Had to post one last time as I forgot to blog about the way I was woken up this morning –
Davies : (while bouncing on the bed) Mummy, Mummy wake up it’s snowed in the night
Me: urgh, yawn, eye drops urgh some more
Davies: come on Mummy, we need to go downstairs and put the Christmas tree back up!
He was persuaded to go downstairs alone and watch Tales from the Riverbank on video for half an hour while I went back to bed 🙂
It has snowed on and off all day although it has not settled down here – I can see it settled on top of the downs though. Didn’t go out with my Mum in the end – she is far too nesh to be out and about in this weather and tbh even I was less than inclined to go out too so we have postponed for now.
Tomorrow Julie and the twins are coming over – Davies and I were talking about it while he was in bed tonight and he has promised (totally unprompted, bless him, he really shouldn’t have to be dealing with my issues at such a tender age!) to get the others not to make too much mess and to tell me and Julie if they are instead of joining in. Not at all sure he will manage to carry that off but it’s a nice sentiment!
Currently getting nagged lots about how much time I spend online in the evenings – so may try experimenting by not going online tomorrow and doing that talking thing other couple seem to do 🙂 Will let you know whether this makes any difference or if he just likes to have something to nag about and taking the ‘you are always on that bloody laptop’ rant away from him will prompt him to look for additional things to winge about!
oh bugger, you mean a laptop *isn’t* going to solve all my problems?!!

well I’ve seen you on line this morning all ready 😉 Or did you mean off-line just for the evening? I get nagged too. What is it they don’t get? LOL. Chris has taken to trying the guilt tactic – like doing the washing up while I’m on here. Like *that’s* going to work, der!

Ady does stuff like that too – just frees me up to stay on the computer thank you very much 😉
No the plan is to be offline during the evening – or at least until he’s gone to bed! I can sort of see his point, and it’s not like I don’t get plenty of time to do stuff online during the day (you know when I’m supposed to be educating the children 🙂 )
