I love them really - I was just so hungry (can't eat before my

slimming class!!!!) and Mum was so p*ss*d off with DH not here so she

could go home.

As I was having curry for tea I could not eat it with her sat

watching me complaining about " urgh curry " and pulling her face!

Poor you - but I suppose on the bright side, you could read your

emails in peace.

Hope tomorrows better (can hardly be worse!)

You sound like I felt last week, Read you mails and have a good night

sleep and start afresh in the morning! Remember that eventually they

grow up and become reasonable-ish (at times)! it is 10.30pm and my DS

has only just made it to bed!!

LOL!!!

Sounds like a pretty typical night with my kids when they were

smaller, especially when I had my foster son, same age as Azariah, the

two boys were right little menaces together ) That made nine of the

little b**gers!

LOL Trisha

Sounds like a average night to me (apart from the fact I don't do slimming and

only have 2 kids and no mum/mil around to baby-sit LOL) but yes I think I am

going to recommend to my friend who asked me about starting a family the other

day (via email) that a goldfish might be better ;o) (they have just moved into

their first home and have carpeted the lounge in a soft white/cream carpet and

now they are talking about babies LOL)

Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama

& expecting a Christmas delivery...

My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you

start.

So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake.

I feel better already.

I would definately recommend wooden floors - blood, sick, milk all

just wipe up with no problems.

DH was home tonight at 6.45pm bringing DS3 with him from nursery.

Even DS1 & 2 have not bickered quite as much tonight. DS2 was in bed

at 6.08pm and did not seem to realise that it was 1 hour earlier than

usual. DS3 went off to sleep fairly quickly, and DS1 is quiet - I

assume asleep but probably reading!

Monday is always a hard night in our house - too many things going on

but if DH had told me before 5pm that he would not be coming home

then life could have been a lot easier - I could have arrange a lift

back from Beavers and mum a lift home!

DH finally arrived home at 11pm.

Mappleton, just south of hornsea. sounds quite similar - car park, loos,

walk down to beach. P.O. in village for ice creams and extra food. Might

try yours next time.
