weekend stuff

Well last wed i went out shopping with my best pal...I still loathe and detest it but she had a wedding on fri so needed to find shoes etc to go with her dress...Besides it was good to just wander and have a blether with no kids around :o) She did find shoes with matching bag and a necklace/earring set that matched as well...Saw a really nice black dress reduced from £40 to £10 for K...Went back and bought it on fri and it doesn't fit PAH!!!...It just doesn't sit right across her boobs and can't be altered because of the style...shame but hey ho...Bought her shoes instead when we were there on sat...G has two of his prelim (mocks) results back...For his Higher (A level) maths he got 88% and an A pass...For his Higher technological studies he got 86½% and an A result...Just waiting on graphic comm one now which he said they should get on wed...By the way up here in scotland there's no A* an A is the highest you get...Am so so so proud of him...He's doing as well as his big sis did :o) G's money did go in on the wed and he popped out on thurs after school to look at games in town...Well so he said, he came back with some choccy seashells and a dragon for me :o) ...The shop round corner was closing down on the fri and i bought most of what they had left half price...Some teensy dragons and 3 fridge magnet ones...The fridge magnet ones i put on my big metal framed mirror in living room...I had bought 2 of the teensy ones for K and just realised i forgot to take them down DUH!!!!...Forgot to take the boys bus passes too DUH!!!

The boys were off on fri for inservice day and today for the one day half term they get here...On sat we went down to edinburgh to visit K...I feel so much happier now having seen her...Just want her well again properly...We went into the city centre as she wanted to take me to the dragon shop on the royal mile...Bad bad bad idea...I was good though and i didn't spend any money i don't have...I could have bought the whole shop just about LOL...Well all the dragons and all the fairys for K...Well some of the dragons too for her as she likes them as well...She told me to pick one i wanted for my birthday...Bad girl wanted to spend more than i would let her...Even what she spent was too much...And yes i know you read this hunny so :oP ...Am not ungrateful i just don't need lots of money spent on me...I do love my new dragon though and i bought 2 flying ones as well with some of my birthday money...It was a beautiful day down there...M actually enjoyed seeing some of the sights in edinburgh which he's never liked before...We didn't actually go and visit any just looked at them as walking along...Like the castle and scott monument...Before when we have actually been in edinburgh M hasn't liked it but he did on sat...We were only down for the day and it would have been nice to stay longer...I was good and remembered K's guitar LOL...Forgotton it the last few times...Was so tired yesterday as that's the longest i've driven since i had the flu thing and all the walking as well...Got K some cycling gloves which hopefully will help her hands not feel so sore with the crutches.

G is off out to a friends for the afternoon/evening so me and M are just lazing about...I do need to do a mass clean and tidy before the workmen come round on wed...Just had to phone them as i forgot when the date was arranged to ask what time they'd be here...Just phoned them and whoops...They'll be arriving when am taking M to school...The woman is phoning the joiner to ask if he can arrive just before 8am so i can let them in before i nip off to take M to school...And that's my catch up for the last week.
