Thanks for all the positive baby vibes, bump still here though! Will keep trying though, today would be great as SIL is taking the kids out and OH is home. Got to go do food shop (finally) now car is OK, then baby can come!

I am VERY pleased with myself. I decided to fasten the duvet cover in the hope that it would then be prevented from eating pillowcase and turning itself inside out and it worked!

Duh, why did I never think of that... Thanks, will do this in future!

Friday list finished, just didn't get a chance to post yesterday.

Morning all

Piggers have a nice weekend away.

We have had lots of rain overnight but it's positively balmy temperature wise which is nice. I am going to tackle my remaining lists today and go foraging for food this morning. My hairdresser's coming at 1pm so I don't want to be going out in the rain after that!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday - however managed to get very little done.

The lists are written up for today and jobs allocated - just got to do them now. Please wish me luck and I'll report back fully later!!! x

Hi all,

have failed even level ones since wednesday, have had no sleep for days. Little DSs arthritis is really bad since it started raining, and big DS has started a new bout of hourly night fits...they seem to be working in relays!
Got home today and the kitten had got stuck in the boiler! (I suppose it was warm)...took nearly an hour to free it, relight it and block up the hole. Little DS had a random baker day (id forgotten about) so I took him to the park and he sprained his wrist.
The bank still havent sorted out my money from the fraud, and I was depressed and bought a pink spotty kettle on my credit card for no reason at all. DS hates it and wont make me tea.:(
A friend has got little DS tonight and DH doesnt have work tomorrow so he can deal with big DS and hopefully I'll get some sleep.

On the flylady front, I have done...nothing.
I havent even walked the dog since wednesday.
The house is a tip, and we ended up having takeaway tonight because I have been out all day getting little DSs arm xrayed and then taking him out this evening.

Next week I intend to actually complete the level ones, really I do. I think we should have a special "encouragement star" for people who try hard but get defeated by adversity in every direction!
Ive awarded myself this happy pink smilie because I like it! :happylove

Anyway, hugs to everyone that needs one, and smiles and laughter to everyone else,
Skipsmum xx

The rain is hammering off of our windows and has been since last night, but the good news is, its washed all the snow away!!!! Yay!

Same here!

DW emptied, breakfast made & eaten. Need to shower, dress and get out of the house, as I'm going over to see my brother and then get my hair coloured and cut so it'll take all day. I'll probably do a bit of shopping too... including food shopping on my way back as I should be able to get to the farm shop at last!

I'll do a list inspection when i get back and see what needs doing so I can update before the final star count of the week.

Toots - where are you, and are you OK?

Congrats GnB!

well done you

(((Hugs))) Skipsmum

kids off to their dads today - it's lashing down here, too BUT I HAVE TURNED THE HEATING OFF! It's been on 24/7 for weeks, although I don't have it set at a high temp. Back to twice a day while it's milder!

Losing the PC (well effectively) has put me back so I have lots to do.

Oh and I have been on the school website and now know the days for parents evening - some of the staff wanted it moved back and they have won...let's see if anyone thinks to actually TELL me :rolleyes:

Forget the housework - it will still be there tomorrow, have a rest and look after you, huge big squishy hugs for ya hun, have a nice bath, then have a nice little sleep and then have a pampering session for yourself and let DH run around after you today, hope you feel better today, I really feel for you after having such a carp time this week, Helen x
