    Did my two mile run this morning at 6.30am. I have now been running 4 days out of 5 so I deserve a day off tomorrow I think! Had a much more organized morning though as I was up so early. Even managed to de nit myself (found a few crawlers urgh!...thanks DD1). So will de nit DD1 again tonight...did her last night too. Gonna get rid of those little blighters if it kills me! Thanks to everyone who has recommeded the nitty gritty comb in recent months. I have now got one and it is really good.

    Positive news about your Dad Mudbath...hopefully he'll continue to improve.

    Abbie...about worrying baby getting nutrients...I think you mentioned there was a time of day sometimes when you didn't feel quite so sick. Could you take a suitable multi vitamin at that time? Might make you stress less about the baby getting what it needs. Have a chat to your midwife and see if she thinks its a good idea.

    The list:
    Monday - Kitchen and dining room
    Degunge the fridge!
    Terrible Tuesday ~ Master bedroom and Landing
    Level One

    strip the bedding and get it washed.. air the duvet...Not doing today as it only got done on friday.
    Mattress vacuumed turned vacuumed other side and redress bed
    Wipe all the doors and frames upstairs
    Dust and deweb.. inc bed frame!!
    To do this week:
    Phone nurseries to see about place in January for DD2 Appointment made for Tuesday to look around one of them.
    Phone tax credits
    Sort out car insurance
    filing


    Wednesday Wonders ~ Cruddy Study & Bathrooms
    Wash windows


    School run time now...see you all later.
  • Pigpen - what are your nails like now? Are they acrylics or real? I just had blue glitter chevrons done this week.
