    I've just received the referral acknowledement for Tiddles podiatry so that has got through pretty quickly.. apparently the waiting time is pretty short 4-6 week sat the moment depending on where you want to be seen.

    Between my brood I worked out we have.. actually this is split between 5 of them..

    3 consultant paediatricians (2 see the same one)
    2 orthopaedic surgeons (both see the same one)
    2 physio
    1 OT
    2 Podiatry
    1 eye surgeon
    2 specialist nurse (both see the same one)
    1 psychologist
    1 community paediatrician
    1 school nurse (enuresis clinic)

    Not to mention.. the dentist and the opticians and the vet!

    Then they wonder why I forget an appointment every now and then!

    Mine is in next Friday.. no kittens AT ALL for her.. the RSPCA are putting healthy kittens to sleep here because they cannot rehome them! I am having mine chipped at the same time so we know she is ours!

    Is that the time already? :eek::eek::eek: No wonder I had to stop and eat/drink!

    I've put the big bookcase up by myself :D It said 2 people recommended. I read through the instructions and two people were not required, 1 person and a wall to push up against (to ensure the screws gripped into the wood properly), then some gentle moving of stuff (lining dowels & lockscrews up) and some elbow grease and its up :D:j:j

    I think I'm going to attempt at least one of the CD towers before DD gets in as she's supposed to be having an early night and if she decides to help with both we may still be here Monday morning - she is good though, she just wants to do everything on her own.

    Off I go again.... :wave:

    well done Nicki!

    I am hungry too and am going to get a shower and grab some lunch then head out with my laptop and my internet dongle (if it will work) for a coffee and to get some keys cut for work. Boss has just reminded me on the phone that i need to fill in some applications for training courses. we have a big budget for it and i don't want to miss out, so i thought i could do that over a coffee in Starbucks :)

    ok, ive been to work,came home and went straight to spare bedroom-you can now see the bed, the floor, and the dressing table, hoorah......as long as you dont look in the wardrobe(which needs desummerising), everything is looking ship-shape, oh and dont look under the dressing table- not a pretty site, but it will wait till next week now.
    i only have about 6 or7 things needin ironing so think i will crack on with that now, thanks for all your words of encouragement
