    I think I am going to have a bath or maybe a shower, wasn't sure if I could be bothered but think I'll be glad I did in the morning when I can have an extra 15 mins in bed!

    Thanks for all the congrats for DH, makes it feel worthwhile that i've done more of the household stuff whilst he's been studying! i knew he'd pass but to pass so well is great.

    flying for me is now going to be done on Sat this week and will be a catch up job!

    I'm having an amusing evening. I keep telling DH to double check he's cancelled all our old credit cards to be told 'I have, I have'. Anyway, he's just gone through his files to find that he's not cancelled about 7!!! He's currently phoning round them all to cancel them as they have nothing on them (apart from the one that £19 in credit?!?!). They'll all offering him deals to stay and he's loving saying no!!! I just hope that perfect deal isn't offered that would find him saying yes - I can just see him buying a caravan on an interest free credit card after i've paid the last one off!!! Nooooooooooo!!!!

    Flying done - cutting up of many credit cards!!! xx

    Anyway managed to stay until the end despite being told to go home because I looked dreadful by some class members :o. Main thing is I've lost 1 1/2 lbs so pleased about that.

    Pigpen ooooh it's happening hun, ickle baby time, much 'easy birth' vibes being sent to your sister.

    YAY!! Well done on the 1.5lb.. it's all in the right direction.. and I think it is mean they sent you home!

    Just text BIL for a sister update.. bless her she's having a right long haul of it.. and it is so exhausting and demoralising when nothing is happening quickly.. can we have some.. ~~~~baby out quick vibes~~~~???

    Come on Floss I need a cuddle... (and no doubt a blubber all over my sis and the baby.. and probably BIL too.. I am SO wet!)

    Mudbath. if they offer you a decent cashback card you could make money from them ;) my DPs going to keep 1 or 2 of his for big purchases and when we're away. He's been told to put them on 'clear balance' every month and I will account for what he spends as if it was using the cashcard. Oh and definately don't buy a caravan on a CC as that means you're buying it from a dealer, for a cheaper caravan you will get your eyes clawed out, go private!!

    Triker well done

    Pigpen oodles of 'baby get out your time is now' vibes on the way!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Rosepink - thanks. NN is coming here tomorrow night for our usual Friday night gin and gossip session. I'll put it to her that we need to contact the GP etc.
    Mudders - well done OH and you on the cutting up of credit cards!
    Piggers - sending out the strongest "come on baby - time you were born, healthy and raring to go with least exhaustion for your Mum" vibes...

    Well, lemon chicken cooked and eaten. And washing up done. But I'm still hungry. I was too noble. DiL came home from work just as I was about to serve up. She sniffed the air and said it smelt divine. Having only thought it would be just me and DS home for dinner, I ended up spreading out the two good portions to two medium portions and one small portion. Guess who got the small portion :rolleyes: But, it can only do my waistline good.

    Off to do a final S&S of the kitchen and then bed.

    Night night all
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
