So - with eldest returning from Uni and jealousies high - they have a scuffle. Youngest now needs surgery on his right hand and is off work for the foreseeable. Fab. He doesn't get sick pay but has a new phone contract and loads of clothes he owes for.
And still no sun! Presume we are postponing till half term |

Been clothes shopping for LittlePlum today so she is happy and I am poor! She had so few clothes for out of school that we are gradually trying to build up her wardrobe - she's loving it and turning into a little fashionista until she gets home puts on her new outfits and goes out and plays on the go-kart with the dog pulling it and comes in like a little grub! Bless her - I do prefer her in little grub mode
I've been saintly and done all my ironing of uniforms for the week, just time for a quick cuppa and a bit of a read and then it's on to making tonight and tomorrow night's dinners. Mainly this afternoon I am being boredyboredboredbored of Boredsville. I rarely feel bored but this afternoon the boredom bug has hit me hard! I've got no-one to talk to - wahhhhhhhhhhh no-one to play with - wahhhhhhhhhh nothing good to do - wahhhhhhhhhhhh ![]() Other than that, all is peachy ![]() |

Kids!
It's funny, when they're little and having a major strop you can't wait for them to grow up... and then they do!

I have a theory. All you insomniacs are wanting to live in my time zone and keep me company
Then I won't be all on my lonesome *sighs pathetically*

Haha.
![]() Yes, going to bed with the Kindle was just what the doctor ordered. I clocked in 6 solid hours. ![]() Hope you guys ended up having a decent night too. ![]() I've got a slightly odd day ahead from me because I did loads yesterday and then stuff I was expecting hasn't arrived so I'm at a loose end. An unplanned free day. Cinema? Shopping? Cleaning the kitchen flooor... ? |

More like two hours here. Compounded by the dog coming upstairs and licking my nose shortly after 5am when I had taken until at least 3.30am to crash out
Bloody animal - never normally does that, still trying to work out how he opened the bloody doors!!! ![]() Tonight, after a very busy day which felt oddly like Saturday, I will mostly be imbibing at a birthday party (it's my turn ). That's if we ever get there *gazes pointedly in direction of teenager*
