    Afternoon all

    Lovely day today, one load of washing done which included one of the throws from the living room to make up the load. Got to do washing on a day like this!

    I did the bathroom/toilet this morning as I promised. I've got four stars but I'm not sure what they're for any more - my fault for changing the days round. Assuming tomorrow is main bedroom day, I have done everything this week and will just be doing general stuff downstairs tomorrow. Hope you can make sense of this Toots!

    My DDs are currently driving up to stay with DS at the moment so I'm on pins about them travelling. I am a bad traveller and I tend to put my fears onto them, which I must try to stop. They aren't worried at all.....but every time the phone goes I think it's going to be bad news.

    Off to catch up.

    Hope everyone's OK.

    Mudbath - all the best for your Dad
    Toots - good luck with this afternoon.

    Hi,
    Hope everyone's okay & Happy St George's Day :j:beer::dance:_party_
    Mudbath-feel free to send me a pm
    Rosepink-I'm okay, thanks for asking, but DH is not too good :( He normally goes for dialysis at our local hospital, but they're worried about him, so they've sent him to another, bigger hosptial where's there's more doctors who can keep an eye on him. We've done most of the decorating in the bungalow, but have still got to do the kitchen & bathroom, as well as other odd jobs. But we're very pleased with it :j

    Abbie do try and rest, you need it.How many weeks are you?

    I am just about to hit the 12 week point Moonflower. I was watching something on tv recently about the early stages of pregnancy. You feel a bit of a fraud because you are not really showing yet but you can feel really groggy a lot of the time. I got all hormonal earlier, because I could not get my jeans on this morning :cry::cry: I think I must be a nightmare to live with at the moment!

    On a postive note, I have got a scan coming up which we are really really excited about, and hopefully the nausea might ease a bit as the weeks go on. xx

    My washing is almost dry so I think I'll be cutting the grass again this afternoon (it's easier if I take the rotary out rather than try cutting round it). The grass is almost visibly growing at the moment.
