Lol SOL! Dp was very excited confused when he first saw all the 'dp's on mumsnet, had to explain it was not what he thought!!
GMM - glad you had such a lovely day, sounds like your dh is making up for some of his previous crapness now?! Very ---- pleased for you!
Dippy - sorry your dp was so crap and you were so this morning - do you want to talk/rant/moan/bitch/share at all? We're all here for you if you do
Sol - your day sounds lovely too
Oooggs - sorry your day was not so good, hope dh makes it up to you big time next weekend.
Mammyjo - Glad F is picking up now.
I did get my breakfast in bed this morning (after buying everything I wanted myself yesterday!) although it was at half 8 which was a little bit earlier than I would have liked! But have done more stuff today than I normally would on a Sunday - dishwasher, washing, blitzed kitchen, made choc brazils with kids and finished off my not quite ruined truffles, tidied lounge... But did get an afternoon nap while D slept (he slept for 3 hours!!) and had domino's for tea as we had a 50% off voucher [fat cow]
D's eyes are still really bad, both eyes very red and puffy and constant stream of gunk Will take him drs tomorrow. Seems fine in himself though although I think the 3 hour nap was down to him being poorly as its never happened before.
The fire yesterday was the shed belonging to people opposite. I heard lots of banging and at first thought it was kids letting off bangers but turned out to be various things exploding in her shed huge flames and clouds of smoke billowing out. And the woman after several minutes of it burning fiercely and neighbours calling firebrigade, came out her house to have a look then went back in with her kids and stayed in the house! Police came and ushered her and her 4 kids out onto the street. The shed is only about 6 foot from her house and bits were exploding so could easily have caught house on fire, coldnt believe she just went back in with all her kids Anyway all that distracted me from truffles and they ended up splitting and all the fat came out They still taste delish though just very rich and dense so 1 is all you need. Add to that the fact that it was all the fat that seperated out then it prob a good thing, great diet chocs!!
DC made gorgeous boxes yesterday to put chocs in, I bought a couple scrapbooking kits from the works for £4 that had perfect size card for boxes and loads of bits for decorating, even Nathan managed to make beautiful looking boxes! And my fudge did work very well so was generally a success and a lot of fun for us all and both grandmas very pleased
Although I'm still not sure why it was me doing all the work I think dp managed to write in the card for his mum that I chose DD had made me a beautiful card at school but Nathan hadnt, little bit and that the school didnt do anything with them for Mother's day but ne'ermind eh!
Think I should shut up now, can you tell I'm all alone and bored with noone to talk to
