      Crazy lady! That is the middle of the night:rotfl:


      Morning, its not raining here:j Finally, the weather has been rotten here all week. Have had a couple of cracking thunder storms though:D Need to clean LO's room and put everything back where it should be, it is currently all over the house:rolleyes:

      Valli - everything crossed for you today.
      Pigpen - hope the venison and the chef were all that you want them to be
      Serena - I thought your de-clutter list was great, and I was also was scared by the lists at the time you mention.
      Greenbee - congrats on the jeans! It is such a good feeling.

      Quite sunny here despite the BBC saying heavy rain so I am wondering if we should risk an excursion. Mind you the boys have already had one punch up since we got up at 8, and DS1 is in tears again now so i am not sure it is such a good idea.

      DW is on, off to put all the bedding in the WM and to feed the menagerie.

      and hugs for all those who are ill or suffering with the black dog.

      I dont know about anyone else but my son isnt quite 3 yet and this is my first week at this flying malarky. I dont feel at all pressured into doing any of it but like the support from every one here. You are all a truely lovely bunch :o. If anything it gives me a kick up the butt to do the things that I should be doing but if not its me I am letting down and no-one else.
      (Truth is I am too scared of Toots and Soappie so not doing it is never going to happen :rotfl:)
      Oh I wish I was scared of them, I might actually do more stuff:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
      i know what you mean, it's my first week here as well and i don't feel pressured into doing it at all, my DD is 3.5 yrs and loves to help so if it gets her into a habit as well, it's good for me :D and her as it means she gets a sticker for helping and is one step closer to getting a small treat!!;)

      But you seem to be one of the nutty ones who enjoys doing it:eek::eek::eek: I have watched the way you score stuff off your lists;):mad::p


      My DD seems to have got back into the habit already of leaving stuff lying around:rolleyes:
      Guess the BINBAG will have to come out again:whistle::whistle::whistle:

      Didn't realise how bad your weather had been till I watched the news last night (firefighter's funeral)
      Hope you get a chance to dry out.

      Morning all

      Triker - hope you feel better soon. What's up?
      Well done on your stars Greenbee! Hope you don't have to wait too long at the airport
      JulieJ - hope you feel better soon - as G&B says - don't do too much!
      And Natty and RoseP and everyone else who's feeling under the weather, hope you feel better soon.

      Overcast today with strange yellow clouds which is a shame as the washing's piling up. I'm not sure if I'll get any dry. Off to catchup on the stars
