Is it me or does everyone spent their day dashing from one place to another !!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was one of those days, it was meant to be quiet, normal 9am school start, then work from 9am till 1pm the set up the hall for my club then pick Connor up from school, make some dinner Tye would then take Connor to football practise and I would go and relax and run my club.

Ok Connor wanted to walk with his friends so had to drop him off at friends house as 8.20am. Friends mother asked if I could take one of her sons home after school as she had sports with the other one, not a problem as she is a friend and lovely person and her sons are as good as gold.

So now at work early, and have to find cheap B&B's in London for one of the soldiers, ok task in itself, is there such a thing? Managed to find a few and then couldn't find the military code for the discount off the London Eye, so sent out emails for help and searched.

Went and set up the hall, which took a bit longer than expected, then got home to find that I had had quite a few orders so started packing those up, then had a 'phone call from the vets to say that I could go and collect my Casey's remains, which reduced me to a blubbering mass again.


Managed to pull myself together only to find half the things on the order were still down in the stock room, and it was time to pick up the kids!!! So dragged the kids to the stock room to finish the orders, then home to pack them up, then to the post office and then to the vets!!

I didn't actually know what to say at the vets just told the new receptionist I had come to collect Casey, they obviously couldn't find a dog pick up and asked my name whereupon I received a hushed ohhh and she handed me a carrier bag, ok manged to get back into the car and blub quietly as I had two kids in the back.

Dropped of the first child then got my back and tried to get him into football kit, phone call from Tye saying that he had not yet left work and I would have to take Connor to football and he would pick him up, ok deep breath and try not to get annoyed with husband as it was not his fault!!!!

Came back downstairs to find Connor hugging the box of Casey and crying his eyes out, so massive hugs and talks on how it was for the best whilst trying to pull shin pads onto him.

Managed to get him to football and leave him and get back just in time to finish setting up for the club.

Suddenly remember that I had been a very bad mother and not only forgot an appointment with a new piano teacher, but also forgot to feed said child!!!!!!

Luckily Tye fed them both on pizza on his return!!!!!

Today is going slightly quieter I now just need to find the mess I call a home after yesterday!!!

Casey's box is beautiful, all pine carved and with a plaque with his name engraved on the top, I didn't expect all this, the vet arranged it all for me, but it is beautiful.
