    You do know the steroids don't actually work don't you? the neonatal paediatric consultant at Leeds told me.. the big top dog professor one!!

    I didn't know that!!! But I so love the boiled lobster look??? Ah well, she is 33 weeks, DS2 was 33 weeks and he was 5lb12oz so I'm not worried. Both the boys were in SCBU so it's all old hat to me :D

    I just need to get my cervix all softened and get her to engage a little or they won't be happy about an induction and I so don't want a section (but I will if I have too).

    I did my little list :D Just to sort out the paperwork pile(s). Will get DH to mop the floor tomorrow I think, my hips and back are starting to get all painful now so just going to be a wee lazy.

    Hi Ladies,

    Thanks for all your lovely comments about the staircase - small staircase for my Barbie House :D. Well I couldn't throw out the twigs, I got OH to do it instead, I ran out into the garden to try and stop him but there he was, happily breaking them up for the bin :eek:. Under the stairs now looks lovely, but perhaps a wee bit bland as Toots (I think) said! Not much else done, I am adopting the Dot to Dot strategy and the rest of the LR will be done soon.

    My 5 Things List:

    1. Sort through suitcase
    2. [STRIKE]Buy holdall[/STRIKE] Bought a lovely pink girlie one!
    3. [STRIKE]Put table in loft[/STRIKE]
    4. Find more clothes for charity
    5. Have some Me Time!

    Can I have another smillie please? Well off to bed now, I am pooped, hugs to everyone xx

    well I am so pleased that i amanged to catch up before bedtime today!!!
    I had my outing with my CSW today but i was struggling as I had terrible double vision and was generally weak - maybe i shouldnt have gone but really wanted to get out.

    Toots, sorry for cropping your post so much but I just wanted to ask if you've been referred to a hospital eye clinic for your double vision? I know you are probably snowed under with appointments but someone maybe able to make things more comfy for you... I'll send you a pm...3tabbys x

    I have read up to here since I got back from my meetings (while eating my supper - a kind of spanish omeletter with masses of veggies held together by a few bits of egg), but can't remember everything I wanted to say!

    I'm 3500 steps short and it's already 10.30 :eek:. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to make them up :o. I've got the next batch of wedding cake to mix up, so I might go for a quick walk round the block, and then get some inside stuff done while the chocolate melts.

    I have to leave either here or the gym at 9am tomorrow to get to the conference on time, and I know I won't have a huge amount of time to get my steps done then either...

    Rach - the job is in Basel (which I don't know at all, although I have friends in Geneva), and German is on the 'desired' list for the role. However, I can suggest that they put me into language school for an intensive refresher before I start if I really need it! I'm certainly going to contact the recruiter to discuss it further, as I need to look at everything I can - and anything that headhunters present is well worth considering. Glad the new job is going well.

    Triker - I'm pleased to see you didn't have to manage long without the remoska!

    Right... off out for a quick walk round the block, and then I'll see whether I can get to bed before I have to get up again ;)
