Despicable Me 3 is a bit rubbish Sad which is a shame. Bee food - spring food: 1pt water to 1lb sugar, heated to dissolve sugar.

I think we've done all the clocks now. Apart from one - just remembered another one. Bother. DH can do that one....

Am currently being a cat bed again, but I need to get DS up to bed. And he's in a grouch because he dug up a big potato and DH cooked it before taking a photo Hmm The world is ended, it's all a disaster, etc etc... Sad

Ah but is it alllll your fault Helen? Would be in this house. Or about 70/30.

Bee food sounds rather nice.

I’ve just sorted through a massive stack of paperwork. Oh the excitement how will I cope. I now have a smaller stack that requires phone calls/emails/whatever.

Just waiting for DS1 so we can watch something. Probably McMafia or an episode of El Dorado as we’re that far behind with stuff.

It is not allllll my fault because I did not cook the potato (adds to list of sentences that I never imagined I'd be writing) - that would be DH. But DS is now in a general misery and in need of much cuddling and reassurance Sad and not helped by the change in clocks either because it's an hour earlier than he thinks he should be in bed, body-clock-wise.

I have had a hot bath, my back doesn't feel toooooo bad. Not looking forward to tomorrow morning when it's had a night of not moving.

I don't care if the clocks went forward, I'm going to bed anyway. The HBFs in the hayloft can apply various poultices and ointments etc. I'm sure there's lots of techniques that can be tried out on my back. Grin

Poor MiniHelen, feeling a bit discombobulated (love that word)

We watched about an hour of Wonder Woman instead.

DH is now watching War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise in it. I am alternating between “take him first!” and treating him to my singing of “the chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one he said” Grin

Have decided though I can’t take watching any more of it, so I’m off to the hayloft. Paella and Brandon are going to serenade me, amongst many other things.

FancyFancy · 25/03/2018 23:53

Joins in with letus's singing> I luffs teh Jeff Wayne soundtarck Grin

Ooh apricot, you've reminded me that the clock in my car will now be right!

Hope the back is ok in the morning helen

LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 07:37

Morning wenches.

Have had about two hours’ sleep. DS2 was awake most of the night coughing and feeling hot and having a headache and being a bit dramatic and whiny so he’s not at school today. Fab. Going to see if mum can have him. If not, I’ll have to take a day’s leave and I’ve tons of stuff on my desk. At least he’s cooler and had a bit of proper sleep.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuulllllllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shock My back isn't too bad this morning, so that is good news (and probably means I'll do something stupid and over-do it later today)

Oh LetUs Sad
Brew
[matchsticks]
more Brew
[HBFs to help ease you through the day]

In other news, I let DS sleep in, and now I am evil mother from hell and have ruined his life etc etc (or so you'd think from his attitude) because he hasn't got as much time before school for playing and TV as he usually does. FFS. Ungrateful sod. I'd kill for a lie-in.

OP posts:
LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 08:34

No Nathaniel noooooo!!!

Be careful with your back Helen

Yeah DS1 is still a bit like that. Complains about getting up, complains if he doesn’t get as much time on his phone before school.

Mum can have DS2 so that’s good.

FancyFancy · 26/03/2018 09:15

Morning

Glad to hear you have DS 2 sorted letus & that helen's back is not too bad. Off out for the day, so neeed to get ready, laters......

Evening. Isn't it lovely and light outside Grin DH has massacred mowed the lawn, and is cooking tea now. And I remembered to buy a birthday pressie for a party next week, so that is a GoodThing.

Now DS wants me to look up a walk-through on one of his xbox games.

ApricotCrush · 26/03/2018 19:03

Evening. It is lovely and light. I'm not hungry and feel a bit sick which is strange. Hope I'm not coming down with something. DGS had a bug last week but it can't be that. I think I'll just cook for DH. Confused

Hope Fancy had a good day out and LetUsDS2 is feeling better.

LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 19:05

Evening wenches. I must say, as Mondays go this has been very Monday. Some people at my work are such lazy twats. So I treated myself to a few bits of Harry Potter stuff from Primark at lunchtime.

Hope you’ve had a lovely day Fancy.

DS2 not had a bad day but is now looking very tired and feeling a bit headache-y.

I feel your pain re the walkthrough request Helen.

And there are two chances of me going to exerciseclass tonight.

LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 19:06

Apricot. Really hope you’re not coming down with anything

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 26/03/2018 19:30

Sad Apricot Tell MrA to cook his own tea (yes, I know, but...) and have a nice hot bath and early night (with HBFs to look after you)

What two chances are they LetUs? 'Likely' and 'definite'?

OP posts:
mrsreynolds · 26/03/2018 19:44

Apes...take care x

Ds2 has a head cold and his head bump is still sore and he's got to wash his hair in a bit. That'll be fun 😣

I'm knackered. Proper want to just stay in bed knackered.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 26/03/2018 19:45

btw - the game DS was playing was the Lgo Force Awakens one. With Kylo Ren. I sniggered and thought of LetUs & Wicked Grin

OP posts:
mrsreynolds · 26/03/2018 20:06

...and now he has stomach ache.
Sigh.

LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 20:09

Those aren’t quite the two chances Helen Grin

Oh poor MiniMiniBadderz and for you Badderz

I wouldn’t mind playing with Kylo Ren

I have had a tickling fight with DS, and now I'm heading for the hayloft, night all.

Evening
Have had a most pleasant day thank you - it has been quite spring-like. I'm now catching up with Britannia & drinking Wine. Which wench described that programme as a bit batshit? Grin

Hope all illing wenches & miniWenches pass a peaceful night.

LetUsPrey · 26/03/2018 22:42

Hurrah for pleasant day and Wine!

DS2 has been asleep since about 9 but there are sounds of coughing and stirring so I’m off to the hayloft to get my head down before he inevitably wakes up just as I’m dozing off.

Night wenches

LetUsPrey · 27/03/2018 07:57

Morning wenches.

DS2 staying off for another day, although he had a much better night. DH has said he can take the day off —miracle of miracles—. Think he’ll be back to school tomorrow though.

Hope MiniMiniBadderz is feeling better.

The other night’s not sleeping has caught up to me. I feel like a zombie. I already have the complexion for it.

mrsreynolds · 27/03/2018 08:04

Ds2 was in with me last night letus so I empathise.
He seems ok this morning
Both dc off to pils then I'm having a mini meet with minty 😁❤
Apple crumble time 👍
