It's hard isn't it - mind you 9pm is late to be showing up !!

SIL got here at 5pm and hubby didn't get home until 7pm, I had to make tea around her and OH has just gone for a shower. My mistake was to give her tea - if I hadn't done that she'd be off home by now.

LOL we never learn do we

i'm logging off in a minute as i want to watch saddo programme Love Island - glad that Lee got booted off last night - he was funny at times - esp when he was doing his Sophie mickey take, but he got on my nerves and I loved Chris but he is starting to wind me up

Brendon and Sophie are well matched - can't stand either of them - I liked Brendon, but now I want to slap him
I love Kate Lawler - she should have been on there from the start

I would love to see Kellie win it along with Callum

Evening all mind if I take a pew and order a cocktail

Ive tried that and it worked for a year but after that it lost its appeal.
I have 3 boys, 8,6 and 4 and they are really hard work
Mandy

You did it for a year take it by that time boys were sleeping no prob? I have boy of 9 and girl of 3 did the chart with eldest when he was 3 also and worked like a dream after 6 weeks no more evening dramas so withdrew chart My two are now back at school and nursery so am getting a bit of peace schools in your neck of the woods be back soon then you can enjoy some peace have another you deserve it

I compleated the diploma Heath and social welfare and ive had a year of from studying so im doing a level 1 course to get me in the swing of things, hoping to get a degree in health and social care.

Its hard work studying with kids i know i wont get on BE much
Mandy

Thats good if you have the self discipline! I'm the total oppossite no discipline at all so when I should be working will probably be on BE more than ever I seem to find a million things to do rather than study. My degree is in Health psychology its my 4th and final year so have a dissertation to write :scared: :scared: good luck to you think we need another drink as studies not due for a while yet cheers
