Hi all; I'm in again this week. Thanks as always to Flylady Central Command.:beer:
mlb I hope you're OK; sorry to hear you've had troubles.
Dustykitten uh, oh, that doesn't sound too good with the shower – hope it's not too expensive!
Valli gentle vibes being sent, that the poor gerbil will have a peaceful journey to the Summerlands.:(
I'm feeling a tad rough today; filthy headache, and struggling to locate any “spoons”, but will try my best to do justice to today's list.;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Done a few bits, for some reason I'm in a foul mood and ds1 is too. So he's in bed, having time out if not sleeping. I'm feeding bub then going to try and get the undersink cupboard done before ds1 gets up, as can't really do that with him around. Then fridge needs a clear out and floors need doing. Might treat myself to half hour in the garden then before I see what else I can do off the list. Need to eat properly at some point too - hula hoops do not count as a meal...So, there are these boys,
They kinda stole my heart,
They call me Mummy

Welcome to all the newbies.
Thanks to all those who were thinknig of me my Mums partner was diagnosed with Cancer last week it was a real shock to us all as we knew he had been back and forth to the Drs but there had never even been a mention of this before he goes into hospital in september (sorry head all mush and cant remember the date) for a glansectomy, he is only 50 so am just hoping that he is going to be ok have spent a lot of time on the phone trying to keep his spirits up.So if I disappear I haven't left just trying to keep strong so that I can be some sort of support to him and my mum.
Anyways I need to clean to get the house back together as it has got in a bit of a mess the last few days have done DS's room this morning and now need to get the kitchen done and find something to feed the kids for tea.
Big hugs to LL,LW,Diva and all those that need them.
Mummyyof5 hope you are able to enjoy tonight and hope your back is better soon xx

gerbil buried - was definitely dead this time. Lived to a ripe old age that one...about 4-and-a-half years.
so now we have 7 pets...
cat tag ordered for Jynx and attached to collar. Although she officially can't go out, because we already have an older cat Jynx has already investigated the garden, discovered she can get under the shed, tried to climb UP the shed wall because our older cat was gazing down at her from the shed roof and decluttered her bladder in the garden twice (good girl!) Forints collected - and I had to 'guess' which travel agents (we have two different Co-op agencies in Vallitown) and I knew they'd neen ordered from one - but I just got 'the number for the Co-op' from mum...anyway guess was spot on.
Hope you have a good time at the party MummyoffiveDon't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson
