Hi Deuce, welcome aboard, Hops- well done! Now go off and enjoy yourself. Shabs- so glad to hear news about Lew, you must all be so relieved!
Trips- sorry you are feeling so fed up. Morning Ooogs and Ruby.
I am hiding in my bedroom, fed up with the fighting, screaming and general bad feeling in this house this morning, seriously wondering why I am continuing to live here, when everyone seems to hate each other so much.Sad Why am I bothering about putting ourselves into more debt over birthdays and Christmas for my two ungrateful wretchs when all they can do is fight and hurt each other and shout and scream at their parents when we ask them to stop, and DH is just making things worse by losing his temper as well SadSad

Hi trips - yep, I agree! Finally walked out this afternoon and drove over to my friend who moved 20 miles away in the summer, only came back half an hour ago (now just after midnight) after a couple of frantic phonecalls from DH wondering where i was and if i was ok. I really miss having her just across the road, but maybe it made more of a point to DH and kids that I was willing to drive so far in the fog just to get away from them!Hmm

Morning girls xx

Hopstheduck · 20/11/2011 09:37

Aww bubby, hope things have picked ups a bit now. I'd have thrown them out in the garden and locked them out!

We went to London for the ideal home show at Xmas (won tickets) then took the kids to Harrods, went to the market on southbank, M&M world then a lovely Indian restaurat with tesco vouchers Grin nice cheap day out.

Today will be ironing, and cooking

triplets · 21/11/2011 00:06

Night all xx

Morning girls.

Tried to go to bed about half 9 last night. Couldn't stop coughing so came back down. Have just woke up, fully dressed and stuck to the leather settee....OMG not felt this poorly for a long time. Have slept sat up and its the only thing that stopped the cough!!!

Hopstheduck · 21/11/2011 07:17

Morning girls

Oh Shabs, you poor thing! Mix some turmeric, ginger and honey with a little hot water. Turmeric is a natural antiseptic and works wonders on coughs.

Trips, mainly on money saving expert, but I enter anything I see, so lots on twitter and Facebook too. I started it more seriously jan this year, and have won over £12k of prizes now. Still hoping for one of the big ITV ones one day!

Childcare is all sorted now, shall I go post on AIBU to take the kids out of school for 4 days so me and hubby can go to the Super Bowl? WinkGrin

Feb, so the kids have to miss 4 days of school unfortunately. The older two are going up to Norfolk to stay with my parents (so will be a nice holiday for them), and the younger staying with DH's family, who are 25 miles away.

Not sure how I'm going to tell the school, but it isn't exam time or anything for any of them.

triplets · 21/11/2011 10:32

Morning all.............Shabs you have my sympathy, just got rid of my cough after 4 weeks! I found nothing helped.
Just going to phone school to make an appt with the head, need to get some things sorted out!
Right.......................here goes!

Hi all. Shabs, sorry you are feeling so poorly, keep up the fluid intake.
Hops, they will prob complain, if it's anything like our school, but go for it, it's the chance of a lifetime.
Trips, hope the visit to the school went well, and you got the result you wanted.
Family were really nice to me yesterday, I think it shocked them a bit, me just walking out. DH did washing, folding and put away clothes, and cooked lunch, boys had hoovered and tidied living room and got homework done.ShockThey all kept making me cups of tea and asking if I was ok. Didn't last long, seem to be getting back to normal arguing now, but it was nice while it lasted!Hmm

bubby64 · 21/11/2011 23:20

Ruby- forgot to say thanks for the sympathy. Why do they do that? Mine are supposed to hang up coats, put shoes in shoe hanger and put backpacks in hall cupboard, but I walked in from work this evening and coats, shoes and bags just dumped in hall, I had difficulty in opening front door as there was so much stuff dumped there, with dog leaping about in excitement among it all!!!

shabbapinkfrog · 22/11/2011 04:41

Well had a great sleep - fell asleep around half 1 and just got up.....

Morning girls!!!

Hopstheduck · 22/11/2011 07:11

Morning girls,

Mine do that too, dump everything - I give them a warning then either chuck it out to the lawn or in the wheelie bin depending on my mood! Maybe you should walk out more often, sounds good!

Any better today, Shabs?

shabbapinkfrog · 22/11/2011 08:36

A bit love. Just only got 3 hours sleep and then, came downstairs because I was waking the entire street up coughing!!! Think I have definitly peaked too soon today....Lew will be here about 11.30 for an hour till his Mum finishes work...maybe get another sleep when he has gone x
