to get my full wrath if they upset me so i'm trying to avoid everyone

DD fell off bike yesterday and grazed finger - must have took nearly an hour to calm her down and now she is refusing to use the hand with the grazed thumb and trying to get me to do everything and in the process testing my patience. I have been to the gym and DD to dance but only just after DH did his usual morning go slow and be as unhelpful as is possible.

I have no idea what jobs need doing other than more washing and to put away yesterdays washing. May try and take DD out for some fresh air and see if it lifts my mood.

DH has gone to play cricket - I may make Sunday my day. I think i'm craving time on my own

Afternoon all

ruby good luck with party! Is it your dd's bday today? Oh, and yes I took some photos of DD's eye/face

Ok...list update:

Whats for dinner...who knows...oven dead so am limited!??????

feeling glad I've done the dining room shelevs!Sorted through LOADS of paperwork too(including pile of microwave hotspot!)and done some calendar updating

Also been playing with ds2 and his night garden drawing set(he got it in April for his bday...but then I lost it but found amidst chaos of dining room shelevs yay!

evening all

Shopping done. fairly successful. Had a nice time with dd1,went for a smoothie and a chat...nice girlie time
Got all dd2's bday pressies, and last bits for dd3 bday in July...feeling very organised

Slightly not so good incident just occurred though....DH was infront garden cutting grass. I was in back garden with the girls, then a neighbour from the bottom of the road appeared with DS2 Seems he had followed DS1 when he went to walk the dog and had gone half way up footpath at the end of our road on his own carrying the mop bucket and a pencil case He's such a tearaway, fearless child LOL Is it bad that I find it quite funny to picture him off up the hill with a mop bucket and pencil case... Must add we live in a VERY quite small cul-de-sac....anyway....
DH thought he was in the back with me, I thought he was still playing in the front with DH....but no he was making his own bid for freedom LOL OK...feeling quite bad mummy really
Anyway, was just recovering from shock of that when the dog appears..without DS1(who was walking her around the hill)...Turns out she had just run off from DS1 and ran home....so ds1 runs frantically down hill calling for dog, to be told by kind neighbour (same one who just returned ds2) that he had seen her run home ....so now neighbour (and rest of street)no doubt thinks we are totally bonkers family with children and dogs running wild all over the neighbourhood
Dont know why dog ran off like that...I wonder if she heard/smelled/sensed DS2 following them...

Anyway...all back safe and sound!

Lovely sunny evening here...so bit more garden play, then baths and bed
