50 shames of Earl Grey

I have a gazillion things to do!!! 

I have Scarlett back again after not having her for 2 nights (I'm not going to lie it was lovely) but I did not use my time wisely while she was away to get things done. 

I went out for dinner one night and went to the pub the other but at least I'm supporting local businesses! 

But I needed to....

Book my driving test (my instructor is going to have a go at me now tomorrow...oops.)

Sign up for volunteering at the homeless charity.

Book my holiday in September. Child free thank you - insert bad mother comments here.... 

Sort out the paperwork for Scarlett's school dinners and other various bits of time consuming paperwork.

Google how to control my child. 

Sort all of my contacts and apps out after dropping my phone down the toilet.

Look for a car. Not that I will be able to park it in MY designated parking space as someone has parked in it! Can't wait for them to see the note I've left. Mind you it will probably not get read like the parking ticket which is next to it.

But What chance have I got of doing the above now when I found this in the library?! 

Well there is always tomorrow, or maybe I will hire a PA....and a tow truck. 

Donk of the day....

Had a lovely lazy day today, had a bath this morning and found out it is best to ensure the plug is in properly to ensure it fills up correctly (it only took me ten minutes of sitting in the bath thinking...I swear the water is not going up.)

Then I dropped my phone down the toilet. 

Yes I did. Tip of the day don't put your phone in your back pocket and pull your trousers down. Thank god the toilet was clean, though I did stand looking at my sunken phone for a few seconds as I was debating putting my hand in the toilet. 

I'm so glad I have an iPhone the the cloud stored all of my photos so I have them on my new phone, also so glad I got insurance for the first time ever! 

On Scarlett news.....misbehaving as usual with an answer for everything. I know I shouldn't laugh but she comes out with comedy gold like earlier when I told her to do as she was told and she just looked at me and said 

"Rude."

I think it's time to google how to discipline my child, or myself. 

Grey baby in my tummy!

Walking to nursery with Scarlett this morning....

Scarlett: 'have you got a baby in your tummy?' 

Me: 'What?! No I haven't!'

Scarlett: 'Oh.' 

Think if she knew the word awkward, she would have said it.

Think I need to lay off the chocolate cake, but I'm booking my holiday tomorrow maybe that might spur me on to shake my ass more, I say as I am laying in bed ready to sleep at 9.45pm.

It's the blooming heat though, it make even just breathing exhausting.  

However I was hoping the 'highly anticipated' 50 shades of grey trailer would get me a bit hot under the collar but it fell a bit flat, or soft should I say. 

The main leads are nowhere near attractive enough. I'm not saying I'm some sort of goddess, but for arole which entails being dark and menacing he's just dull. A bit grey but defiantly not 50 shades. 

Obviously I will be going to the cinema to watch the actual film, just to ensure it is as disappointing as I think it's going to be. (Obviously....) 

I did it!!!!

I did it, I blooming did it! I passed my theory test, literally can't believe it, I'm so elated and happy!!! 

Also found my dream car, a nice lil convertible which I can cruise around town in. Just me and Scarlett with the roof down rocking to summer tunes.

Not that I will be actually able to afford to take my test.... £62.00!!! What a cheek! £62.00 for an hour?! The examiner better be good....that's all I'm saying. 

Will have to watch out I don't eat too much more else I will be cruising around on two side wheels. This bad boy made its way into my fridge, then into the oven, burnt a bit, into the bin and repeated until half the cake was in the bin. 

Just saving on the calories, it's genius I tell you!! 

Too many questions!

Why are there nearly 1,000 questions in this theory book for a test which is only going to ask 50?

Why do I have to know what to do with a red triangle in the back of a car I don't own yet? 

Why do I have to know what a catalytic convertor is?

Can someone tell me what the above is?

Why have I read 6 chapters of this book and remember nothing? 

Why am I blogging when I should be revising? 

Where is my provisional licence? 

Why is there a cat on my back? 

Where is my bed?

'I don't like the dragon ride!'

'Can we go on it again?!'

After promising Scarlett yesterday we could go on the dragon ride at the fair, we gleefully went this morning after our Maccy d's breakfast (and after I had spent an hour shopping for new sunglasses as I had left mine at home. Why is sunglass shopping so difficult?!)

So we went on the ride which is like a baby rollacoaster and after the first time we went round it went round again with Scarlett crying she didn't like it, I said not to worry as it will stop in a second. 3 laps of the rollacoaster later we finally came to a stop. 

Then she said 

'I don't like the dragon ride.....can we go on it again?!'

At £5.00 for the both of us.....no. 

Why are rides so expensive these days? When I was a kid I swear I went to the funfair with a tenna and still came back with change. 

What's it going to be like in ten years time? Parents will be having to give their kids £50 pocket money for a night at the fair and a burger. If they are really lucky maybe some candy floss, after enquiring about how much a pathetic looking bag cost today £2.50!!!!) probably not. 

I told the woman I didn't have enough change, I really didn't but the guy next to me looked at me like 'ah playing that trick are you?!' 

Bet he wished he had when he was handed back tuppence from his £20 note for a hot dog and a couple of dummy sweets and a bit candyfloss. Mind you he did have 2 kids, thank god I've only got one!
