    Hmm well I did a bit more hanging up of the washing but then felt like I was going to be horribly sick so I've sat down again. DD2 is asleep upstairs and I have the two big children to pick up at 1pm, I'll have to walk down as the whole school is out at the same time so it gets rather crowded with cars. Feel pants though :(

    g&b hope your Mum is ok
    pigpen, think I'd be starting him on adults style ones tbh, Buffy/similar might be a bit young for him, saying that DP likes those.
    Moam and soappie, thank you!
    Gryfon hope you feel better soon
    soappie, my Luke is a springer/lab cross and he has a thing about destuffing cushions, but the last year has been good, I might even try to get him a new bed.
    Summermoon I bet you can't wait to get to work, bless ya, not easy when they're being clingy and moaning
    PF honey if that's a stress headache, that might be why the tablets aren't working, have you got some aromatherapy stuff handy? I use Bachs a lot, sometimes Kalms. Great news with the fridge!

    Right, well kitchen much progress inc 2 cupboards sorted, DP awake but not surfaced, dealt with his phone problem was sent back as was new when went for software reflash and they damaged it, they are now fixing it, free! The downside is it will be fixed and back at the Metro Centre, next Monday, bleurgh, got to go there again!

    DP tried again asking if I want to goto WILs for dinner on Xmas day, which part of p*** off does he not understand!!! Trying to talk him into taking the boys over there while I am at the funeral Xmas eve, we have to goto his Dad's xmas day, promised already, don't really want to go around the world and back again like always happens!

    Going to do another HHC 12-12.30 then lunch I think, DS2s performance starts at 2pm so need to fit in what I can, especially noisy stuff, before then
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    lil_me, I'll join you for 15 mins, going to attempt to do the dishwasher and hang up the load of washing that's just finished. Then I need to get ready to get the children from school.

    Ok one load of washing hung up finally! Still feel sick though so might attempt the dishwasher and not worry if I don't finish. Fed up as firstly it was headaches which I sorted, then back problems which I'm getting sorted and now illness on and off! I just want to be able to jump out of bed in the morning and feel perky for once!
