    I just popped in Carla - I've been cleaning up a storm. My desk's clear, the kitchen's clean(ish) and I celebrated by making an egg and cheese muffin. Mmmm. But now I have to wash the pan :(

    So, boxes flattened, and I have made a deal with someone on a classified ad site to swap the three flat boxes for a can of pumpkin pie mix (mmm). Dishes done except for the new ones, laundry is beeping to be moved into the dryer and the second load put in, hand washing is done. Three boxes have been found behind the computer room door and dealt with, leaving one box for sorting into "crap for the flea market" and "legitimate stuff that needs a place".

    Next things: finish coffee, take cup and plate to kitchen, wash them and the pan, change over the laundry, put in the new load, then ... something else. Perhaps arrange my wardrobe. I dropped a shelf a few levels last night to make room for shorter dresses and now everything is out of order.

    I truly have it bad. Someone come sit on me and force me to stay still. Anyone except the cat, who now will not leave me alone.

    Well I went to tidy the sitting room and ended up doing that and loading the dishwasher, putting a load of washing on, cleaning all the work benches in the kitchen and brushing all the floors :)

    I am done now !! Still have to hoover and tidy Jasmines bedroom, but they can wait till later. Also need to pop to the shop later to get toothpaste, had to use Jasmines last night and today as I didnt realise I didnt have another one (I always have spares) and hers isnt nice :( She likes it, but its bubblegum flavour and its nasty !!!

    Hello ladies and bumps, sorry I havent been on for ages. Its been one of those weeks where I seem to be chasing my tail all the time!
    I seem to have missed lots of new babies so huge congratulations and Rhys has moved cot too, fantastic news that he's doing so well! He truly is a little star Elle, you must be so proud.
    Right, im off to try and catch up a bit more and see what else Ive missed. Ive cycled to the car boot this morning and im shattered now so lying on the sofa catching up is the most strenuous thing Ive got planned, Sugar your making me feel terribly lazy :o

    wow. u make me feel bad SS!! i cant be bothered doing anything right now/ sitting on my bed looking at all the bubba stuff i have bought, and cant decide how much ofeach item to put in the case!!
    I have 12 vests and 6 babygrows, scratch mittens a blanket. i think looking at it wrote down, i should maybe just bring 6 vests and 3 babygrows!? OH can always bring mor up if required. im more a person that packs "just incase" rather than being sorry. nightmare when packing a case for holiday - alway have to pay more baggage allowance!! lol

    im rambling now.....

    thats probably more than enough MM! i jjst panic about things like this!! lol. im silly.
    also, i was in hospital for 4 days with DD -- nothing was wrong with either of us, i was juts too scared to go home to do it all on my own, with no1 to ask what if.!!! thik thats why i think i need so much, but i know i will prob be in and have bubba and then shipped bakc out since its my 2nd!!
    although, thats literally all that i have bought for bubba. with DD i had lotsa stuff in....anyone else bought their soon-to-be bubbas anything more than vests/babygrows/scratch mittens/socks/nappies!???
