  • Serena - I think I'm a bit better although chest very achy still, especially when I cough, so I wrap up well when I have to go out. Looks like the horse pills might be working! :rotfl:

    Off to do a little gentle vacuuming! :rolleyes:

    Afternoon, sorry chaotic day, DS2s review at school this morning. Just been refered for Autism assessment, aswell as back to OT and speech therapy, unsure how I feel about it to be honest, we were expecting it but still a bit weirdly emotional. Anyway not got much done, but will try better after school pick up. Oh I have found the iron, so need to stick badges on before taking DS2 to beavers!

    Sorry, not very good at the mo, so much going through my head, hope you are all ok, hugs where needed, welcome to newbies (inc zaza stick with us, they're all nice, honest) and promise normal service will resume soon x
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Owwwwwwwwwwwwwww cramp in my legs now! I'm falling apart :( Think I'm going to slowly sort out my room. I have a couple of shelves I want to clear so I can put all my books up properly.
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    Serena - i'm still spotty and very tired but i've managed to get everything on my list done. If you want to send me large amounts of cash that's fine!!!:rotfl:

    I just need to walk to the shops now and then pick up from school. Just one extra child tonight and I can cope with him so that's fine. Looking forward to an early night though....again! xx

    My daily jobs include making beds, washing up (my MACAW is to wash up after every meal instead of leaving it!), any shopping, picking up baby's toys, etc.

    So far today I've done the above jobs I've struck off, plus 1 load of washing/drying - chickenpox baby asleep, so will go & iron now.

    Weather here atrocious, so nothing outside & it's coming cold now as well. All got to go out tonight - GCSE presentation evening for DS - won't be as much fun as had hoped with poor weather & a poorly baby in tow, but it's one of those things you can't miss!

    Hope to do more off tomorrow's list - see you all later & thanks for the support! xo

    Hugs to you lil_me sounds like you could do with them

  • I have a cunning plan!:D

    There are so many poorlies on here at the moment, Lil_me, Gryfon, Mudbath with her senior moments. My house used to be a small residential care home, I'm a qualified carer (including dementia care). Go figure! I could re-open it as a home for distressed gentleflyladies! :D

    BTW - Lil_me - big hugs, difficult and emotional for you, even if you were prepared for it! x
