    All the first lot of washing is dry and put away and I did the throws from the living room too and they are almost dry. Still sunny and windy.

    I could really do with a little siesta but waiting for a parcel for DD1. Never mind.
  • Just posting very quickly to say Lil_me ((((hugs)))) Every meeting I have Re: DD3 leaves me feeling emotional drained and sad. Even if I'm fully prepared. It's just a bit rubbish aint it!!! :( You'll be back to normal soon babes! xxxx's

    Right.. back.. and I am in a right old bee... One of my fave teachers at school is moving on.. but the exciting part is I am on the interview panel for the new member of staff!! :D .. Alas it means Tiddles will have 3 new teachers in as many terms so that should be interesting.. I am hoping one of the current members of staff is qualified enough to apply.. I am going to ask her.. she deserves a better position.. anyway.. time will reveal all...

    Thankfully we got out of the meeting at 3:15 as hubby was still not to school by 3:25!!

    I need a cuppa and I have to decide what I want for dinner in 6 weeks time... like I won't have changed my mind! I can't decide what I want on a day to day basis..

    Hi again
    Washing wasn't done in TD, so did all washing up, made beds, hoovered all upstairs (briefly!) & have chopped meat & veg for tea for DH & me - baby still asleep! - 2nd load in WM, will have to go on airer cos my TD is in the garage & I'm not going out there when it's dark, cold & raining - too much for a virgin flylady! :)
    Other clothes should be dry now, so will iron, then DS in from college so he can watch baby while I make tea. Oh, I also emptied & wiped down nappy bin (yuck!). If there's time before we go to DS's presentation evening, I'll start my Christmas lists & do food stocktake.
    That's a lot for me in one afternoon, esp when I was up almost every hour last night cos baby was itchy!
    Hope we're not too late home tonight so I can watch CSI, have a mug of cocoa & crash!
