    .pigpen what a way you have with words - you made me giggle at the thought of that little bundle snoring!!:D Re: your list - you need to look at it and prioritise - I know they are all important but some maybe more important and urgent - group some together that could be done at the same time - come on woman you can multitask better than anyone - I am sure if you put your expert brain to work you can half that list.

    I am run ragged next week but some of it will roll over.. I am multitasking with everything, I have a baby feeding or wanting enertaining!

    pigpen's lists - be realistic though and dont put too many things on for a day or you might get really disheartened when you dont achieve it.

    POTS AND KETTLES POTS AND KETTLES

    piggers I seem to remember we had this conversation about the boys last year too!!!!!

    I have this problem every year.. then when these 2 are decided on i struggle with DD2

    then the highlight of the day was test driving my new wheels!!! No dont be silly of course I am not driving a car - an electric wheelchair! have decided on the model so have to arrange storage first.

    Oooh go you.. Look out everyone Mrs Davros is on the loose!! :p.. I hope it gives you more freedom!

    Mine is sleeping 8:30PM-9am but has feeds 11 and 5.. I can cope with anything so long as I get sleep

    She is actually very good mostly.. so long as i don't have the unmitigated gall to put her down!

    I did HHP first, so I'll match your HHC :j

    DH laughs like a drain when I point out that I'm Libran, so must be well balanced :rotfl:

    Morning all....hallelujah i've found the keys!!! Picked up something from kids bedroom floor and as i put it on shelf next to a pink bag i remembered they'd been playing with it the last time i saw keys.Lo and behold there they were!! So happy. DS back to nursery today and went in like an angel.I practically skipped home!! My first child free morning in what feels like months! Have checked my on-line banking,ordered a couple of bits off ebay for some hampers and checked e-mails. Put a load of washing on, washing up away, breakfast stuff cleared away and living room tidied just need to sweep and mop. Have de-cluttered tea-towel/cloth drawer and now looks lovely and tidy. Made beds. Got a load of apples from my parents garden that i'm going to make some crumbles and then just freeze the rest ready to use for something else. Need to hoover and dust. Also need to clean bathroom. Not bothering with the other one as waiting for a plumber. The floor has dried out quite well but gutted that had to pull up the oak flooring. Mind you the floor boards underneath look ok so might just sand it down. Ok now to fly. Bye bye for now.Have a good day all. Hugs. xxx
