SSsupergirl what size feet is she??

Morning Toots

She's a size 1.

Thanks again everyone. It means so much to have everyone's hugs and good wishes, and I really need them at the moment. OH's coming out of work early to come with me to the hosp this afternoon. SO that'll help. She gets SO upset - to the point of hysteria - about blood tests.

See you all later. Hopefully I'll actually get some cleaning done today. Not just my S&Ss.
:wave:

morning :hello:

oh my, another bad night! ds had me up at 1am with a nightmare?! he crawled into my bed and oh boy, he was hot! so we had a big cuddle and then i dropped him back into his own bed (he sleeps better there) dosed up with medicine - that got him through the night!
but dd came at 5.30 she couldn't sleep?!? so she tossed and turned next to me untill 6am when i threw her out and sent her downstairs ...

so ds will stay home (my 1 childfree day out of 2 )

and oh and i are getting quite down again now
we hoped that new estate agent would make a difference and we put some hope into it (we should know better!!) - we are just completly annoyed with them already (after only 1 week :eek: ) - oh well, you never know ... miracles happen!


i also started a food diary because i am getting nowhere with loosing weight - maybe that'll help ...


so, i better go and find todays list or nothing will get done

MIL seems to regard housework as something novel that happens to other people, and frequently watches my nightly floorsweeping routine with the air of one watching a wildlife programme.

with her feet on my couch.

that had me laughing. i've got this picture in my head now here sitting on the couch with a dictaphone, whispering '... and here we can see the very rare species using a tool to actually sweep the floor ... we will follow her and investigate further .... '

like in the big cat diary :rotfl:

Morning All

Hugs

Anw'smum not cleaning the windows is not an option as they seem to appear on pigpen's list on a regular basis, at the weekend I cleaned outside down stairs as well! Hope the new screen is working well.

SS I hope all turns out ok and your little one calms down, maybe suggest a treat to her once the tests have been done, if she is a good girl? such as the park or she gets to pick tea/ dinner tonight for you all/ fav book to be read to her at bed time/ small toy or similar bought for her. (I know I don't have kids so please don't all yell at me if my suggestions are way off the mark)

I am waiting in for a 8am to 6pm delivery (my new phone) so I have brought work home from the office to do, sort of hopeing it comes early morning, but knowing my luck it will be 5.55pm tonight!!

If I get all work done, I might have a go at the list for today.

Take care

Hi everyone! Didn't make it on yesterday as I had to fight various family members for the PC. Hope everyone's getting on well and enjoying themselves! Best wishes to those who are still feeling under the weather.... hope to report back later with some more crossings out!

Well, there's still time to earn the star! _party_

Gonna finish the kitchen list now so that's another one done then I can concentrate on yesterdays and today's lists later on, got an hours break inbetween jobs today so may do a bit more then, or I may just have me dinner and surf the net - which is more likely See you in 3.

TOOTS! DONE!

I also washed the dishes in the sink instead of putting them in the DW (there was only a few) and S&S'd the kitchen - go me!

Work in 10 mins - that'll spoil my momentum *sigh* it always gets in the way

Morning all

SS - hugs for you and your DD and positive 'not sore' vibes for blood tests. Trouble is we don't like them but know why they are necessary, but you can't explain that to a tiny one.

Emily - enjoy your weekend away

AnW'sMum - glad you are enjoying your new screen (and thanks you have nudged me to take my second one in to see if it can be repaired)
