    CDSmiler - I see you've been absent for a few days, hopefully little one is on the way/here - best of luck to you both if so.

    I had awful tummy bug yesterday, gave me terrible contractions which hurt like hell, had my midwife apt and she thought I may be in labour but luckily I wasn't - yet. Have a feeling this baby may not stay in for the full 6 weeks though, head is right down as far as it will go (rather uncomfortable!).

    Hopefully won't happen in the next few days though as we're very snowed in, had over 6 inches of snow in the night so OH stuck at home and no one around here seems to be going anywhere.

    Had parcels at the sorting office for days now, really want them :( but no way they'll be open today.

    Rather dissapointed as it was meant to be the boys' preschool xmas thing today (I even baked fairy cakes lol) but they are closed so no Santa or singing or raffle today :(

    Hope everyone is ok.

    Mum2one congrats on passing your course!

    Hello all :j
    Been snowing here all day and looks like my trip to see my son and grandkids this weekend is very doubtful:rolleyes:
    Young girl who cleans for me said she'll take me on Monday (weather permitting) if I don't get down there. Means I won't see the older grandkids or my son as he'll be working -still, it'll get the santa drop done.
    Failing that they'll have to wait till sometime in the New Year.
    Thinking next year I'll send cheques in the post for them all and save the hassle of all this................:rotfl:
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !
