    Morning all,

    Had another lazy morning watching TV, and have had another naughty breakfast of chocolate spread on toast! lol

    Definitely no signs of cybermunchers for LadyL - maybe fruit toast muncher, but I think that's mainly me!:D

    I'm determined to fly this morning.

    Have made an important phonecall already this morning to help save myself some money when I'm supply teaching.

    OH has gone next door to see MIL, who finally came home yesterday afternoon - we all had chinese takeaway last night for dinner, as we'd normally go to her's for dinner on a Tuesday anyway. BIL and SIL were on top form as usual (SIL playing the martyr and doing everything she possibly could for MIL - making cups of tea etc but not making any for us), and even OH got fed up with them. He's agreed now that when we do eventually get married, that neither of them will be welcome at the wedding, because it'll be all about them! :T Sorry to sound catty, but they're really toxic people.

    Well I'm off to see what I can do to get some lists done.

    Anyone up for a HHC 11.30-12? I need to get motivated to fly.

    sexymouse xx

    PS xx_Jo_xx if you're reading this, please could you PM me to let me know if you and DS are still coming to the meet on Saturday, so I can arrange arrival times etc?
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    and some unlucky people have leaking 5+ years after having their last child at the same time as AF is due a visit and the GP says it will soon stop !

    There was a woman who on her 80th birthday expressed breastmilk! She had been a wet nurse for many years and her boobies just didn't know when to stop they had grown so accustomed to producing milk!

    Feeling a bit "stuffy" this morning. Have another huge headache which has really upset me as Ive had a week with none :( Also boshed my milk jugs on the side of the desk last night which was agony, and this morning they feel all hard and lumpy :eek: Surely its too early for milk ducts? Im only just on 20 weeks.



    I'm not sure if it's hayfever or bean related but I've been getting an awful headache and nose from about 4am every morning:( And my boobs have felt like they've been leaking for the past week:o

    Today's List:
