Morning! All ready for school, had chocolate chip brioche rolls, watching Angry Birds. 📔🎒🍫😬🐦

Morning, EDBD! Love chocolate chip brioche!!! 😍🤤

We're back to school today too, just giving the two youngest their milk. Got to do DD1's school run today, so need to leave in about 20 mins 😩

Hope everyone has a good day!

Morning

School here too! Absolutely throwing it down. Joy! Good luck to mini-Malcolms, mini-EDBD's and mini-Sassy for their first day back....7 wks to go before the summer hols

7 weeks?!!!!!!!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😨

Very overcast here and windy. Wondering whether I should risk it and hang some washing out...!

Thanks, Sassy - hope your DD has a good day back too!

Right, have done DD1 school run, now if best go and do DD2!

Just back from an incredibly soggy school run...happy Monday

yes....7 weeks....

Hope everyone has a good day. Domestics & maybe seeing a couple of friends before school and then drama runs later this end. Back to reality!

Had a big breakfast sandwich today. 😆🍞

Yummy! Not eaten yet today though have had 4 cups of tea Just back from coffee (tea) with friends. Had baby cuddles and baby giggles...best sound ever

Yay, DDs fidget spinner arrived. She's going to be thrilled at school pick-up

Picked the DC up, had lobster macaroni cheese for supper, both DC are in bed, well actually DD's lying across my feet playing Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin on DS2's tablet, did wash, in bed now. 💻😴

Loving your comment EDBD! Will post an update shortly...

Hope you all sleep well tonight 😊

Aaaarrrrrggghhhh Sassy, think the weather you had yesterday has made its way here today! ☔️💦💨 NOT looking forward to going out in that!

Glad your DD's fidget spinner arrived, that took ages! Is the noise driving you insane yet?!!!

I'm so flipping tired this morning, even though I went to bed early last night. I just keep having random dreams and when I wake up it feels like I haven't slept at all. 😩 I know its probably because I'm so crazy busy all day, it's my brain's way of processing stuff but I'm not sure what I can do about that.

Oh well, best go and get ready to take DD1 to school - not that I want to go out there!

Have a good day all x

Just started reading your thread...😂🐦🦅

Keep reading Malcolm....there are new updates and pics!!!

Morning both

Yep weather still v bad here too. Soooo windy! With you on the tired front Malcolm. Shattered also. Fidget spinner not making any noise at mo...DD on the other hand

Good luck on the school run! Catch up with you both later!

Sassy, I can't believe Gary is still there!!! 😂

Is it wrong that I'm really hoping he's still there when you get back?! Or is he actually in your house now?

Go take a look at latest pics on thread ...he's in my garden on my bench so he has more of a 'view'...yep...I'm certifiable

DS2's in bed, so am I, DD's lying across my feet playing on the tablet.

I love the Gary/Garyetta saga! Wish I could help in the relay, but I'm in entirely the wrong direction and am not heading to London, so I'm a bit useless really! It has made me chuckle though, it's the kind of thing I end up doing, like spotting sheep on the road that have got through a fence and trying to lead them back to their field (I remember the Lamb situation you had, Sassy! 💩) and my best friend is even crazier in that respect than I am! So I entirely sympathise and I really hope the owner is going to let you know once it's home safely!

Right, I'm absolutely exhausted, so I'm off to bed. Night, all!

Morning!

Loving the DGazzie updates, Sassy!

Hope you both had a good night. I actually slept well!!! Woke up feeling quite refreshed, it says quite a lot that I don't remember the last time that happened.

Plus I've got a nice easy day today, so I'm hoping to completely recharge the old batteries.

Hoping all is well at DGazzieTowers!

Hope all well with you too, EDBD.

Have a lovely day both of you!

Morning! Yes, all's fine here, thanks Malcolm! I had a cheese and 🍄 omelette today. 😆

Afternoon both! Stupidly crazily busy work day....sigh...don't finish until late, didn't get a proper lunch break, got meeting to go to tonight....waaaahhhh!

Anyway DGazzie was all good this morning Been chatting to her owner throughout the day on WhatsApp so her journey home is all sorted for Saturday...nice to have a few more days with her...am somewhat attached!

Good to hear you slept well last night Malcolm. Am hoping that I crash later as def need to catch up on sleep. Feel like headless chicken at mo. Ran PTA mtg last night. Back in school to deliver presentation tonight. Plus full on at work. Not enough hours in the day!

Anyway...best get back to it...catch up later x

Didn't get in properly until gone 9pm...now drinking ...wake me up in the morning someone!

Hope you're both ok and have had a better day than me today!

Gosh, Sassy - sorry your day was so manic!

Mine was more relaxed than yours, by the sound of things, and that was with DD1 & 2 bickering all day and the two littlest screeching like banshees for most of it!!! Hope you manage to get some sleep.

Glad all well with DGazzie!

Typically, after my good night's sleep last night, now I don't feel the slightest bit tired!!!

Night night!

Night Malcolm. Night EDBD. Hope we all sleep well xx

Hi both! Well if anything today was worse...soooo busy right now and struggling to keep on top of everything. Am going to head to bed shortly and hope sleep will help me cope better tomorrow. Hope you're both ok...am sure we'll be commenting on the election tomorrow. Not sure how it will play out - interesting times!

Night both x
