Mudbath

I love that toots!
Toochoosey - you should be so pleased with your living room it looks fabulous.

Thanks everyone for your birthday wishes for DS. He's had a great time. We've had lots of fun playing ned's head if anyone ever sees it - I wouldn't pay full price for it £19.99 (but then I don't pay full price for anything!) but I got it half price and it's well worth it for silliness and fun.

We're having a birthday day out tomorrow though he was limited at what he could do due to me. Anyway, he's chosen to go into town on a bus and spend his book tokens then go to pizza express. Should be fun.

Whoever said I was overdoing it with walking to the shops as well as dog walk was right! Shattered but i'll sleep well! xx

I'm going to be good now toots. I think I'd had a few quiet days and felt fab so thought I could do more.

Lady liberty - remember not to do nearly two hours walking at four weeks post op. I'm only doing these things to help LL know what she can and can't do:rotfl: :rotfl: xx

evening :hello:


after spending so much time on the playroom i made the kids pick up the toys once they've finished playing with them - they didn't like that
please kick me to persevere with it!!!!

Good for you! I make my 2 DSs pick up their toys, tidy their bricks and jigsaws away etc, they are very good about doing it but I do help to start them off or their attention would wander. They are only 2 and a half years and 17 months though :rolleyes:
Start 'em young!
