Ok, confession time - haven't done a thing since getting in from work (apart from feed kids, bath them and put them to bed). Am too tired to do anything now, but I will get cracking tomorrow - I hope! House looks like somebody has turned it upside down and shaken it - can't face it!!!

Feeding, bathing and putting to bed of kids is not nothing, don't be too hard on yourself

Aw - thanks for that - it does feel like a full time job in itself! Finding it difficult to find enough hours in the day at the mo! Am also pregnant, and soooo tired!! Day off work on Thursday to look forward to though!

Amen to that one... I've been up the stairs about 3 times already with my two so not getting any further with things and now too tired so I'm enjoying a glass of vino and CSI.

The kid routine is enough to exhaust anyone, my DH has a nervous breakdown if I ask him to one of those things Rolls eyes

My house always looks like somebody has turned it upside down and shaken it about 10 minutes after the kids get in :mad:

Relax this evening, the mess will still be there in the morning;)

I'm trying to summon up the energy to get back into the habit of going for an hour walk every night (that I'm not at work) before bed with DH - need to do something - I've got 3 months til I go on hols and I'd like to shift 1.5 stone, preferably without forking out for a fat club meeting every week (cause I always cheat so it's a waste of £5+) - plus my blood pressure was higher than would like when at the docs (although that goes up every time I see a white coat) - if doesn't go down a bit, they'll stop me from taking the pill....

I'm walking most nights if I haven't done my 10,000 steps during the day - I've lost half a stone in the last two weeks and feel SO much better. Yesterday was a bad day, so at 10.30 at night I was marching round the village and did just over three miles! Even though I went to the gym this morning I've still got 3500 steps to do tonight, which I'll do after I've finished the work I need to do and sorted out my stuff for tomorrow.

No point in doing any flying here. Utility room is still a work in progress so stuff is everywhere. Luckily they're very clean and tidy builders (in fact, the utility room floor may be cleaner than it has been for a while )

Better get on and do some work....

vanilla thats sounds promising - I hope the school gets things sorted for you all.
tc3061 I bet your Mum has had a few tears too - have a huge squishy (((hug))) and a pat on the back for keeping going - its not easy when you are down - you are getting there - every little bit you manage is making a difference so keep going honey
brodie sounds like you are in spring cleaning mode already :T:T:T
smartie it maybe a short list but it has quite a lot of hard work on it - please take it easy and think of the bean xx
mudders hello sweetie xx
Dusty yes i totally agree - the internet, emails, the thread can all be very time consuming!! Hope DS's mouth isnt too sore and the brace settles down quickly
sexy yes it sounds like you are a bit run down - so need to get your rest and eat well to build yourself up again - stop feeling guilty!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!! I AM NOW THE VERY PROUD NON~OWNER OF AN OVERDRAFT!!!!!!!!!!

I now have £167 a month free to pay off something else quicker.. lucky me!!

:T:T:T:Tpigpen thats fantastic - you will soon get rid of your storecard if you throw that £167 at them - well done!! and *blows raspberry* to KH - what a prat - never mind you will get him sorted eventually - he really isnt on this planet.
keys awh hugs hun thats so not fair - hope tomorrow isnt too painful and then it will all heal properly and you will be painfree.
tc3061 the little oiks! WTG your DS for sticking up for his MUm - that just shows how well brought up he is (((hugs)))
Jo I am getting seriously worried about you - are you sure you havent become a Stepford wife without telling us :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: seriously I am well impressed with all the cleaning and sorting you are doing - it will all help when the big move comes :T:T:T:T:T
AnW'sMum *thud* toots lands on the floor:rotfl:
cazzab we all have days like that pet so dont be hard on yourself - and dealing with children after tea is no easy job either - dont try to play catch up just do what you can on whatever day you are on - so if you are cleaning tomorrow do the wednesday list - if by the end of the week you have time to do some more you can look at the bits of lists you missed - we have all been doing this for ages so be patient and try to keep doing small amounts and you will get there too. ETA pregnant - no wonder you are tired - you have to pace yourself and get OH roped in to help.
Alizarin :mad::mad: to BF - I hope you made him clear it up -hope the jaw feels easier in the morning - you will have to start training BF I think;)
Dusty when do you go?

had a really nice day at MacMillan and went to Mr A for a prescription when I got back - have done 1 x WM, S&S the kitchen and the bathroom and thats about it - still tired and 'No' I am not pregnant (that would be another miracle) so heading to bed once i have done the stars
see you all tomorrow

hugs to everyone especially LadyL
toots xx
