I finished hoovering the stairs and had a major hot flush and had to sit down. I've just taken some more tablets and once we've put Ds2 to bed i'm not planning on doing anything else tonight. I hate feeling like this i've got so little energy it's pathetic.:cool:

Sandy - same here as cyclingyorkie and Toots said, can understand why you are wary but still don't like to think of you going alone but at least it's not a big journey on top, if you wanted us to, maybe cyclingyorkie and I could chaperone each other

Have I ever told you I love your no nosense approach to everything??:D:rotfl:I love reading your responses on not just this thread but others!

I will help DH with the decorating BUT will be careful and wont do anything stupid like swinging from lampshades or anything;) When I was PG with DS I decorated his bedroom and was constantly moving his wardrobe around as I was never happy with where it was:o

I do feel broken with everything going on though!!:p

Pigpen - same as what Smartie said she puts it so much better, I was going to say 'you are so mean, slave driver :D' Sorry about the fishy catastrophe, hope you get them sorted.

Thank you all so much, I was so scared that you would all tell me to get lost:o I should have known you wouldn't by how supportive you have all been so far.

My appointment is at 11.30 tomorrow, LW you might have to park the bus in a different car park and walk from there;) I'm ok going on my own, I'm used to dealing with things alone.

I know none of you are psycho's, maybe I like you all so much is because I have my sanity questioned on a regular basis!!
I should have known from the beggining this woman was a nutter.

toochoosey

Just got back from SW and as I thought.....GAINED 3 1/2 lb!!!!!! Better get on that coastal path over the next week or 2!!!!!
haven't done any other flying apart from remaking DD's bed earlier so tomorrow looks to be a busy morning as I want to be ready to go by the time I go to work!!!! So probably won't be here much just to have a look at the lists.....

I feel pretty broken too.. I think I have sciatica starting up.. again! and my hips and pelvis hurt... and my ancient knees are most painful.

It is about being sensible isn't it and not pushing yourself to exhaustion and not spending 9 months sitting there stuffing your face moaning you are getting fat! When you consider what women a few generations back would do on a daily basis when they were pregnant it makes me feel very very humble.. I don't have to go foraging for berries, or washing the whole families laundry by hand.. on a Monday. I don't have to prepare every sinlge meal from nothing. I don't have to work on a farm or down a mine... we are very very lucky our lives are so simple nowadays I hate to feel like a blob compared to ancestors.

pigpen Go you!!! dont know how you manage to cope with all your brood never mind decorate as well!!! but at least you have a good workmate now:D oh no what a mess - poor fish too they must be traumatised!

KH was never one to shirk decorating.. but did need a shove just the same usually.. see.. he had a good point! lol

Fishies seem to be fine in their square cake tin lol.. sat on the cooker!

Worksurfaces and kitchen floor and the pan cupboard are all twinkly once more

I am.. but there are very few things I expect of or suggest to others that I am not prepared to do myself. (other than the lists lol )

Jojo_the_Tightfisted

For goodness sake, don't switch the cooker on with the fishes in a tin of water on the stove - guppy soup could ensue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aw sandy you poor thing, at least now you and your family are safe. Course your welcome here!

Pigpen: -your just like woman, i feel for your OH :rotfl:
The poor fish, just after you'd cleaned the well, no consideration

Well i've done today, so another star please toots for thursday!

Done nothing today after having an upsetting conversation with a friend. Long story already vented on the famlies bit. Had a nightmare with Barclays :mad:.
Part way through my budget, so going to attempt to keep to it and rejoin the frugal living challenge if they'll have me back

Right going to sort some more paperwork out.

Sandy hun - you're daft. We would never tell you to get lost. We're all to nice for that! And I understand your concerns over anonymity etc. I hide behind my user name (even on the FL facebook group!) and I have my reasons (not because of a stalker but because of other things). A few flyladies know who I really am and they're lovely and honour my request for anonymity and can be trusted.

I'll be thinking of you at 11.30 tomorrow xxxx
