    MOAM good luck with your NCT sale - hope the organising is going well
    pollybear You ARE a part of the community :A - it doesnt matter if people do the lists in a different order or do their own -the important thing is that we are all trying to do housework on a regular basis and make our lives more organised and less stressful!!! How's old woofy??
    Ladybird hope the new kitchen is progressing - what a difference when you get it finished - dont be getting too stressed - it will all come together.
    twinmummy Belated Happy Birthday - glad you were spoilt!!!:T
    theskintfamily ((hugs for you)) dont be stressed honey - try to do a little each day - babysteps remember -and post what you have done not the f**lures - only the successes.
    soappie hope you have got over your 'bug' - its not like you to be poorly
    jayjay hope Dh survived and enjoyed his 1st day in new place - is he travelling every day ? he will be tired by the end of the week.
    kassey Congratulations of becoming a step-nan how lovely - welcome to the world baby Emily - a good birth weight - hope Mum Dad and baby are all fine.
    LadyL OMG doesnt time fly - I know you are desperate to get flying again but be very careful -remember how Mudbath got carried away and overdid it? Build it up gradually.
    mummy2mygirls are you still with us or have you gone into labour?
    witchypoo just take it slowly - you will get there - dont try to do all the catch up at once or you will make yourself ill again. Hope you are feeling better each day.
    aimme someone has maybe already mentioned this but just in case not-make an evening job of laying out everything for the next day - for everybody- get the children into the habit if doing their own- hopefully then you wont have a repeat of the football kit scenario. It only takes minutes before their bedtime and saves a lot of hassle in the morning - its a great little routine to help getting organised.
    flybabybunting good to see you posting again- PROD!!!!! hope you are managing to do the lists - you know it works! Will be checking up on your progress this week! You have a very busy 'dalies' list and with 2 LO's its not always easy to achieve a lot more so dont be hard on yourself - babysteps over this next 2 weeks will make a huge difference.
    MOF77 hope DD had a good appt at docs and got some help again - what a shame as her skin was doing so well with the new regime. And poor DS3 - hope his legs are better. Do you have freecycle in NI - could you see if there was a WM available - would be handy as a back up? I am pleased Gran is home - hope she is improving and the pain is easing.
    Mudbath hope the kiddliewinks have got over their sickness.

    Thats the first catch ups done - back again later for an HHC
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last
