Doing well - nothing done on Monday's list but doing well

Since last post:

Bin and recycling sorted for collection - will probably be all over the street before long but hey ho...
Loo, sink and bathroom shelf defugged - now I know it's not bathroom day but they just HAD to be done, no ifs, no buts...
Tea made - at Thrifty's Kitchen today we have - spaghetti bolognaise with no mushrooms for dd; vegetarian spag bol for ds and ordinary spag bol for Mr & Mrs Thrifty - why can't life be simple????
Dishes done after cooking adventure

Off to work out rejuggling of finances before heading out to bank. The front room and ironing may get tackled today but not holding my breath :rolleyes:

No progress on the flying :rolleyes: but electrician and landscaper have both been. Demolition work will start as soon as the asbestos licence arrives, so have to empty the garage this afternoon (there's no light in there now as the electricity has been disconnected. Will hopefully get it done between now and 2pm (and I need to have lunch too!)

carlsbergal hugs babe

dont worry
my daughter did a similar thing 2 years ago well 3 now cos macie is coming up to 2yrs

firstly
she needs support and will feel so relieved that you know
she must have felt really bad with the burden on her shoulders
she can defer with uni and pick up next year if need be (nursery at uni an option)
she may want to move to a uni closer to home
it has happened now and not much can be done to turn the clock back

sit down and write down the options good and bad
then rule out any options which arent realistic options

then plan out the realistic options and work out which is best
try not to take over the decision making but give loads of support and hugs- dd will have to live with it whatever so it must be her decision in the end

i was devastated when i got told i was going to be a gran....but before you know it if thats what you decide between you ...you will be looking at baby clothes

when it sinks in you WILL feel better...her life and studies are not ruined..but will just happen differently now...

take some time to get used to it yourself...and you will be in a better frame of mind to help with some decisions

she needs you right now whatever she choses - a termination is traumatic but having a baby is a life long thing...

^^^^wot she said - put so much better than I ever could!

((Hugs Carlsberg))) Stay strong!

Afternoon everyone

Carlsberggal - lots of hugs for you and your DD, I've got nothing new to add but the advice you've had so far is great! You know we are all here for you if you need us.

Right have been to uni, handed in the essay, arranged to ring a friend this afternoon, decluttered a pitta bread and some houmous for lunch, bought dinner, and put away some things in the kitchen.

Going to write a resume, do a german comprehension and then go to the gym.

Wilf nope I haven't wet the bed:rotfl:, I tend to do what I can when it floats into my head, kind of do my own lists.:D

Rosepink, back to work tomorrow on a phased return ta for asking hun. By the sounds of it I won't 'properly' be back to work until after christmas which suits me fine.;)
