Bit slow today but have been ding a little flying since i was last on so thought i would delet of the list to keep me motivated!! I booked a appointment for my hair on sat morning - so not today but its booked (which has taken me ages to get round to!! it REALLY needs it)
I have washed my dressing gowns so one can be popped in labur bag when dry! sorted next load for WM. Made beds, S&S the bathroom, had lunch ordered the pads for my tens and looked on the internet for the quinny buzz - i might get one for when baby is born - i want a nice light stroller for when baby is a bit bigger and like the idea i can also put the carseat on it (would save me washing the old one) has any one got one?? are they any good??

No questions are stoopid! When you are writing the message, highlight the area you want to put a line through, then click of the "S" with a line through it button on the right hand side of the bar above where you are writing the message - the same bar with bold, italics, underline, etc, on. This will put [strike] at both ends of the area you have just highlighted. You can't see the line through (strike) at this stage, but if you preview your message, it will show.
Hope this makes sense! It's difficult writing out the steps your fingers take, when your head doesn't know what it's doing half the time!:rotfl:

Thanks for the explanations on how to put line through things. I love it how everyone is so helpful. :T :T
I am on a roll this week so far. Last night did big pile of ironing as well
Nearly finished todays list but got baby asleep in arms so stuck for a bit .
If i put him down he instantly wakes up ( very anoying ) still it gives me time to catch up on thread.
Also managed to s & s toilet, sink and kitchen.
Bed covered with ironing waiting to be put away

Afternoon all
One load of washing hung up indoors, it's just started raining.
I've done all the living room, hallway and stairs stuff (Toots) My time to myself was watching Corrie.
I've put the rest of the books away and flattened the cardboard boxes and put them in the garage out of the way. We put the leftover carpet up in the loft this morning and got down the lampshade and that's been put up too. Just waiting for the blind man to ring now to say that's ready for fitting and it will be complete.
Little bedroom tidied now the boxes are out and bed made up ready for DS who is coming down for a few days from tomorrow night. I'll dust and vacuum tomorrow when I do all the bedrooms.
Dinner is cooking, off to catch up with the thread.0 -
