    Morning my lovelies! :wave:

    Sorry I missed yesterday, my cousin is coming to stay, so we had to re-decorate DS's room! I know it seems a bit drastic, but flybaby had found a gap in the wallpaper and just couldn't resist tearing off as much of the entire strip as possible :mad:

    When we decorated, we had a good de-gunge too, so at least that's one room ticked off for this week already.

    I'm trying to catch up with the thread, but I'm only up to page 5 so far :eek:

    I particularly nasty case of CBA today, so boot me please, it really needs doing with a guest on the way :D

    Sending happy vibes to all of you. x

    Just hoovered and washed the kitchen floor by hand. When I look at the list quite a bit of it is done but I still won't qualify for a star as the dining room is the RoD! Hey ho back to some dot2dotting.

    Hope everyone is well ((hugs)) to those who are not. Might get chance to catch up at some point!. Just popped on to get the list for today not that I have done any flying this week :(

    DD is getting better. She's now taking milk again after 4 days of not eating anything. It's going to another few days before she's back to normal but she'll get there :)

    Friend is having baby today by section as it's not growing and it's making her ill. She went to the special care unit yesterday to see what will happen and it's really upset her :( I feel so bad as I can't be there as much as I want due to dd being ill :)

    Happy flying to all
    Crazy unorganised mum in need of help!
