    Am so pleased its the kiddiwinkles' rooms today - I hadnt read the update this morning and have earlier decided to strip all their beds anyway as they needed doing :T

    Gorgoues here today again though very cold this morning, almost freezing I think :eek: It was all wooly hats and gloves for school today!

    Had a busy morning so far, done the usual morning breakfast and school run, and then drove to next town to do a mystery shop with DD2. It was in a nice food shop (not just any ordinary food shop LOL) but I was very restrained and spent my £10 min spend on things like bread milk and onions. Also bought some chocolate and scoffed a load - tut tut - but it made me feel really sick - serves me right - and obv blood sugar has gone mad as I feel terrible now :o but going to try and have egg on toast for lunch and see if that evens things out a bit. Did a trip to the bank then came home and been pottering at home since then.

    Need to go and change DD2 smelly nappy :eek:

    Toots - 2 stars please when you have chance

    Also have spent several hours in Room of Doom - binbag full of shredding went out yesterday and another one has just followed PLUS 2 bin bags of recycling. I must have kept every piece of paper I've touched for the last 10 years!!! Where does it all come from? Going to empty the room as much as I can today so that I can reorganise (deluded fool I am) where things are kept. I can at least sit at the table in there when I am going through all the paperwork (OK, so I have to climb over everything to get there, but it's a start)

    Good luck to everyone with their flying today

    AnWsMum Thank you.....I've just skimmed through & seen I am subject for a visualisation tonight :A

    I haven't been posting because I'm sure you are all fed up with me moaning by now.....but all of you on FB will know I have been really suffering the last few days, I can't sleep or eat & find myself in tears all the time, partly due to the pain & partly pure frustration at the way things are turning out......so a huge thanks to you all for taking the time to think of me :A

    My continued love & thoughts are with toots & Mudders you know where I am (((hugs))) xx

    We seemed to have a huge collection of bottles by the bathroom sink, so I've decluttered them into cupboards or to where they belong. And while I was at I gave the sink a good clean. So that's one less thing for bathroom day!

    Have stripped the bed and flipped the mattress as I seem to have had a lump under me, and got the new sheets out ready to put on. I was flagging a bit so have stopped and stuffed my face with leftovers from last night's dinner!

    Need to remake the bed and get some washing on now
