Hello everyone :beer: I've come for sympathy, as DH measured DS yesterday, and I'm now officially the smallest in my family :sad: :embarasse I asked DH if we could have another baby, so that there's someone smaller again, and he said no :huh:

New shoes... it's the only solution :D

Strangely, when we went out as a family yesterday I intinctively reached for the heeled boots that I haven't worn since last year - only realised what I'd done when DS complained that it was cheating :rotfl:

Mine is people just reading what's on the slides... they could have just given me the bit of paper and I could have done it myself in 5 minutes! It's well known that people can't read and listen at the same time, so pics are best, or short notes to back up what you're saying. Get some audience participation too if possible. So it's not death by powerpoint...
..

I never saw the point of that, but it was surprising how many people (senior to and paid more than me) did it regularly at meetings.

:rotfl::rotfl:That's a great reason to have another baby!

Mummyof5 I hope your sinus pain goes, that’s evil that is

Hugs Jjef, hope things get easier soon

Diva glad to hear the good news about Tris and Michelle. How are you?

Dorastar, ouch that sounds awful, hope your little boy is ok today

I slept until 11:00 today :eek: DH left at about 7 and left the heater on so I was boiling when I got up and had to open the window!

Feeling really groggy and headachey, so trying to drink lots of water. Antib's are still upsetting my tummy, I wondered earlier if I was ever going to be able to get off the loo again! Sorry if TMI.

DH is on his way home now, so I'm going to go and lie down and read my book til he gets back.

See you all later, love and hugs to all especially Lady Liberty, Toots and Diva

Freezer inventory done and freezer tidied. Mealplan tweaked. Shopping list made but CBA to go shopping on a Sunday

Kettle is descaling.

I'm going to run the hoover round downstairs, then have lunch and hopefully summon up the energy to walk to the village shop, in the hope that I can then put off any other kind of shopping for a few more days...

Dorastar

Well might get something done today - Adam has finally started moving his arm just a little bit (whist complaining loudly) but will only move it when we aren't in the room! So best get on with cleaning and stuff whilst watching him secretly through the half open door
