OOh what happened at lunch time, did you all go on another jolly?

Have had lunch, put the hoover round and put on another load of washing. Feeling really CBA, but will try and pull myself together after a cuppa......

Good afternoon. Almost finished the kitchen (still putting off the oven:rotfl:)

3rd pregnancies/labours are usually more like the first labour.. but she might not find that helpful

My 3rd lasted 45 minutes start to finish:eek: I nearly gave birth in the corridor:rotfl:

Just got back from dentists - my face feels all horrible and fuzzy, my tongue feels like it belongs to someone else and I feel like I'm dribbling. Yes, you've guessed it, had to have a filling so had an injection . I hate feeling like this and got to go to pick up DD sounding like an idiot cos my mouth won't work properly - oh well

The kitchen is looking lovely now and it was worth all the hard work this morning. It was very bad and Pigpen how did you know my oven was so grim? I'm sure you're a bit psychic.

that's one of the (many) reasons I don't let me dentist give me anaesthetic until he can see me flinch!

A little bit? I'm pretty sure she's got a crystal ball which provides direct views into our houses... either that or she's enabled the webcam on my laptop through the tape that is carefully covering it...

Posting first and catching up after.

I did the kitchen/diner yesterday along with the living room hallway and stairs. Today I've done all the bedrooms. Got my bedding done and dried, all put away along with the normal washing, and I also did the throws from the living room and they're dry and put back.

Feeling a bit glum about work again tonight but onwards and upwards. Going to catch up a bit now.

toast decluttered
children collected
DS2's appt changed from 10:20 to 4:30 tomorrow for his stitches removing.. he has a trip booked with school which I had forgotten about.

I need to sort my head out for Moomins pituitary function test next Tuesday.. horrible horrible tests.. they said they wouldn't do it until after the next appointment in July and then sent me it through..

Best go gather up the remaining bits of detritus from the bedroom floor.

oh got most upset when I suggested not wallpapering in our room and painting it instead.. he isn't the most confident at wallpapering and there is no way I am crawling up to a 10ft ceiling!... so he sulked.. anyway... if he wants it wallpapering he is doing it! It is just a faff!

I am filing in holes once I've guzzled my cuppa OH is now making.. I loaded boths WM's and the TD (with Tiddles help) while waiting for him to bring the mugs down.. and he didn't so he can make it..

Off to eye up wallpaper... May require a trip to the enormous B&Q rather than the big one!.. they may have more papers in to choose from!
