Phew. I'm glad to get to work this morning for a rest!
What a hectic weekend.
Friday - I picked S and her friend up from school, took them to her friends house to get changed and then went on to Sheffield Arena for the concert. It was okay - lots of teenybopper groups (apart from Kaiser Chiefs who bought the house down). Got home around 12.30am. Mick had been to the panto to watch L. I ended up really losing my temper at 3.30am when S and her friend were still awake and keeping me awake.
Saturday - L and I did lots of running around getting ready for her birthday sleepover. S and her friend eventually dragged themselves out of bed and went shopping. Then S and L were both in the panto which I went to watch taking S's friend with me and meeting L's 3 friends there. The panto was hilarious and my bessie, Julie, was playing the dame role and was hilarious. Lots of inuendo's about dumplings, chests and rear admirals (it was called Pirates of Atlantis). Amazing set as usual - one of our friends was a West End set designer in a previous life before moving to the village.
Took all 6 girls home for sleepover. Another 3.30am telling off to shut up. Up early Sunday morning for presents and breakfast (birthday cake and ice cream was the birthday girls choice for everyone) and then off to Derby to Megazone to play a laser gun game thing. Dropped all children that didn't belong to us off at around 3.30pm and then took L into the village where she had seen someone doing hair braiding and henna tattoos. So she used some of her birthday money (she got £150) to get a braid done and a tattoo.
Both girls were fed, showered, in bed and asleep by 7pm.
