Err..... Hi all,

I feel REALLY bad. I have slipped. I have done not very much for quite a while.

I sat and looked around at the kitchen and lounge this morning and nearly wept. It's back in to a dreadful state.

So, I am going to start again and try to get myself airborne.

hello everyone,

I'm back on board today. I didn't post yesterday as i had DH at home, so we went to pick up the replacement coffee table, had a trip to staples, did the monthly ASDA shop, and went for my midwife appointment.

If that wasn't enough to tire you out, we then had my nephews first birthday party, so a meal out with the family, and lots of energetic kids. I had to have an afternoon nap to keep up. I'm still shattered today, but will try to get some bits done as the house is still resembling a junk yard and i'm running out of time to deal with everything.

On the bright side, DH noticed that i had tidied the pantry a bit, and i hadn't emptied it all and cleaned it as i wanted to, so maybe i am trying to be too thorough for the time being.

OK - plans for today - working to the ultimate aim that DH needs to have a mate round to help him dismantle the big desk and put in the loft at the weekend, put on the radiator, and move the cupboard. (also, not to kill myself in the process)
1) finish toiletry audit
2) reorganise toiletries so they take up less room, and are arranged by type
3) wash towels/flannels cheating here as i got them on first thing
4) wash another load of baby clothes
5) repack box for DH to put in loft
6) make chicken curry in SC with some to freeze
7) spend 30 minutes in the office decluttering/packing
8) spend 3 hours on school work
9) do yesterdays washing up
10) clean kitchen sink/draining board

hopefully that is achievable if i do it in chunks. best make a start - good luck everyone. I'm finding motivation hard today as it is raining, so i might have to find a suitable CD.

Michelle,xx

TNG/ Flyboy - wondered what you were up to? I find I lose it every few weeks and have to return to babysteps. It won't take you long to get back in control. No naughty step for you this time.

cha97michelle - you're heavily pregnant? Listen to your body - if you need a break take it and DELEGATE! DH plus friends / family could do some bits for you. Use this time to get into a habitual routine that you can manage with baby, i.e. swish & swipe, one wash + iron, dinner, 15 min tidy of one room and that's it! You'll need all your energy to take care of yourself and baby. Recommend major stocking up of meals in the freezer for first 6 weeks after baby arrives. Oh I'm getting quite excited thinking about you nesting - takes me back...

Anyway

Cheers for that, Punky. I was thinking it was just me.;)
