    Afternoon all :) hope you are all well. Well I have tidied all of the bedroom and now have only one place for my pills rather than about a million. Just got some new tablets to protect my bones (prednisolone is a b*gger) and they taste awful may try the lemon ones next time tutti fruity are definitely not!

    WM on, floors mopped, DW will be on in a mo going to try and get a wash out in the garden.Need to wipe round the bathroom next....

    Hope you are all ok :)

    2 more loads in the WM
    2 more out on the line
    TD loaded with all the stray wet socks and pants
    OH loaded the DW so we have clean plates for dinner tonight.. I got pork steaks.. nom!.. unsure though whether to bung them in gravy or put them in the tomatoes.. decisions decisions!

    Just having a cuppa and we need to set off for the gremlins.. why does 3pm come round so much faster than 7pm?

    Baby bits put away and the shopping for DD's 1 and 3 is deposited in their rooms.

    Might get the other cardy for the baby sewn together later.. then I can finish the one I started yesterday. I bought wash powder so I can get all the bits washed in a few weeks when the grots are at KH's and it is decent weather.. I need another changing mat to leave at OH's mums and I am looking for a small box.. no I'm not I just had an idea.. the box the thorntons freebie chocs came in at christmas might do.. and if it doesn't I'll get a small stacking box from the shop round the corner.. small box to keep baby toiletries in for when we stay as his mums.. saves dragging more than necessary back and forth each time! I need a travel cot for there too and a few bits of bedding I think, though I'll take a sleeping bag back and forth with me.

    Best go get the beasties!.. back soooooooon!!

    Just tried to make a doctors appointment for next Monday .....to be told it could be cancelled as both our resident doctors are stuck in America:eek::eek:

    I am really fed up of feeling ill,dizzy,headache and feeling sick similar to really bad travel sickness. Also feels like Im walking on sponge,as though the floor is rolling...I have to make LO stay in his pram when we go out as I have something to hang on to...its even worse when I walk without support.

    I have had the symptoms for a couple of years but it only happened every month or so...now its daily and is really affecting what I can do.....sorry for the moan I know there are lots worse off than me....OH thinks I am stressed but I think it may be more than that.....

    Most of list done will post later as on laptop and cant copy and paste on here....

    Love to all xx

    Hiya :) hope you are feeling better. I get this sometimes particularly after a bad cold. If you speak to the doctor they have a great tablet for it which helps. Before then though do you have any ginger tea or gingernut biscuits? They work pretty well. My doc recommended crystalised ginger to nibble on as it helps stop the sicky feeling, lol you can see the theme hee hee!

    Hope you are feeling better soon. Take it easy, I also find cold fizzy lemonade works too, as does opening all the windows to make the place really cold.

    ((Hugs))
