    potty - I normally have reflexology fortnightly, to help with hormone problems (and stress all last year due to restructuring/redundancy/new job), but have missed a couple of sessions due to the weather. It's interesting to see the effect of the change in my diet. All the broccoli is working miracles :D
    I used to go once a month... but haven't been for a couple of months... but I surely do know about it now :(
    [FONT=&quot]Flyladies I think I am trying to do too much so will do levels 1 and possibly 2 for the rest of the week, I am just getting myself all wound up and find myself tutting or sighing whenever even a drip of coffee appears or the dogs wag mucky tails against the hall walls..........[/FONT]

    Dont be getting stressed over it...Just do what you can... :)
    I am glad you feel better after the exercise of snow shovelling...
    But it is a catch 22 situation eh ?...
    You feel bad for not doing what you think is enough, and so much better for achieving something else completely :rotfl::rotfl:
    I am sure it will all work out in the end ;)

    JulieJ - congrats on your DS swimming test. And it's good he wants to carry on. Having lived near the sea since my children were very small, I've always thought it's extremely important for children to know how to swim - OK they may not be Olympic stars, but as long as they have the strength to plod their way through water to a safe place, that's what matters.

    They can both swim a length and tread water so for 6 & 8 I think that's pretty good considering when the children at school go swimming for a lot of them it's the first time they've been at 9 and some still can't swim at 11 when they leave.

    I just need to do the floor in the kitchen now for my star but I don't think that'll get done tonight. The floor in the LR still needs decluttering but I think that will have to wait for tomorrow as well.

    Hope all those who have fallen today are not too bad - and mudders, hope you sleep well and well done to the good samaratin who took you to hospital.

    AnW's Thanks so much, hope your fall wasn't on the way to the P.O. or I would be mortified,:eek: let me know what P & P is and we can get something arranged :T

    You all prob never saw my post late last night about what a KH my boss was being but long story short, I managed to talk him into giving me the day off tomorrow and Friday as DS (2) is getting his SF jab tomorrow and I think it should be his mum that takes him to it.

    I have also done some of Wednesdays list but will update that tomorrow, have washed DD floor, hall, bathroom, kitchen and LR so should keep me going for a while :D Hope you are all well, am gonna get an early night tonight after only 5 hours sleep the past few nights.

  • Sorry this is so long - this is several days worth, but I've caught up wth you all! Yay! Not posting my list until a day is done

    Helen I’m glad you hubby is ok now

    Leed well done on going to the gym! Sounds like the dog is helping you by eating all your biscuits so you can’t! LOL!

    Love and hugs Diva and Lady Liberty

    Jo I’m glad LO is better and hope you were able to get some rest xx

    Serena I hope the court case goes well

    Ragz – could your OH sign on while he can’t go to work? DH had to give in and do that and it’s made us much less stressed about him not being able to work because of the snow. We hated the thought of it, and it was a hard decision but so pleased now that we have. Have those twinges turned into a baby yet? Hope all is well xx

    Savealot I hope your back is better soon and you have heating again soon

    Rach sorry about your ankle, take care sweetie xx

    Welcome Bargainbid and Helzbelz

    Mumof2 I can relate to you feeling invisible – I get a bit paranoid and oversensitive because of my depression too, sometimes I spend ages trying to work out if I’m reading people right or if it’s just cos I’m depressed!

    Hugs Embb hope you got the money sorted xx

    Wooohooo Valli has a date! Oooh arrr! Pub quiz sounds like an excellent idea!

    Hugs 1 Step, hope you are less tired and fed up soon

    JillD I hope your headache is better now

    Hugs Dorastar babysteps remember

    Turkolina I don’t know how you read that poem, it had me in tears and I didn’t even know your mum. You are a very brave lady and my thoughts and prayers are with you

    Summer I hope you are feeling a bit better today, big hugs sweetie. I’m struggling too, it’s so dark all the time! I'm making extra effort to have my light box on more to keep me going

    AnW’s, Nuttyrockeress, Jo, and Mudbath, I hope you are ok after your fall xx

    Melspur I hope your LO is better soon

    Sarah, how wonderful to see you!

    Miss H how great about finding the money to pay for your strings!

    Carol I hope your head is better soon

    Hugs Sexy what a stupid school you work at

    DH has done some work on his tax return and accounts – I printed out the PMs from MOAM and Julie and when I woke up from my nap he was sitting there muttering away under his breath writing things down and sorting through receipts! It was so funny! It was like when a child does pretend whispering! He also put my pillows in front of th heater so they would dry this morning (and he thought of it all by himself!) and he’s cooked dinner.

    I’ve finished and photographed several items today, listed two on Etsy and one on Ebay, done some of my accounts, done some promotional work and reordering of stuff needed, washed up and done general tidying. I’ve also deleted or filed about a million emails!

    We really have to go out tomorrow to get food even if the road is icy still. We are running out of essentials. The main roads should be fine, it's just getting out of our road that's the problem.

    I can't believe its 10.10pm! I don't know where the day has gone, I really don't!!! I haven't done much off my list today, hope for a better flying day tomorrow. On the plus side - I did get my new hoover I ordered Dyson DC24, so all floors are done! Will catch up tomorrow, good luck and hugs to everyone who needs them! - Kalojac xx
