    Natty pass MOT vibes.
    Smartie please take it very easy.


    What a night here, DS1 started feeling unwell,sore head, aches and pains all over, very pale and a temp of 39.7 so of to out of hours we went. The doctor thinks he is taking flu or the dreaded swine flu, then when we get home he starts throwing up. He didn't sleep much and we didn't sleep much. He's still got a sorehead this morning and very pale. Doctor said to keep him away from the rest, which should be good.

    DS2 should be back to school tomorrow, he's like a livewire this morning. DD still very pale but in good form so hopefully should be back soon.
    Now to get the 2 boys bathed then strip their beds again. Will phone chemist and see about more cream but it did say on the packet that you only needed to use it once so it must kill eggs and all. Then i need to hoover right through again.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

It's like a comedy sketch everytime i have to chase them.:cool: I'm going to have to re paper the dining room as they've chewed the wallpaper off.:eek:

    Made beds
    Fed naughty rabbits
    Been to the market
    School & Nursery runs
    Washed up

    Hugs to all that need them; especially Sarah, who we are thinking about during her 1st day back at work, Smartie, who really must sit down with feet up, everyone insists and you can't argue with flyladies 'en masse', people without heating, people with creepie crawlies or poorly bugs, broken bones, heavy hearts or general ickiness.

    You can get everything here, it's not just cleaning/organising it's soooo much more including the fab hair colour discussion and spelling/grammar correction :D

    Supposed to be working at mo so better go and do that really..... but will fly later, kitchen not too bad so shouldn't take long.
