Opps!

Wow! it's March already. I wish I had the power to slow down time! Actually I am having fun, I would like to finish the house before summer, it will be nice to be able too come home from where-ever and relax.
Hmm an update..
15 year old has decided that he wants to live here, after living un-successfully with his dad for months. This is fine, but is now posing a new problem.. where is he going to sleep. So far he has the playroom bed settee. He seems to manage ok with this. Looks like I am going to be switching rooms around.. again.
Eldest is still fighting for his student grant, and is still staying here. While it is lovely to have all the kids at home, the strain of it all is somewhat hard work.

The other four are fine. Little miss "princess" is her usual self. It is getting harder to explain too her why she can't wear that skirt that is just a little bit shorter than a mother would like. The boys are growing fast, and their appetites are growing just as much!
We are about to start using a "sticker rewards chart" system, in the hope that they will keep their bedrooms tidy. I will get backatcha all to let you know how that one goes!

Me.. I have nearly finished my ECDL cert. (European Computer Driving Licence) Didn't know you had to have a licence to use a comp.. but there you go! lol
In amongst the washing, ironing and shopping, I am having a real good time. There are days I feel down.. not about previous things.. just where I let things like finances..bills and whatver, worry me.
The Ex is stll being the worlds biggest (insert your word here), but I kinda expect that. He has listened to me though when I told him that he is not welcome on my doorstep no more. He waits at the end of the road now when he comes for the kiddies.

I'd like to say all is well in the household.. but I am a firm believer of not speaking before events. So I will leave you all with a smiley face instead.
