Morning girls
Back at work today for another week's slog.
Well on Friday I managed to watch the first ten minutes of Benidorm before falling asleep. I was so tired after having looked after my friend's children. I took them to the park because it was a nice day.
Dawn, yes you deserve a break. I would try and arrange a romantic evening out. We went out on Good Friday when staying at my mums. We only go out when we visit her in Birmingham, because we don't have a babysitter where we live.
Jo, hope your ok.
Better get on with some work.
lots of love Loux

Hi to you both,
Well Flick breaks up from school today at 1.15!!! It was hardly worth going really wasn't it. I'm collecting some of the other children up whose mums work on Fridays and can't finish early enough to collect them. So we will have a house full this afternoon - should be fun.
Jo. Yes I know what you mean. I would much rather Dave or any of my mates, be totally honest with me rather than let me buy something to wear that makes me look awful. I am always honest with other people. I'm sure whatever you wear will look great!!
Well I am going to make a concerted effort to tune into Benidorm tonight. I saw a brief preview last night and it looks really funny. There isn't much on TV at the moment to make laugh is there?
Anway better get on with the cleaning. Dawn now you have got your cleaning done, you can relax all weekend. Is it this weekend you go away?
Anyway hope you and your kids are well. (Jo glad to hear you are feeling a bit better).
Take care
Luv Loux

I have done really well today with my eating i had cereal for breakfast then a sandwich and now we are cooking a curry I am having rice and the others are having chips!!.I have drank more water then usual and have only had 2 cups of tea!!.
Way-Hay Benidorm tommorow!!.I can't wait .I hope its as funny as last weeks!!.I got a bottle of wine for the occasion aswell.HAHAHAHA.
I have actually changed my mind about wearing that policewomans outfit!!!..I am kind of on the big side at the min and I don't want to make a fool of myself wearing it.I kind of had a go at me best mate today because of it she is a size 8 and is really thin and she keeps saying you look ok and i know I don't so I kind of got upset about it!!.

Hello both,
Jo. I have heard Slimming World is good, I think it is better than Weight Watchers. I need to shift a couple of stone myself somehow. I know if Dave had to choose whether I wore a nurses outfit or a Policewoman's one, I know which one he would choose!! lol.
I am at work today. It seems to have been a very long week. Trying to arrange child care for the next two weeks as Flick starts a two week holiday.
Dawn. It was great to chat to you earlier. Hope you enjoy your weekend away.
Anyway must go need to do some work

Morning both,
Dawn. Glad Maddison's appointment went ok. Clarks do a good range of boots, some of them knee high and lots of ankle boots. I am going on Friday to get Fen some ankle boots because they give more support than normal shoes. Hopefully she will get some wear out of them before the weather gets warmer (wishful thinking ha ha). All of our birthdays are in October/November time so we are restricted on what we can do. By the way, while of think of it can I please have yours and your lo's birthdays so I can send a nice online card to you all. Mine is 18th November, Felicity's is 22nd October and Fen's is 14th November. I bet you are looking forward to your trip to Wales. That will be great and I am sure the weather will be lovely that time. Have a great time in Scarborough. I will send a text.
We are going to a caravan park in Dorset this year. Booked for last two weeks in August. It has on site entertainment and everything. Not brave enough to do a foreign holiday yet!! Jo, are you going to Benidorm? Do you stay with your in-laws?
Jo. When is the hen-night. Is it a weekend trip or a night out? I hope you have a great time. Thanks for the texts yesterday. Sorry the last one was a bit short. I was nackered and not thinking straight!!
Anyway I am at work today so better get on and do some work.
Bye for now both
Lots of love

Hello to you both,
Madison's other appointment went ok if you can understand them haha, got to go to clarks and get her some boots, do they not realise it will be summer soon( i hope ) they want to review in 3 months. So when is your birthdays? mine hopefully will be sunny as it is in July, and we are going to Wales a few days after it, so something to look forward to, need to get away. We are going to Scarborough next Friday for a long weekend which hopefully the weather will be ok.
Jo i wouldn't worry about Lewis with training Madison has been brilliant and now gone backwards and like Lou said he will do it when ready Chelsea started on Madison's birthday last year in January and she was 3 in June i was glad that she was done before nursery,
Lou bless ya its hard enough bringing up kids let alone working and keeping a house, sometimes i look and think what have i done today as the house looks a tip but when i have a mummys boy that won't leave my leg alone most days there isn't a lot i can do and when you do get it looking nice they get all the toys out again, (thats life) but like us women we bounce back you can always pm if you wish
Getting on a different subject i looked on the Ann Summers web site JO that policewomans outfit
i couldn't believe my eyes lol i hope you have a body guard (Eddy) he might go out with you HahahaRight got to get the other 2 up they are still in bed ( i wish)
Talk later and i will add your number Lou
Luv Dawn xx

Hi girls,
Today is my day off. Took Fen to a toddler group this morning which was fun. Now she is in her highchair feeding herself.
Dawn. Hope Madison gets on ok at her next hospital appointment. Like you say she may have been out of sorts with a tummy bug. That was nice to be taken to the pub for a meal. You need a lift now and then.
Jo. Flick wasn't toilet trained until she was 3. I really wouldn't worry about it. I used to get stressed and leave the potty which Flick refused to use. I found the summer time best because I could keep her nappy off at certain times. He will get there Jo, I promise.
Sometimes I feel under pressure because I do everything in the house, the shopping, cleaning, looking after the kids, I do the bedtimes routines on my own, washing, ironing and work three days a week. Sometimes I wish Dave would help me. Everytime I ask for help he says I go to work and do 14 hours bla bla bla. He has this perception that I only work part time and do nothing on my days off. In fact, I work seven days a week. I know he helps a lot because he takes Wednesdays off to have the girls, but if he didn't do this I would not be able to work and we wouldn't be able to live in our house because I have to pay some of the mortgage to keep our heads above water.
I've never told anyone this, especially my mum because she would go mental, but after I gave birth to Fenella, Dave left me in the delivery suite and went home because he was tired. I was on my own being transferred to the post natal ward. I've never said anything to him about this, but inside I felt really angry. I just felt he didn't want to be around me. Anyway enough of that. I have to say generally Dave is a great husband and father. Maybe I ask too much I don't know.
Anyway, I hope you both have a lovely day. Weather is nice here, at least it is dry and sunny. I may take Flick to the park after school.
Catch up with you both later,
Lots of love
