    Off to bed for me now. After a 2 mile walk to get there, and the 3 1/2 hour stint in the hairdressers I'm shattered!

    Night all!

    PS well done to all who completed their lists, hugs for those who need them, and congratulations where appropriate.

    Evening lovelies, i have spent a lot of the day rushing and this is the 1st time i have popped into MSE. I am just chilling with a vodka and oj, and will be heading up to rest my head very soon. I really don't know where this week has gone, but i think it has been productive so i am not going to moan about it. Just means we are that bit closer to the weekend and family fun. ;) Or closer to sofa delivery and not having done anything for it. oops. :rolleyes:

    Strikey strikey, and a quick looksie at what you have been playing at today. My striking will be feeble but i got in at nearly 8pm, got washing in, watered neighbours hanging baskets as she is away and they are looking droopy, then ds2 woke and i fed him while DH cooked dinner again, and then i came on the puter about 9:15. Where does the day go?


    • [STRIKE]get both boys up and dressed[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]feed DS1 breakie[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]peg out dark load of clothes[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]get butternut squash and lentil soup on[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]do swapover with sis of ds1[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]take ds2 for 2nd lot of jabs - how is my baby 12 weeks already?[/STRIKE] also did baby clinic, seems though it was at drs too, and little tubby is now 14Ib14Oz.
    • drop dresses off at charity shop
    • [STRIKE]lunch at our house for the boys? or at my parents[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]wash up breakie and lunch dishes[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]go to parents house with sister[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]take boys swimming[/STRIKE] in water for about 1 hour - both boys loved it till ds1 slipped and bumped his head - ouch, luckily only grazed and not bleeding
    • [STRIKE]get boys ready for bed at mums[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]bring them home and get in bed[/STRIKE]
    • kitchen - clean sink/draining board
    • [STRIKE]load WM up again[/STRIKE] washed a load of DHs darks, got them dried on line outside
    • spare room - HHI x2 or 3, pack up box of 12-18 month stuff, and box of 0-3 stuff - must do as it keeps appearing on list
    • put away pile of filing
    • empty shredder
    • finish shredding pile of paper
    • chuck out dead plant into green bin
    • [STRIKE]plant sprouted pepper seeds[/STRIKE]
    ooooh - that doesn't actually look too bad. Could be better but why do i always feel the need to bash myself.

    Having a full day at home tomorrow, DH away working until late, so i will tackle the spare room of doom then.

    night ladies. x

    Hugs Redmadcurls - what a day you've had xx

    Look away if you're feeling delicate. Went to see the nurse at my GPs who sent me straight to A&E with a letter which meant I got seen quickly :D . I've broken the tip off the bone in my finger and they don't know if the nerve damage is temporary or not. I also had a haematoma (sp?) under the pad of my finger which they emptied out. The nail is bruised but not too badly but they think that will come off. They've strapped it up so I now look a right demic when I where my wrist and thumb brace too. It hurts a lot less now it's strapped. I also got some gas and air whilst they felt it all and manipulated a bit. I love that stuff. So all in all i'm glad I went....thank you for talking me into it :o xx

    Awh thanks so much for the hugs from you all, probably totally inappropriate to share on this forum but the two people I normally cry to (sis and bestie) are sadly the people in need. So thank you for allowing me to whinge about my tough day. xx

    Mudders - love all that guts and gore stuff! Seriously, glad you went to A&E - you may look 'strange' but at least there going to fix ya (well you finger anyway)

    Sexymouse - you never mentioned if you have a wonderful, amazing hairstyle - after you marathon session at hairdressers.

    Michelle - As always your posts make me tired.........I marvel at how you fit it all in and still manage to down yourself cuz you haven't done enough!

    Nicki - hows the meals from stock going - any weird combo's yet.

    Sarah - Heard that Mamma Mia is awesome - might drag best friend next week for a little light relief!

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    Mudbath - that sounds so sore - glad you totally ignored my advise not to go and hope it heals soon, do you have to go back?

    Right off to bed now.

    See you all tomorrow - sweet flying dreams x

    :o:o Well its not exactly going to plan
    • Sunday night (DD's first night back) : peanutbutter & jam sandwiches with cheesy nacho crisps
    • Monday : Was suppose to be eggs/bacon/sausage but it was still frozen. Can't remember what we had instead though :o
    • Tuesday : Take away Pizza (got caught in a terrible downpour and dived into the first shop :o We did buy the cheapest one though at £3 for a 10" one)
    • Wednesday : Crumpets (whoopsie from Somerfield)
    I start running down stuff tomorrow. I promise :o

    Bed time - via bed making & a bath :o:o :wave:
