Today's been tricky. Gorgeous weather. 2 boys stayed over with Mini last night. They sat up playing Xbox all night. When I woke the first time they had fallen asleep downstairs. When I eventually got up (didn't have to be in work by a particular time)they'd gone on, left the Xbox on and left the back door open.

I got ready, bath etc. They came back, multiplied. 5 of them. One wasn't allowed out at all. He was supposed to stay in my house cos his mum's grounded him. They were standing on a street corner, three smoking.

A neighbour called. A scratch on her car overnight (they were playing Xbox) and complaining about them smoking.

Closed the door. Shed a few tears. They came in the back door. I was about to start 'the lecture' when the phone rang. Passed to me. The grounded boy's mum. Mini was messing around in science class on Friday and bumped into someone, who bumped into grounded boy's sister and she spilled boiling water over her arm. The school ran cold water on it and said it would be fine. Now it's up in skin bubbles and 'weeping'. Taking daughter to A & E, been advised to take photos of arm and sue school for compo

I expect he'll end up being expelled or excluded on Tuesday.

I've kinda had enough. I clearly can't do this. Hope ex is prepared for what I want to chat to him about tomorrow when he comes back.

I has a sad. But please, no sympathy. Life is sucky.
