Tired. Hayloft was very noisy last night.
(And DS came into bed at about 1am, and I know it's a rod for my own back, I should just turf him back to his own bed but he still very snuggly and will eventually stop wanting to cuddle up.)

Crawls out the door....

Morning wenches.

Sorry about the noise Helen. Aidan told me to open my present and it went from there.

And yes, you’re right about the night time cuddles.

Is it home time yet?

mrsreynolds · 13/03/2018 10:24

I have a 9 year old that still does that helen

mrsreynolds · 13/03/2018 16:07

Well what a fucker of a day and it's not over yet!
Ds2s parents evening later ! That'll be a waste of time fun!
Then dropping ds1 off for his school trip (that I forgot about)
At least the bloody ikea delivery has arrived at last!

Hello wenches. Lovely day here, very Springy.

I went to the hospital for a heart scan this afternoon. It was carried out by a young guy nothing special. Embarrassing. Blush

Evening wenches.

Hope he got planning permission for that Badderz. Good luck with parents evening/hope it went well.

When do you get the results Apricot, or do they give you them quickly? Either way, hope all is well.

Look at the doggy!! So cute!

Am behind with Shetland. What a surprise.

ApricotCrush · 13/03/2018 19:39

Thanks LetUs. They'll send it to the consultant who will write to me. They say if there is anything bad they wouldn't let you go home. Grin

That's an amazing fort Bads.

mrsreynolds · 13/03/2018 19:45

I found having the echo quite sore apes...did you?

Ds1 is at his school play

Dh is doing god knows what

Ds2 is in his fort

LetUsPrey · 13/03/2018 20:05

I suppose there is that Apricot Grin

“DS2 is in his fort” - awesome Grin

DS2 has done his spellings and his maths. With no fuss.

Heard DH doing lots of noisy walking about upstairs in our room. It sounded like he was changing the bedding. This made me happy. I went upstairs to check. Bedding not changed. He’d been tidying. This made me sad. (I could do it myself but I can’t be arsed now).

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 13/03/2018 20:46

I read that as "I was carried out by a young guy" Apes Grin I hope it went well ❤

LetUsPrey · 13/03/2018 21:39

Grin Wicked

I’m watching Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby. They’re at a very fancy health and wellness hotel in Switzerland. They’ve just shown the chef preparing a three course meal - it was a total of 600 calories! How is that possible? And now they’re harvesting grapes in a vineyard to make Swiss wine. I didn’t know the Swiss made wine. They don’t export it, it just goes to quite exclusive Swiss restaurants.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 13/03/2018 22:55

Evening. I have been out with friends Shock on a school night and all. Lots of gossip/catch-up/giggling

I am not on MN, btw. I am checking what I spent on a spa day last year. That's all.

That's a massive fort Badders - Minibadders in an architect in the making Grin Hope parents evening went well.

Glad to hear that apricot was allowed home from hospital.- nice link - his socks don't match though Grin

LetUs - we shall invent self-chaning bedding and make our fortune Grin

Right - bed. BoringOfficeJob tomorrow...

LetUsPrey · 13/03/2018 23:09

Out?! On a school night?! You rebel Helen Grin

You won’t read this though for a while as you’re not on MN at the moment of course.

I’m just watching all the pretty people on Hawaii Five-0 and am then heading to the hayloft where the Batch and Dustin and I shall recreate a luxury, private island beach scenario.

mrsreynolds · 14/03/2018 07:51

I think he'd be a great architect Helen...
He's a whizz on minecraft too :)

Going to run some errands for a sick friend today

And washing of course....always washing :)

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 14/03/2018 07:53

That's me - Rebel without a.... um. Enough sleep?

Just seen Fantastic Beasts trailer with DS - one small excited child... Grin

Off to work, laters all, have a lovely sun-filled day of happiness and HBFs

Oops - sorry - forgot where I was...

LetUsPrey · 14/03/2018 08:17

Morning wenches.

Please write a list of your errands and tick them off as you go Badderz. Do it for me —you probably were doing that anyway—

That trailer does look amazing Helen! Keep seeing the trailer on TV for the Avengers Infinity War film. Hope the air conditioning’s working in the cinema when I watch it.

[Dons glasses, licks pencil, gets clipboard out]

Ok. Here you go letus...

Put a wash on and put drier on

Breakfasts

Shower

Ds1 needed a hair wash this morning. He decided to do this at 8.20. We leave the house at 8.25...😡

Ds2 then told me he needs cardboard today for d&t lesson.
side eyes huge structure in conservatory 😣

So I go to the shed and start hacking huge bits of cardboard with a Stanley knife. Just about manage to get 2 huge bits in car.

I drag the old mattress to the top of the drive to be collected by the council....this did not go well. I hurt my thumb:(

School run...usual driving fuckwittery on the roads...

Waited an hour at the dr for appt. (How can they be so late at 8.45??)
Then went to chemists
Then went to co op for friend
Took groceries round to friend and had a quick chat

Now I'm home

Wash on

Um..think that's it.

Not going to mums today. Too tired
They wanted me to cover at work today but I said no so now I've got the guilts 😩

Might watch endeavour...

What are you all up to?

mrsreynolds · 14/03/2018 11:55

I promise I used paragraphs in that post!

Ffs

ApricotCrush · 14/03/2018 14:58

Afternoon.

Grin WW.

That sounds exhausting Bads. Yes, the echo was a bit painful, particularly over the rib I broke some years ago. I didn't realise it still hurt.

Today I have been to the GPs to get repeat prescriptions. My car failed to start again so I had to go in DH's which I hate driving, well, not so much driving but parking. I now have a shiny new battery on my car so I hope that's the end of the problem until DH leaves the boot open again.

I have also started a mammouth task of scanning decades of photos. DS wants to have an evening of looking at all our holiday photos on the TV so his GF can see what he was like as a child/moody teenager. This has been planned for THIS FRIDAY FFS! Shock

mrsreynolds · 14/03/2018 16:09

School run done thank fuck.
Bit of drama. Young lad collapsed at top of the hill. Got him a blanket from the car. Ambulance came. He was conscious and talking so hopefully he's ok.
Kids friends are all dropping like flies from a sick bug so 🤞 we avoid it.
I'm watching Shetland
Ive properly had enough today. Feeling very 😔
Seeing a friend tomorrow so hoping that stops me feeling so pathetic.

LetUsPrey · 14/03/2018 18:49

Evening wenches.

Shock at collapsing child

Fingers crossed new battery does the trick Apricot. Good luck with the photos.

Have had some very full on days at work recently. Lots of prep for upcoming events.

I’ve two episodes of Shetland to watch. I’m thinking I’ll watch one tomorrow when DH is out.

mrsreynolds · 14/03/2018 19:01

It was a lad about 19 is say letus

Hope he's ok

I've watched Shetland...I shall say nothing other than Sandy is a twat (and his accent!! Wtf?? Is it real?)
