Polka the box of chocs.:drool: :drool: :drool:
Froddington big hugs.
Pinkfairy hope your feeling better soon.
Johanne what a shock for you, i had one that would panic and one that wouldn't go to sleep unless the blanket was over his head ( he still sleeps with it over his head now).
Hubby all packed up and away to work (feels weird saying that), not to get something to eat, get wee ones up and ready. Then get the dog in the boot and find the radio. Then run about like a nutter all morning so i'll do the list later.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -

Morning all
I have joined this thread with good intentions more times than I care to remember!! But I'm back.....again.
My DD is 7 weeks old and I feel ready for a little organistion (ha! ha!) in my life. I also have DS who is 2 and DH who is currently on crutches with a pot on a broken ankle. He has gone back to work today after 7 weeks off (2 paternity the rest off sick) so I am back into a normal routine. I think I will paste the lists and try to attempt as much as time (or DS) allows!! If I achieve anything it will be more than normal. I am however a champion tea drinker so that part should be easy.

Morning all
Well to say it's the first day back at school it was all pretty calm and collected here!!
All uniform present and correct, shoes shined and I even found the PE kit and book backs, think that deserves a dog biscuit at least
We were going to walk all the way but it is p*ssing it down here so we drove to Mum's and walked from there. I am now FREE until 3pm
Hugs for you Johanne, they do have a habit of scaring us mum's don't they! l hope you all settled eventually and managed to have a good night.
Serena hope it goes as well as it can today, will be thinking of you.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -
