    How did you get on AnW'sMum and natty?

    I swapped washing over from WM to TD and reloaded WM. Folded and put away the dry washing, sewed the edges of Miss A's cub badges on and caught up with Robin Hood :)

    Back from an extended HHC, it was only going to be half an hour but it turned into an hour instead..lol

    I managed to do the following:
    • shower/get dressed/do hair,
    • pick up the bits from the bedroom floor that DH had left by his side of the bed and also picked up the doggy toys..
    • Put the rhubarb on to stew, then put in a cold dish once cooked, ready for tonights crumble.
    • Folded up the veg boxes that I seem to be accumulating in the porch as well as throwing away an odd smelling brocolli :eek:
    • Rung DH to discuss a couple of things with him.
    • Checked bank account online and paid over the money to DH that is due to him.
    Now going to do myself an egg salad for lunch, seeing as I nearly forgot the eggs that were slowly simmering on the hob..:eek:

    LL sorry you didn't get the answer you wanted with your tests, keeping fingers crossed that everything goes alright for you. *Hugs*

    Plans have to be altered slightly, LO is not well so have to take her to the doctors. She is roasting hot, listless and complaining of pain in her chest and stomach. She was fine this morning:confused: Got an appointment at 2.40pm for her.
    Just pottering about now til we go, she is snuggled on the couch watching the lion king.

    See you all later

    Always the way...they seem to have some inbuilt radar that just when you decide to do something they wake up crying!

    Baby steps for you this week....dailies and if you have to do something else level one only!!! You are too busy with baby to fit anymore in. Hope all is going well and you're managing to get some sleep. xx


    LL...thinking of you....sending good prognosis and treatment vibes. xx

    GnB...hope its nothing serious for your LO...have you finished your exams or have you still got more to go?

    My LO seems to have gone off this lunchtime. She was fine this morning at toddler group then we popped to a friends to give her DS his birthday present and stayed for a sandwich but then she just went really off...just crying continually and went really hot. Not sure what's the matter with her but she's had a dose of medised and gone to sleep. Think I'll try to sort out for BIL to get DD1 from school at the same time as him getting his two so I can leave her sleeping.

    Not much flying happening here...in a CBA mood and feel like having a little snooze myself! Fortunately the lounge floor isn't too bad as I did a bit of a tidy last night. It could just do with a bit of a clean.
