    Morning kaz

    Wonder if the star jumps would help me?
    Slept badly - then had weird dreams and now feel really blearg.

    No reason (and I know many FlyLadies do have good reason - which makes me feel worse IYSWIM)

    Actually I think I do know what is wrong - I make great plans then end up doing nothing about them - wasting time and being a general miserable slob. Grrrr.

    Anyway sorry for unloading my nothing on you.

    lil-me - sorry your plans got mucked up
    Winchelsea - glad the move went well
    mummyslittleboy - hope you are feeling better after a night's sleep

    Good holiday for those going away
    Good - peaceful - successful weekend to everyone.

    Rather a long night here and hubby's phone has been ringing since 7. :eek:
    Feeling really tired but i'm gonna get on today and bed early tonight. Rhys already up and fed so thats him happy, the rest are still in bed. The kids don't seem to go to sleep until near midnight. Hopefully the summer scheme will up them in a better pattern.

    First is the kitchen today, sparkie didn't show up last night. :mad: I want my plugs. :rotfl:

    Anyone going on holiday, have a fantastic time.
    Happy birthday to anyone i've missed.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    mumto5 can I share your wealth with the less than 12 weeks preg thread?
    Delighted to help:D.

    Rach - Sent you a pm

    Winchelsea - Wow! What an accomplished lady you are! I have no formal qualifications only my experience as a NCT breast pump agent. I did alot of positioning and latching on with ladies who were having feeding difficulties.

    LadyLiberty - Glad he's safe and has contacted you.

    I have to take DD2 to a birthday party at 11. House is looking very sorry for itself. Anyone for HHC 9.45 - 10.15 and again 10.15 to 10.45?

    I'm going to jump in the shower now....

    Morning all,

    I don't know how i managed it but i just went to put my coffee on the table next to me and put it right on the edge instead. It went flying all over the carpet.:cool: I don't know what time OH is planning on coming over to start Ds2's room. I'm going to get showered and dressed now so i'm ready to help. Then i'm going to take the stickers off the wall, OH can help me move the furniture when he gets here.

    Thanks for the hug Dusty

    Showered, dressed, caffeine slurped, feeling slightly more normal.

    OK have (finally) phoned shop and arranged to get sewing machine serviced - collecting Thursday.

    Written shopping list - think I will go and get shopping next - rain looks as if it is easing off.

    Laters :hello:

    ETA Oh dear, hollyh. What a start to the morning - it's amazing how far a cup can spread :eek: Just be careful with the paint

    Morning all,

    Lovely to see the photo of Squeak pigpen - I'm not on FB either, so pleased you put one on here. Hope you are catching up on all of the missed sleep, and pleased to hear that your kidney function has returned to normalish. Hopefully you'll start to feel more like your normal self soon.

    GnB I'm pleased that your DD's surgery went well. I did think of you this week even though I've not been posting due to running around all over the place. Fingers crossed that the surgery to tighten the screw can be delayed for as long as possible.

    LadyL I'm glad that your "man in the US" is safe.

    Winchelsea I'm pleased that you are getting support from other wives, and that your DH has settled in well. Big hugs to you and your family.

    Froddy is there any news on when/where we might meet next week?

    Serena have a lovely holiday.

    Vanilla supportive vibes heading your way for you and DH.

    Flying here hasn't really happened much this week, as I've hardly been here, but have been flying at my Nana's. Today I only have to feed my M&D's cat in the evening, so the rest of the day is mine (back to look after Nana tomorrow), so I'm shooting into town to go to starbucks for fruit toast in a minute.

    Will try to catch up on a bit more flying when I get home.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
