in the words of Celine Dion..all by myself!

Its been a mad weekend and now here I sit trying to come up with a halfway decent design for the parenting group website and nada..

Perhaps I'm too relaxed! I've gotten to listen to my music after 3 hours of Charmed. I think Living TV have shares in it. Mammy2 and the kid are having their afternoon suss. Life with two people suffering from depression, eh?

Good job I'm a happy go lucky person else I'd be pretty peeved to be spending the last evening of a bank holiday working on a website when I was planning on family trip to the cinema. I should know better to make plans with those two!

Seriously though, they just need their downtime and then they'll be fine. The kid is missing the boyf and Mammy2 has that horrible feeling of returning to work in the morning. That combined with being annoyed about everything being green in the flat.

The kid was working on her fabric print last night and this morning. The chopping board, the dish cloth, the tea towels and some of the floor now are green. Green which won't be removed without some serious elbox grease. Mammy2's head started to spin once dinner was over and everything she touched in the kitchen was green.
Did I mention tomorrow this infamous project is being handed up? I cannot wait. There's a skull rolling around on top of the toilet. I don't ask questions any more!

Although I am dreading tomorrow as well. We have to meet the year head, a woman with no heart by the way. She'd make Margaret Thathcher look like an angel. She has a thing, and not in a good way, for people who wear black eye makeup.

Kids these days have enough to contend without having to measure how close their tie is to their neck and whether taking their jumper off on hot day is going to get them a note or worse suspension.

This is going to be the first time in my life I go into a school situation not apprehensive because I know what she's going to say and I know what I am going to respond with.

My first concern is the kids mental health and we have come from a pre christmas suicide attempt to her attending class most of the days and doing her best, so as far as I'm concerned she is doing fantastic.
The meeting is in relation to re-registering your kid. Oh what a way to start back into things eh?

She also annouced today at dinner that she wasn't going to Mam's anniversay Mass, which is fair enough. I wouldn't force her and to be honest she's doing so well these days, I think it might be a step back going there. The relatives will of course do their raising of eyebrows, they're big on what the neighbours think and eyebrows!

Let the neighbours think whatever they want, we do what Mam expects of us and no-one else. They're probably still reeling from the events of last year in relation to her funeral. No wake, no open coffin, not going with the local undetakers and a creamation. It was the talk of the place, mainly because the nosey bats wanted to know what she died from. Maybe we should have made a statement.

I hate small towns and small town attitudes. Now, I'm time wasting here instead of designing.
