    Pigpen well done getting the parcels wrapped but are they posted????:p Awh (((hugs))) pet I am sorry to hear you are miserable - you have probably been doing too much with all the decluttering from the bedrooms etc and you are worn out - rest up tomorrow and sit and put some stuff on ebay - what a lovely fella you have there - give him a big hug!

    I'm posting them in the morning.. I have to take 2 of the girls to opticians anyway (C and M) so I have to go out.. and I need a tesco run as we have no person food.. oh I still need bunny hay too.

    I'm not worn out.. I just got some blood results back and they aren't looking pretty.. :(

    I often hug him.. he thinks I am insane because I hug him so often lol I don't think he quite understands why he deserves to be liked.

    Hello :D yes I'm still alive, been flying like crazy this morning. Sitting room done, dining room done, under stairs cleared, caravan stuff in the house sorted, under stairs storage started....kitchens a bomb site still....DPs Dad came over for shower and wasn't embarrassed....bedroom still needs finishing, boys rooms still need starting. Met up with DS2s old school friend and his Mum this afternoon which was lovely.

    Best go, tired (((hugs))) to all x x x
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Today I have hoovered and erm....erm....ahh thats it went out for a drive with OH.

    Piggers...aww whats up sausage...sounds like your going through it again...and I get the prize foe No 1 crapola mate because I haven't seen you yet!
    I'm consistent at least.:D

    I also had my blood tests back today, well explained to me by my lovely Lyme literate Doctor, its fairly good news re cellular damage or rather ability to fix it...I'm pleased anyway.

    However I have the achiest of aching legs today, mainly I think from a lot of walking round Scarborough yesterday. Plus I have done 4 days now without using my walking stick so I'm a chuffed bunny. Trying to build stamina and all that.

    Hope you all get a good nights kip ad I'll catch up with you all tomorrow or rather later today. x

    noone else has seen me either so don't worry about it!!! lol

    Glad your bloods came back good.. mine didn't.. but I'll survive.. part of me wanted to write unfortunately on the end of that but that isn't quite how it was meant.. I shouldn't HAVE to survive I'm sick of constant crap now..

    We're just having a rough time.. DD1 being a moron and other stuff just all getting a bit much.. and I hate half term!!!! They just start calming down and they go back to school and disrupt it all again!!! then they get settled back at school and they are off again for easter.. it is all so depressing!

    Oh my god, im exhausted! What a day!

    Thanks to Toochoosey and Toots. Sebastian had a great day - thanks. He had soccer school in the morning after presents, then a quick bath and Frankie and Bennys then bowling. Hes having a pyjama party on Sat and looking forward to it now more than ever.

    I cant believe I own an eight year old :eek: Im not even 30 :eek: :eek: :rotfl:

    House is tidy... it looks great - just need to see what needs doing off the list still

    Hope youre all great xx

    ETA - I feel really guilty for not keeping up - having a real s!!t time at this end (mainly due to a lot of heartache for DS due to Ex-KH) Still trying to keep myself busy whilst dealing with LO's broken heart and fighting temptation to drive to Scotland and rip Ex's limbs from his body and ram them down his throat :D
    :)Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying:)

    Morning All

    Cute kittie!

    My mum's coming over this morning but other than that we've got nothing planned so far. Still got some of yesterday's list today as well as today's so I'll see how I get on. The shoes, coats, etc are all in the conservatory which is a week's job on it's own and usually gets left until it's warmer as it's absolutely freezing in there - DH is on about putting carpet down in there at some point to try and make it warmer. However I do need to sort the shoes out so I'll try and pull them out and sort them in the DR I think.

    Wednesday ~ Master bedroom

    Level One
    Declutter the floor.. and vacuum it!
    Level Two
    Put away all the shoes and clothes and bags and belts and ties lying around!
    Wash the curtains/nets and clean the window before rehanging them!
    Dust away the webs and fluff
    Level Three
    Thursday ~ Bathroom, hall, stairs and landing!
    Level One
    Declutter and vacuum/mop floors
    Sort coats, bags, shoes and dead umbrellas!.. Get rid of any that are no longer needed.
    Level Two
    Clean the bath, sinks, blah blah.. you know the list! don't forget the back of the toilet.. that gets gross.. and under the icky rim!
    Empty out and clean a cupboard.. put back the necessaries neat and tidy!
    Wash doormats, bathmats and shower curtains
    Level Three
    Tidy the towel cupboard.. any manky towels can be donated to the PDSA or dog rescue.. they always need them!.. and blankets etc
    Wipe the doors in the hallway and wash any curtains
    Wipe radiators.. front and back!

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Morning lovely flyladies,
    Toots - hugs.gif
    Rosepink- kiss.gif I can see lots of people answered your question but yes, anything that you take that causes you to have diahorrea can mean the pill might not be as effective as it should be. Really pleased you are getting some help with the house too.
    LadyL - love.gifHope you feel better today sweetie.
    Jinkypinks - smooch.gif Enormous great squishy huggles for you honey. You know where I am if you want to vent..
    Poppy - hugs.gif
    Tooch - Is the film Alpha Dog? It was based on a true story? That is the only one I can think of apart from Hostage, but in that one his kids are kidnapped only to make him do what the protagonists want so it's more of a side bar than a main plot. I love Bruce Willis, can you tell? :rotfl:
    Sunnygirl - hope your daughters ear infection clears up soon and very very cute kitten.
    Macpep - THIS is the cabbage galette that I make occasionally. It is very nice.
    louboutingirl - Did I miss where you reported back on your interview? If so, sorry, but how did it go?
    Greenbee - hope the throat is better today.
    SunnyGirl has a tummy bug so spent all day yesterday in bed but hopes to be back posting today.
    LadyL - sends her love to everyone.
    I have a kitchen full of baked goods; apricot and vanilla twinks, rock buns, cheese straws and a weetabix cake. Today I hope to make cheese, onion and pepper pasties and some fruit pie.
    head%20cold.gif Hope all the poorly flyladies feel better today.
    Off to find my list.
