  • Hugs to AnW's mum and Miss A and Master W. I would have changed my avatar too but I already have a lovely yellow sunflower. Thinking of you all today. xx

    More hugs for you too Mudbath. x

    I'm already in my pj's. I'll definately have an early night tonight...DD2 decided to wake up at 10.15pm last night and cried on and off until 1.45am, so I'm very tired today. Needless to say she is shattered too. I don't even think there was really anything wrong with her...just being a monkey. So she's gone to bed with threats of mummy taking her teddies if she's silly tonight. She has promised to be good and sleep. We'll see!

    Not much point in posting a list as I've been at work all day and I'm too tired to do anything tonight. But I did do my ironing yesterday and managed to clear the ironing basket completely. :j Unfortunately not much flying will be done next week either. DH has got a week off work cos he's just got lots of holidays to use so I'm going to make the most of it and work pretty much full time. Got to make some money to pay off the vet bill from out poor little puddy cat last week.

    Anyway, off to tuck DD1 into bed.

    xx

    But was soooo worth it. How humble it is to watch a new life coming into this world. An experience as good as actually giving birth 2 my own DDs.

    Brilliant - well done you! I've never witnessed a birth from the bottom end, only the top end and with a lot of grunting and swearing. I've often wondered what it would be like to actually see what was going on! And how thoughtful of you to clean your friend's place. I'm wishing them both much health and happiness xx

    It is very quiet in here.. I have 2 farmed out for the night and the boys are out until after 9 with church club (they've gone to lazer quest) .. I am so glad I had more than 3 children :D:D:D:D

    Tiddles has a nasty sore throat (hence it being quiet in here!!) so was fed watered calpol'd and chucked in her nest.. she is very warm.

    Mimi has barely screamed seeing as DS3 hasn't been here to make her squeal and shriek.

    TD on
    WM half filled.. it is waiting for school bits.

    DS1 didn't get the house he had hoped to get today :( but that must mean there is a better one looking for them!

    Got letter from DSS for the solicitor so I don't have to pay for the divorce :D (apparently KHs solicitor is costing him a fortune.. see my heart bleed?)

    Oh !!!!!!... escaped rabbits!!!

    Cost DH £12k just to get as far as financial dispute resolution hearing :eek:. Mind you cost her the same and she eventually settled for less than what he offered in the first letter pre solicitors :rotfl: .

    Tooch - you wouldn't be if you had to pay the mortgage! Def a case of head ruling heart - and it is a building site inside. Give us another 5 years and it will be lovely.

    DW filled, and downstairs re-hoovered yet again. It would be easier just to hoover the dog.

    Hex, I looked at the inside pics after I posted and did think of the expenese and time (this house(a lot smaller and newer!!) needed gutting and I was impatient) but it will def. be worth it in the end xx
