Stressy Saturday!

I don't know what has caused it but today I have mostly been far too tired or very awake and feeling shouty. This is not the way forward! I have been VERY cross several times today and now at bedtime I am feeling a little better - but only because the kids are going to bed!
I want a large glass of wine.

But I don't have any.

Bother.

So in approx 20 mins when the last child is in it's bed I shall be doing the tidying that I procrastinated about earlier. And I shall be washing the cushion covers that Daisy and Toby have totally covered in Paint while I was half asleep earlier. Once again. Bother!

IN other news I feel that 16 hours a week at work is too much!

Wedding!

This is the cake I made for my Little Bro's Best Friends wedding.





60 sponges and a Fruit cake on top.

Sad for K and L

My lovely friend K is currently asleep on my sofa. She has had a very trying couple of days - but not nearly as trying as her boyfriend's.

After a night out in Southampton they and another friend were set upon as the walked back to their car by a group of lads. Poor L has lost 3 teeth and is residing in SGH at the moment awaiting the time they put his jaw back together. The police are involved and I really hope they catch these people.

K is on my sofa as she and her bloke live in Overton but he is in Southampton Hospital. They told her at 10.30 last night she couldn't stay with him and she had to leave. I had said if she needed a sofa to call me. And I am pleased she did. Even if my sprogs woke her up at 7.30am!!

Hoping that L gets fixed fast. His picture is a mess. Cuts and scrapes and all sorts. Not COOL.

Busy afternoon again!

Today is being busy again - we have so far been to ballet, to Sainsburys, to a picnic for Deaf children, and are shortly off to my friend Jen's for her birthday.

The kids have enjoyed every minute! I however am slightly worn out!!

The picnic was with the South Hampshire Deaf Childrens Society. They provided drinks and cake and entertainment and party bags for both deaf and hearing children and we had a pleasant time playing on the field and making new friends. I met a nice lady called Lexi who is the friend of my favourite Maternal cousin! She had offered through my mum to advise me on how to fill in the DLA form - but I have done it and achieved my goal so that is VERY good news!

My friend Jen will be 3? and for this event I am taking her a guft of ice-cream. Margarita - Lime, Tequila and Cointreu all combined with a whole bunch of double cream - amazing!!
