Morning All!!

Feeling chipper today as have been swimming today before work, thanks to mum for taking erin to school... 32 lengths this time, which is half a mile!!

Very chuffed with myself, hair looks like shiite again though, this is a real drawback about this swimming before work malarky......

i considered posting flylady but i will leave it to the cleanbeans who do housework... i do minimal personally, that's big G's department....!
I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    morning all,

    I'm feeling like shoite this morning, so can only hope everyone has a better day than me.

    I'm going to be really busy today - anything to keep my mind busy and off Thursday's scan.

    Maz - well done on the swimming. I didn't go yesterday and I'm sure it's contributing to my downness today. I'm hoping to go for a swim tonight and aim for 26 lengths.

    Sar - good luck at the dentists, rather you than me!!!

    SF - loving the piccie.

    SF - no, it's the first of four fetal anomaly scans. I've got this one (10 weeks) and another at 12 weeks, another at 14 weeks and then hopefully no more until 20 weeks.

    It's just because the last time, the fetus was anencephalic (the skull and brain didn't develop properly) so they're being very cautious this time, but it's not doing much good for my nerves:o.

    Good luck for your scan on Friday.

    Morning all. Interesting start to the day - tried to put the kettle in the fridge this morning:rotfl: HUbbles is now busy telling the world about my baby brain...

    Cat - big hugs - read your post on yesterday's thread this morning. I was havinghorrendous nightmares and I haven't had any previous problems so it must be so much harder for you. Are you feeling sick and tired still? That's a sign of a strong pregnancy according to the experts on the pregnancy thread so take heart from that. I was convinced there would be no heartbeat at the scan on Friday but Bean was there waving and somersaulting, little heart beating like mad. Hormones and worry - not an easy mix to live with. Take it as easy as you can. :grouphug:

    I_A - good luck at the dentist. You're such a great Mum - My Mum hated the dentist so much she never took me and I inherited her fear. Determined not to pass that on to Bean as its horrendous.

    merMaz - well done on the swimming. Is there no hairdryer at your gym? If you want I have a hot air brush that I don't use - its yours if you want it.

    Hugs and cheers where appropriate. Will report back on any further kettle type incidents:rotfl:

    Am trying to autumn clean the kitchen but those damn dogs keep bringin mud into the kitchen and it is just getting so grubby hey ho!

    My camera has died, which in one way is not so bad as I really want a digital SLR but on the other hand means some hard saving as I need it for work!! ideally I need it for the 25th because Ebay are starting a better deal for business customers!!!
