    Good Morning all xx

    I have part caught up on the thread, i didn't get chance at all yesterday and today i am going to the Ridings centre (shopping again) :o, thats an all day job.

    So now i am going to have a fly through the house for the next hour whilst getting the little uns ready for school, i made up packed lunches last night so thats one job done.

    To do before 9am....

    Clear sides,
    clear floor in living room
    load dishwasher,
    load airer
    apply makeup lol i need to look alive....

    not much of a list today:j i have done really well its amazing how the power of an hospital appointment kicks you into serious flying!:rotfl:

    Frodders hope your little pupil is opk today, hugs for you and pupil xx
    Pigpen, i know where your coming from when i first started with all the lady problems i have, i was sent for a kidney scan :rotfl: and gall bladder scan. I was finally sent to gynae after telling the doctor again what my issue was and asking how long have kidneys and gallbladder been in control of my menstrual cycle. And now all they want to do is offer me lots of drugs or do an ablation and if it fails i can take some more drugs.....
    Soappie good luck for today hun xx

    Hugs for everyone else that needs them, my brains not fully going yet and i am feeling guilty for sitting here and not flying x

    Hopefully i will get on later in the afternoon or this evening this thread is growing so much :rotfl:

    I need fuel now i am starving :p

    Happy flying ladies xx
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?

    ... try yogi tea as an anti-inflammatory. The cinnamon one will probably be most effective, but they've all got the relevant spices in...

    Hi greenbee
    Ouch!!! (makes note not to moan about small twinges)
    I've see yogi tea on sale but didn't realise it was an anti-inflammatory. Will have to investigate further, thanks.

    I'll not mention it again.. promise..

    ETA in reply to a question.. I have rheumatoid (hands and wrists) and osteoarthritis in my legs (ankle to hip). Thankfully my back is fine but my hips and particularly my left knee are chronic.. but we do what we must to survive..
    Mention all you need to. That's what friends are for.
    Be honest if it was one of us - or one of your children, you would be nagging just like we are.

    Pigpen - Sorry, just worried about you being in pain so much. :o

    Todays plan :
    • Before I leave:
      • Sort photos on camera out
      • Finish bag (glasses, camera, MP3 player)
    • Placement (NVQ work at break & lunch - taking photos of fire points, disabled access etc ;) Shows I know where they are as well ;) While trying not to get spooked out by the person who I keep seeing out the corner of my eye in the corridor but isn't there :confused::o )
    • Ironing (DD's Brownie uniform is needed by 5.30 :o ) so will do it while watching TV between placement and Brownies
    • Dark wash / TD - & IRON
    • Tea - Pasta
    • DD to Brownies for 6pm with sponsor form
    • Kitchen list from yesterday
    • LR list as much as possible
    • Stuff ready for tomorrow
    Already done :
    • Sandwiches for me for the rest of the working week made and in fridge
    • Stuff for me for today ironed. (DD didn't need anything)
    • Bag mostly ready
    Now I need to shift myself. I haven't finished my breakfast yet and its nearly time for me to get in the bathroom and apply my face!!! :eek: :wave:

    :hello: Woke up sore and stiff this morning, especially my back :( Aches to bend over which is a pain as I have lots of stuff on the floor that needs clearing. Shall take it slowly though and just do as much as I can. What's the betting though as soon as I see the back doctor it clears up? Would be nice for once to be able to touch my lower back and not feel tender!

    Hugs to pigpen and everyone else who needs one.

    Flylady_Flower...made it and 2 out of my 3 loved it! I've been picking and so has my brother. May try one with no sultanas in for Mr G and boy as that's what's putting them off.

    Apologies if I've missed anyone, I feel as rough as a badgers **** at the moment! When Mr G gets home he's being sent back to bed till lunchtime as he was working till 3am and I feel mean as he got up before me and has taken the children to school. Can anyone think of anything nice but not expensive and not too physical (oo err!) I can do for him? Want to show that I do appreciate him even if I don't show it and he's a tad bit hopeless with the housework, he does try! ;)
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    Morning all

    By eck it's cold out there today. Kids all deposited at school and I am about to hit the shower as there was not enough time before school, W climbed into our bed at 5am and did his whirling helicopter bit until 10 mins before we were due to get up :rotfl:

    Soappie hope you manage to take it easy today, toots have a great time with your Aunt and Uncle, hugs for everyone for all those aches pains and just because ;) goodluck OJK with the interview today.

    Gryfon what about making Mr G brekkie/brunch in bed for when he wakes up. Or you could make some of these to give him. They are promises of things you can do for him or with him at a future date. HTH
