Hi

Hugs to Michelle i hope your feeling a bit better. You're doing a great job with those boys. I agree with what others have said if i were you i'd just do the bare minimum. i've got a big gap between my two but when they were babies i struggled and that was with only one at a time.

I have collected my car but they've lost the paperwork for the new radiator and fuel injector thingy:mad: . So i still haven't paid for it. Also my heaters not working so i told them cause they fitted a new radiator but apparently it's not coming from there.:mad: More stinking money spent on that stupid car:mad: :mad: :mad:

I can't remember what else i wanted to say

Pigpen, no they wouldn't, because we're all still raising our glasses. I certainly haven't yet stood up and said "Hello, I'm Soappie, I'm an alcoholic...". I purely self-administer the medicine that helps ... ermmmm. ermmmm. lift my depression? Put on my rose tinted glasses... ermmmm ... errmmmmm ... stops me clogging up the Doctor's surgery...

Pooh - could you please send some of that nice weather this way please? We have had wal to wall rain just about all day and I'm getting fed up with the sound of drip drip drip from the leaks in the guttering...

Hello everyone, I'm a flybaby. I'm going to start shining my sink every day again and take it from there. I now get dressed (to the shoes!) everyday even when I don't "need" to and I lie my clothes out before bed and I often make my lunch for the next day. I have planned my meals for the coming week too.

:eek: I have been misinterpreted
Not sure how to regain my composure now...*heading for the bottle*

After thinking long and hard about this, every reply I write to that only makes it sound worse....*digging a bit more*

Hugs to those with ill kiddlets and those not feeling too hot themselves.

Had a big day yesterday - NEW BED ARRIVED!! So spent the afternoon trying to empty the old waterbed, pull it all apart - they are blardy heavy! - vacuuming all the dust behind the bed, bringing in new bed, putting it together, making it. We need a stepladder to get into it - it is SO high!

Also:
Cleaned, disinfected kitchen, dining
Three loads of washing including blankets
Walked dogs
Curves
Cleaned, dusted lounge, computer desk
Pulled everything out of ensuite and cleaned all
Vacuumed living, entry, laundry
Washed floors kitchen, entry, laundry, bathrooms
Kids cleaned their bathroom and toilet
Took OH to town to buy Bonus Bonds
Took DS3 to town to join gym (has to for PE at school)
Chatted with neighbour :rolleyes:

Will be back shortly with todays list.

And Michelle, hun, remember, today is today, tomorrow will be tomorrow. You are finding today hard - and justly so because you're pooped. Tomorrow may be the same, it may be better, it may be worse. But, live the moment right now. And take time in stages.

Think - well, I can get throught the next five minutes. Then set your target of the next 15 minutes. Then say well I did that 20 minutes, I can do the next hour. Once you've done that, you can do the next two hours, then the next 4 hours (which is one-sixth of a day). Before you know it, you'll be coping with 24 hours! And hey! Another day's passed, the kids are another day older. And you still love them.. And you are beginning to take control.


But, I'm off to bed now I think. Am still peeing for the world but have had no kidney pain for about 6 hours now. DiL has just given me a book as a present called "The Timewaster Letters" which looks really interesting so I think I'll just go and sit in the armchair for 30 minutes and start reading it.

Night night ladies

TAG

Tag I too love Kathy Reichs currently I am reading Bare Bones have you read any Patricia Cornwell?

Hi Electra

Yeah I've read a couple, but that was a few years ago. I picked up 5 or 6 of her books and then I discovered Sue Grafton so sort of went in that direction till I discovered Karin Slaughter.

I've got loads of books upstairs. I don't read for a few months and then I'll go on a reading binge. Prefer to read more in the winter though. Escape from the winter blues I suppose.

I read Katie Price's Angel (I think that's what it was called ) Bit rubbish to start but ended up not being able to put it down. Keep meaning to get Crystal her second one. Like quite a wide range of genres in books me.

Thanks for the hugs lil me. Headache has gone now. Found some Ibuprofen.

Reports still doing my head in though. Do you think I'll get away with 'the computer says NO'? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Welcome Firepoppy

Electra_King

:hello: Welcome Firepoppy

TAG I use to read Sue Grafton a long time ago, not sure what letter I got up to :think: I do have O is for Outlaw sitting on my bookshelf though.

Not sure on Patricia Cornwell only read one of hers, Hornets Nest which was ok but not as good as Kathy Reichs.

I really enjoyed Susan Hill, need to get the new one from the library when it comes available.
