    hi
    sorry not been around much the last few days, had a miserable weekend arguing with DH and spent large percentage of it in tears. Things better now but still a bit of tension.
    As its half term I havent had a chance to do any flying or much laptop'ing either, but have some spare time at the minute as LO is asleep and the other two are wathcing telly and doing Aquadraw. The only way for them not to argue is for me to sit with them both. They both obviously have , erm, imminent toilet visits required as they are both guffing away and it REEKS in here :rolleyes::eek:

    Probably wont do much, if any, of a list this week, as I will never achieve what I want to so no point setting myself up for failure as it makes me cross.

    Anyway I am stupdily and OCD'ly reading the thread from last week that I didnt catch up on last week before startng this week's thread. But is very relaxing :D
    Jan GC: £202.65/£450 (as of 4-1-12)
    NSDs: 3
    Walk to school: 2/47
    Bloater challenge: £0/0lbs

    The HHC lasted almost an hour, but all groceries are tidied away and the LR floor is clear again. I also sorted through two cupboards in the kitchen and checked for out-of-date stuff. They can be cleaned on kitchen day.

    Thanks to everyone for this thread - without you I'd have spent the afternoon dozing in front of the telly.

    I think it's time for a cuppa and the 'organised mum' order. More HHCs to follow later.

    Dusty - DS is a bit better, thank you. He still has a lot of pain but it seems to be more intermittent now. The last bad lot was on Sunday evening for 6 hours when he was really bad. We get the results of the camera next Tuesday though I have been told they've found something 'significant' but not life threatening. Hopefully they can put him on some medication and stop this pain.

    S/S clinic and dumped more stuff in DH's study! xx
