    *Groans* well ok then, only if you promise to share with the children.

    I feel that incoholic refreshments need to be present for me to [strike]endure[/strike] listen to singstar.


    BTW I have the voice of a 1000 howling constipated dogs.;):D

    I am a fine singer... 'onnist!!

    I am a very bad loser though.. and I gloat like a gleeful chimp when I win..

    I'm getting a little giddy here - i was sorting out hols clothes while the boys are snoozing, and i remembered to look in my suitcase, and i have so many clothes!!!!

    I need to have a major trying on session i think when i get some more time tonight, but i am feeling rather excited. I think some of it might fit. It's all stuff i put away when i was preggers with ds1 at about 8 weeks, and vaguely tried on last year but i was still too fat, but this time i weigh about 1-11/2 stones less, and although my shape is different there is a good chance it might fit -including some shorts, so i might not need to shop after all, just wash, in fact, i might try some on now. :j and report back later - i will not know what to wear - i have been wearing the same 2 pairs of jeans and 3 combats for so long i won't know what to do.

    Anyone for a mars bars ice cream?

    Both children have made friends on the sports week so i'm in for an easy time of it!!

    Dusty - yes, we have leeks in. One of the old guys said to dig a hole and put the leak in but not to fill the hole in. It looked really odd but he's right as they've filled themselves in and the leeks look really strong. They're great for giving us tips up at the allotment. Just a bit worried about leaving it for two and half weeks if we do get away next week.

    I really should do some flying....I really, really should...:rolleyes:

    We have run out of milk and I don't think I can be bothered to go to the shop :( Good job we have some cappucino mix complete with dried milk included!

    To do today:
    Unofficial list!
    [STRIKE] Ring midwife to arrange appointment for later this week/[/STRIKE]Ring community midwife office to tell them I have changed midwives - phone was engaged!
    [STRIKE] Empty dishwasher/Put dirty things in dishwasher[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE] Phone DF's mum to arrange babysitting his sister tomorrow (haha building up my reserves!!)[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE] Eat lunch!! (I always forget) - And wash up frying pan[/STRIKE]
    Put washing on airer
    Level 1
    [STRIKE] Clear and wipe all surfaces[/STRIKE] - Done properly this time, looks lovely now.
    [STRIKE] Clear 1 windowsill[/STRIKE] - The only kitchen windowsill is clear anyway having been done last week but I decided to cross it out anyway!
    Level 2 & 3 ... to be decided!

    I feel like I'm finally making progress with this cleaning lark, I have decided each day now I'm going to look on the OS board for quick and easy lunch ideas rather than snacking on crisps and biscuits all day with the occasional soup, noodles or sandwich. Today I had bacon and tinned tomatoes on toast which was lovely. Also, DF came home early for an hour or so and although he had to go back into work it was nice to see him.

    So pleased I have managed to change midwives as my main midwife made me feel like a little schoolgirl and I was always worried about asking her questions in case she thought I was silly, and the new one has said that this week she will see me at home, and for the rest of my appointments at the hospital which is actually closer to my house than my doctors surgery is! Just the parking charges to contend with then I suppose :confused:
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right

    well,I cleaned out the fridge at 6.30 am as sprog had laid down an open
    Milk. Sat in car now waiting to go into work, first bank health care shift on a and e. Excited and nervous too,LOL. Have to get here early to get a parking space.
    Finished my shift with no problems. Started off gradually and built up. However, I'm far too tired to do anything else today, I promise I'll make a start tomorrow.
