I needed to keep busy, makes time go quicker! Plus I thought I'd never go into labour if I was sitting around doing nothing! Have taken a break from Flylady though, just been doing the basics. But despite a nice walk this morning and last night's full moon, still no sign of baby coming...Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

well I attacked under the sofa (bloody corner groups are not easy to move around or lift when 9 months preggers :rotfl:) kinda got a bit keen too and removed all the covers, hoovered under the cushions, febreezed them, rotated the cushions.....wiped down the walls (damn cream walls with 2 kids!) wiped down the skirting, cleaned the coffee table, had a move around and dusted the glass shelving unit. Still want to do my computer desk-big sort out needed with paperwork
Oh and I have a new job too, text received from OH to ask me to link the wii to bbc i player, sod knows how i'm going to that :rotfl:2010 resolutions1- get my 5yo DD dry daytime, with enuresis help dry since 12th Jan so far!

Eeeeek ! With these babies due, it's like the pregnancy thread here. It better not be catching!:eek: I had a dream the other night I was pregnant, told DH about it and we laughed a bit, but then SIL came over that same day and said she had a dream that I was pregnant. Since she always seems to be right on that front (predicted exactly when I was going to be pregnant months prior for both DS2 & DS3), we're a little nervous now. :rotfl:
Best of luck to those expecting. I'm just sitting here miserable with a rotten cold, sniffling and sneezing.MSE mum of DS(7), and DS(4) (and 2 adult DCs as well!)DFW Long haul supporters No 210:snow_grin Christmas 2013 is coming soon!!! :xmastree:0 -
