    Well I will update my first post again with my OCD, but I also stripped the mattress cover, duvet and 2 pillows off the DD'd bed to go in the WM......she has been sleeping without covers in her bed since NY:eek::eek:
    I refused to put them on:cool:

    It is lethal out there I fell woosh on the school run and cracked my bum, elbows and head on the ground :( It really hurt, now dosed up with paracetamol and ibuprofen.

    Done some ironing, loaded DW, emptied WM into TD.

    Not much left to do, keep getting tightenings and pains so off to do the rest and sort out dinner, just in case I go into labour!

    Oh my goodness Ragz, take it steady won't you!

    Rach, hope your ankle isn't causing you too much discomfort and it's good that your boss is understanding - makes such a difference. I remember when we were ttc you had to be so careful what medicines etc you use, so best to be on the safe side.

    DD not at school today but DH has taken DS in to nursery as normal. We're just about to have lunch, then walking the dog and plonk DD in front of a DVD whilst I do some typing work.

    Done most of my levels (think just got the light bulbs to do and clear the desk) but the bathroom looks fab!! I even lifted stuff off the top of the bathroom cabinet and dusted the top and cleaned the windows PLUS (yes there's more) shone all the mirrors in the house. DH says it's lovely I'm turning the house into a home :love: and it's thanks to you guys.

    Quick Question please.

    When something is posted on a certain day such as this...


    Defluff behind the radiators.. and wipe the fronts so they look nice


    does it just relate to the relevant room or the whole house?

    THanks


    AnW's Mum hope you recover soon. Has been snowing all morning but not relay laying on the road etc. Loved going out on the sledge etc.

  • Hope your ok AnW'sMum. I slipped this morning on our road attempting to get in my car so my sympathies are with you

    OK so I totally admire all of you on this thread. I said on Monday that I was interesed in joining FLC and I am definately interested. I am finding it hard to get motivated to start even level one for Monday, let alone Tuesday and Wednesday's. I would love to say i'll start next Monday but I know then that the answer will more than likley I will start next week and so on......

    I work FT as I'm sure a lot of you do. When I get in I always begin with the dinner. This usually involves a lot of stiring and stuff that needs keeping an eye on (this is the truth and not an excuse btw ;) ) Tuesdays I go to college after work so I don't get in until after 8pm so again as DH takes out DSS Tuesday's I fend for myself eating wise.

    The rest of the week is pretty much the same old get in cook dinner, eat it and flop in front of tv, laptop or radio as I struggle to do anything after eating late (DH works 2 hours away so isn't home until after 7)

    So come on, get me motivated and give me a kick up the wotsit and tell me how you guys all manage to be ar§3d :D
    It's nice to be nutty but's more important to be nice

    Well start with a slow cooker, that way dinner will be mostly ready;)
    Then just try to do ONE small thing, then another, then another:D
