    PPI Party Pooper
    Bleurgh, i feel like poop:o

    LO is still in hospital, i cried at the doc when she said they weren't letting her out:eek: Soooo embarrassing! Think i may be a little stressed;) Also have a stinking head cold and a ton of revision plus an assignment due on monday that i need to be in uni to do and am stuck in hospital.

    Anyhoo, have had a quick skim through the thread, hugs for Lady Liberty, and good luck to Soappie.

    My flying today has consisted of emtpying the DW!

    Oh dear, not a very productive flylady day today. Managed to hoover downstairs, washed one load of washing but too late in the day to put on the line so is on the airer (will not be using the tumble dryer after seeing how much electricity it uses!). Took the dogs for a walk in the afternoon. Not felt too good today after bumping my head on dd's shelf when sorting the laundry, clumsy me.

    You all seem to get so much done and I feel abit lazy looking at your lists. Its a bit like shovelling snow when its snowing with young kids, as fast as I'm tidying, they're getting more stuff out! Oh well, will hopefully get more of the list done tomorrow, thanks ladies.

    (((Hugs))) to those who want/need them.

    evening all,sorry i haven't been on today, been at my sisters helping her with more stuff, playing with my niece and gassing away. Me and my mother put up three lots of curtains + rails so her house is now looking gorgeous. Wish my house looked like that :o
    Was supposed to meet friends for tea but OH only just came in from work at 9pm so couldn't go. He feels so guilty as i hardly ever make plans to go out.
    ah well will go out another time.
    As soon as he's been in the shower going to have our tea and snuggle up on the chair, maybe watch
    (fall asleep) some tv.
