Oh dear, we have been pretty slack at welcoming the newest members to the Supermum club

*passes out Welcome showbags - these contain full size bottles of Vodka, Scotch and Bacardi (since it's summer and all), Bubble Bath, Earmuffs and Henna for maintaining your locks and covering the greys. Also a spare blanket for you to hide under.

Mitch is going ok so far, getting INTO the school routine went well, but he was starting to lose it and often at school. I'm going to make sure I do some calming excercises every couple of hours too though. Today we are going to the local pool, as that always works a treat. Pity about the cold weather, I have a lovely pool in the backyard....

I SERIOUSLY hate living here, but having the pool has been utterly wonderful. It calms him, gets his energy out and works every one of his muscles. I don't know what I'm going to do when we move back home. Whenever that will be.....I spent my oven money Xmas presents

I'm refusing to panic, but at the back of my mind I'm really worried about next year. It's going to take AGES to get him back to school routine, new classroom and Aide - I'm desperate to get back to work ASAP
