Yesteray's happenings

Mr Messy was at home as he had a dentist appointment first thing. His teeth are fine and he doesn't have to have any work done, which I'm sure he's pleased about as he's not that keen on the dentist.
I was in a foul mood as Drama Teen had (deliberately I suspect!!) missed the school bus that morning, so instead of a leisurely morning shower and get ready I had to throw my clothes on and get out the house to take Little Prince to school in about five minutes flat! Mr Messy took Drama Teen to school and went straight to the dentist. Once he had returned home I ignored him and let him tidy up (the house has descended into a tip again!!) and most of the mess was his anyway. We were speaking again by lunchtime and went out to a local cafe for lunch. During the afternoon we finished the tidying up and now have a lovely tidy house instead of a messy tip - so I'm in a lot better mood now :-) I just wish I didn't have to get foul with everyone before they actually pick things up after themselves!!!

Fraulein came home from college saying she had done something stupid!! There has been an ongoing situation with a girl and boy, who seem to have an on/off relationship, and the boy has asked Fraulein to go out with him. However, the girl got wind of this and has been nasty to Fraulein. We've previously advised her to stay well out of it and wait until after Christmas and if he is still interested then maybe go out with him. However, he has now kissed Fraulein, so its probably all going to blow up in her face when the girl finds out on Monday!!! Oh dear!!! I'm worried, that Fraulein, as the new girl and with not very well established friendships will be the one ostracised when her friends find out!!!

We are having another HOST student this weekend and I went off to the train station to collect her. Unfortunately just after I arrived at the station I received a call from her to say she had missed her train and would be late! I rang home and Mr Messy checked on the internet and told me when she would arrive - in an hours time!! If I'd have known I would have taken a book to read or something, but had nothing with me and ended up sat in the car listening to the radio for an hour. Eventually the student arrived and we came home via the supermarket to get the ingredients needed to make Parkin.
