    Not having time to post a lot at the moment as am trying to do some decluttering.....such hard work especially in the boys room:eek:

    Today OH put moses basket in attic and got the walker down for baby D..cant believe she is 6 months already...all she does is smile constantly and talk about giggle...really cute...

    he also did some work on car as water has been getting in through the windscreen..he was driving with his feet in a lake:) not sure if it is fixed until it rains again....while outside he took the xmas lights down and binned them...at last :eek: half of them werent working so got new ones in the sale

    Need to save some money up as Computer chair in LR has broken...DD needs a new chest of drawers and DS1 is desperate for a mattress...totally ruined due to all the grease and even has a couple of holes in it :eek::eek::eek:

    Love and hugs to all especially Toots and Lady liberty xx

    For the first time I'm seriously worried, as my kitchen is so sparkling I don't know if it could take another clean :rotfl:. I'm still joining in though, it will keep it gleaming until the following week.
    You see... it's working... that's what happens eventually :D which is why some of us can do the whole house on a saturday morning (or in Valli & embb's case, on a Thursday)

    Can I join you guys in the pedometer (sp?) challenge? Can you buy them in ASDA??
    Feel free... I don't know whether you can get them in Asda, but outdoor shops have them, and I know sainsbury's had them in the sale after christmas. Dusty also put a link to a nectar offer for fitbug on last week's thread...

    can I have some *things going better* vibes Tuesday pm plizz?

    Peace, rest and energy Vibes for Lady Liberty & Toots (esp energy with that listy) and no more lymes attacks for Triker

    Hope baby ragz arrives safe and sound soon and I'm not PG *phew* would be the longest gestation period in history if I were....
    What's happening Tuesday pm? Another date? Or a second date? :D:D

    ... and I'm not PG either... it would be nearly as long a gestation period as Valli's if I were :p

    Well I'd meant to have an early night... but ended up trying to get a bit of work done, and a colleague was on IM... so ended up chatting... but I think I've broken the back of the next bit of work and HOPE that I'll have time tomorrow (assuming I get up early enough) to get a rough draft ready for a couple of people to look at...

    :xmastree:Ok, back in and will try my best to post and do this week. I have fallen a bit behind in clothes washing as i mucked out the dining room instead, and by the end of the next meal no-one was any the wiser. Same with playroom. Did that Friday and it looks like a bomb went off again. At least i know all the yuck underneath disappeared. The chair DS2 sits on and underneath his chair were :eek: with a mix of weetabix, spag bol and jelly, and that was just one day. I really need to keep under him clean as the slightest but missed is then really difficult to get up. Roll on when he no longer resembles a chimp at a tea party when he eats. :D

    I hope to catch up with you all a lot better this week too. I've been spending a lot more time on MSE in the past few weeks, and i need to get back to the OS boards to help me cut spends a bit.

    Love to you all xx

    Evening all

    Last post from us was Weds of last week! Had The Godfather here as you know, had a great time and W had loads of lego for his birthday.

    I left you last back on page 35 of the old thread :eek: I shall skim that but a little bird told me there are birthday wishes for W on there so I shall make sure he sees them.

    Need to get some more dot2dotting done this week, going to skim for a wee while now and then off to bed. Catch you all on the morrow xx

    welcome to GrannyKnits - yes posting a liost has this strange way of making you do housework:rotfl: ther's a pm on its way to you

    BenW sorry to confuse you - we dont normally post other stuff on the tootifruities posts other than that the stars are done so we know where we are - but we were both signed in under the same name tonight to wait for the new thread - i am not quick enough to grab post 3 so soappie usually gets it for us.

    I'm in again. Thanks the Fab 3 for your unflagging enthusiasm! Thanks for the easy start - I can manage the kitchen as long as you don't ask me to clean out the cupboards! Ooops I probly shouldn't have said that....

    Michelle - I had a couple of plastic/oilcloth sheets I put under the highchair which stopped all the crapola sticking to the floor and staining it.
