monday

Silly puter decided it would go wonky again on sat lunchtime...Am sure G is getting paranoid about stuff like this as always seems to be after he's been online...So took it to the shop as it wouldn't boot up properly and man there thought might be my keyboard...They didn't have time to look at it on sat so not long got it back today...The CMOS battery had died, whatever that is...They put in a new one and didn't charge me for it :o) ...When i was there i asked how much an ethernet cable cost and the man gave me a short one for free out of a big binful of cables they had behind the dek :o)

So no computer meant we did loads over the weekend WRONG lol...G didn't make it to snowboarding on fri with having been sick and not to skiing on sat either...He did go to the fun club on sat afternoon though...The boys were both at respite playscheme yesterday so i went to the gym after dropping them off...When i got back K was no-where to be seen...Finally when she deigned to answer her phone she was in town with a friend...I had thought we could go get some more bits and bobs but was not to be...Her friend bought her a new set of fairy wings...They are rainbow coloured and covered in glitter and pretty...I still fail to see what the attraction of fairy wings has to an almost 18 year old but she's a teensy bit mad <ggg> Her visit to edinburgh on fri was to try and get a job in premier travel inn...They will phone her this week telling her if she has been successful or not...Fingers crossed.

On sat we watched the X factor and had a good giggle at it...The rest of the stuff on TV on sat was utter rubbish...After i picked up the boys yesterday we went and bought football boots and long socks...I tried to get another set of shin pads but all the JJB sports shops were sold out of the size M needs <sigh> ...M hasn't tried on his football boots yer but i can return them if they don't fit him...I've been to the gym every day since last wed and feel a lot better for it :o)

Today M had a very sore throat so was off school but he came shopping with me and K after i had got back from the gym...Ended up in poundland buying lots of stationery etc for K to go to uni with :o) ...They didn't have her cutlery left so we got some elsewhere...I think all she needs now is the printer...We are going to asda once we drop her stuff off in her room so anything *missing* can be bought there...Am getting more worried and a bit teary about her going now as sat is approaching fast...My older sister is in same boat as my niece is moving here to the city to do 2 years at uni to turn her HND into a degree...They will be through tomorrow so meeting up with them...We have loads of photos for K to make a montage with to hang up on her wall...M & G want one of the photos put up in their bedroom once she has gone <bless> ...Time to go get the boys ready for footie in the rain and me to weightwatchers <gulp> ...Wonder if my font will stay as comic sans this time or reset itself ROFL...........Toodle pip take care xx
